The RGruppe
Founded in 1999 by Freeman Thomas and Cris Huergas, two die-hard Porsche 911 enthusiasts, the RGruppe became famous for its unconventional and very individual interpretations of how a classic air-cooled Porsche should look. Slogans like “The R Gruppe is not an automobile club, but a brotherhood” or “It’s all about the cars and the people … leave the ego behind” and “We are called the R Gruppe, we do not live by the rules of others” describe the spirit of the group. By modifying their early Porsche 911, inspired by role models such as Steve McQueen, Porsche’s light sports car and the Californian hotrod scene, the club paved its own way and today enjoys a particularly good reputation worldwide.
