Porsche - “Das Treffen” in Thailand

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

‘Das Treffen’. ‘The meeting’ in its native German. Today these words are on the tip of a thousand tongues across the vast urban sprawl of Bangkok.

Since the 1960s #porsche has exported vehicles to the Thai capital, creating a small but loyal fan base that now spans several generations. The recent resurgence in air-cooled culture has driven many Thai owners to bring mothballed cars out of storage and in the last five years #porsche fever has tangibly gripped Bangkok.

What was still missing, however, was a means to harness this burgeoning passion, a proper #porsche gathering to rival the established meets in the US, Europe and Australasia. There was nothing of the sort in Southeast Asia; not until a man called Sihabutr Xoomsai appeared.

Xoomsai was inspired by his own passion

Xoomsai, known as Tenn to his friends, was first inspired by his own passion for #porsche. “I always had a thing for #porsche since I was a kid. The first #porsche I drove belonged to my father’s friend. He came over to our house one day in a brand new 964, tossed me the keys and asked me to get them something to drink. I never forgot that day – the sound, the smell and the kick in the back.”

 “The most important thing I learnt that day,” Tenn recalls, “is that the best way to enjoy #porsche is to share it. Since then that is what I tried to do – to share my passion with my friends and fellow enthusiasts.”
