Neunelfer Manila Year 2 held October 6, 2024 at Parqal Lifestyle Mall
Despite the rain, Parqal was filled with a sea of Porsche vehicles and owners – celebrating the love for the brand and the heritage.
From a wide array of GTs, Carreras, and Turbos, and even rare models such as the 911 S/T that showed up, there really is no substitute. Porsche is Porsche.
Step into the world of one the best celebrated automotive brands that is Porsche. The curves, the headlights, the rear – one look from afar and you’d know it’s a Porsche.
With its classic look, it has become one of our dream cars, whether you’re a car enthusiast or not, driving a Porsche is a dream come true. Even seeing one on the road will make your head turn. What more if it’s a 911. Or, a sea of 911s. Ah, heaven.
Neunelfer Year 2
Last October 6th, Neunelfer Manila held its exclusive Porsche meet at Parqal lifestyle mall in Aseana City.
A gathering of 911 and 912 owners. Why those models specifically? Here’s a fun fact: NEUNELFER is the German word for the original Porsche 911. Basically the event is called 911 Manila 2024. Simple.
The first Neunelfer meet was a two/three year concept and discussion with different owners, making it finally happen last year at Circulo Verde.
For the second year, making it even more meaningful, Neunelfer Manila Year 2 was held simultaneously with Luftgekuhlt in California – celebrating a decade of Porsche gathering. We must say, the passion is strong with the brand and the community.
From 7AM until 1PM, Parqal mall donned a sea of 911 and 912. Despite the rain, the Porsche community showed up for the love of 911.
From all the Porsche cars parked in the venue, we were able to feast our eyes on rare sightings like the 911 S/T (produced for Porsche’s 60th year), GT cars, Carreras and Turbos. A stunning array of Manila’s finest Porsche if you must say.
Meet Kevin Carlos
Kevin Carlos is one of the organizers for Neunelfer Manila and of course, a passionate Porsche owner. What started as a dream is now Kev’s greatest reality: owning his own Porsche, a 997 Carrera S that is.
Don’t give up.
Kevin Carlos, Neunelfer Manila
Starting off with owning his Toyota 20 years ago, Kev worked hard to achieve his dream car.
With that simple advice, Kev is definitely driving in the most beautiful form, taking his baby out in search of good coffee shops in the city or attending another car meet, with plans of driving it around more in Luzon.
Above all, Kev loves taking his Porsche out to visit car shops, if you know what we mean. And with a car like Kev’s, he loves driving it around with his Yeezys on for that spot-on comfort.
Despite being a hands-on organizer throughout the whole event, you can approach Kev anytime and talk about cars.
There’s No Substitute
The love of the brand and the car itself is evident in the Philippines. With the growing Porsche community, all owners share the same passion for all things Porsche. But more than that, what makes the car special are the owners.
No matter what Porsche model you have, when everyone is together in a meet such as this, it’s a never-ending appreciation and talks about what modifications you’ve done, where you have taken your car, what’s your top speed, and anything car-centric.
And that’s what makes each Porsche owner distinct – adding more personality to an already beloved brand. Rain or shine, one thing’s for sure.
These Porsche owners will show up. All for the love of the brand, the car, and the Philippine car culture.
One thing’s for sure, more Porsche cars for the 3rd run of Neunelfer Manila in 2025!
