Maximisation of minimalism. Devotion to design. Elegance. One: rebel, cult figure, eternally young, alone. The other: magician, legend steeped in contradiction, never without her. Conjunction of opposites, united in passion. The number 130 on the bonnet of James Dean’s Porsche 550 Spyder: symbol of a movement that transcends death. In Salzburg people could tell when Herbert von Karajan was there by the car parked at the offices of its famous festival hall: “God drives a Porsche.” Furrows and flat surfaces, curves and corners, aggression and graciousness, strength and elegance, speed and solidity, focussed concentration and casual playfulness: seemingly disparate forces in precisely calibrated balance. Breaking free of the confluence of automated currents, setting one’s own course, experiencing the pleasure of authenticity beyond efficiency. Refuge for individualists, nonconformists, the avant-garde. Exclusive, yet right in the middle of it all. Targa Florio, Le Mans: dream-like places, built out of triumph and tragedy. One: a victorious hero. The other: still a hero in defeat.

  • Preparacion Irmscher De Opel
    Éxito por Competencia:Retrato de la casa Irmscher. La historia de la casa Irmscher y del éxito mundial del grupo de empresas Irmscher están íntimamente vinculados al fundador. Günter Irmscher, y a su carrera profesional. Como joven ingeniero de una empresa de la industria de aceites minerales, y como persona de enlace con la industria automovilística, despertóse su pasión por el deporte del motor. Günter Imscher participó en todas las competiciones: Circuitos, montaña, rallyes. En las horas de la tarde y de la noche se preparaban los vehículos, en los fines de semana se tomaba parte en las competiciones. Con una preparación cuidadosa, con pocos medios, pero con alto conocimiento de la conducción, era posible, en aquellos tiempos, lograr éxitos. Günter Imscher lo consiguió, y pronto pasó a ser uno de los mas conocidos deportistas alemanes del motor. En 1964 ganó sobradamente la copa ONS, en 1965 el campeonato de coches de turismo. Con el copiloto Harald Andersen venció Irmscher en 1967 con una ventaja de 26 minutos en la vuelta a Europa. A parte de sus cualidades como deportista del motor, Günter Imscher ganó rápidamente renombre como especialista en motores. En 1968 osó por último establecerse por su cuenta primeramente sin vinculación a ninguna marca. El capital inicial lo obtuvo del producto de la venta de su Kadett de rallye. El know-how (saber como) adquirido por Günter Imscher antes de la fundación de la casa y su consecuente puesta en práctica sigue siendo hoy dia garantia del éxito del grupo de empresas. La casa Irmscher se expansionó rapidamente, especializándose en vehículos de la marca Opel.
