Is there a word that neatly sums up our enthusiasm and motivation for owning and driving a Porsche, or just driving in general? After all, it is a matter of choice – and anyone who owns a car that transcends the need for mere transport, whether it be a Porsche or otherwise, does so because driving means far more than just getting from A to B. It’s a difficult concept for non-car folk to get their heads round, and to many it probably just seems a bit shallow. But if there is a word or a description, then I would call it ‘passion’ or, as my well-thumbed Chambers Twentieth Century Dictionary would describe it: ‘an enthusiastic interest or direction of the mind’. It also mentions ‘ardent love’ and ‘sexual desire’, but frankly that’s taking it all too far for me. It’s still just a car, after all.     Where am I going with all this? Well, I would like to think that it’s something that runs through every issue of 911&PW. Every feature is the subject of someone’s enthusiasm and passion for Porsche and for driving and owning one, whether that’s the owner or the writer. Take this month’s cover story: a bunch of hardcore 911 freaks on a balls-out Euro trip taking in some of the best Euro roads and Monte Carlo rally stages, before hitting Classic Le Mans. Don’t you just want to be there too? Oh, and these guys shipped their cars in from all over the world. That’s passion.    What else? Boxster not quite doing it for you anymore? Reader David King did his homework and decided that a Turbo conversion was the way to go. Check it out in the October issue. Or how about contributor John Glynn – a man as passionate about Porsche as I’ve ever met. Faced with a transport crisis on a working trip to California, he bought himself a sound but somewhat sandblasted 911SC and lived the American dream for a couple of weeks, before shipping it back to Blighty. Again see the latest issue for his story.
