Show Notes

In this episode, The Insider crew hits the road to Marietta, Georgia, to visit a 914 legend: George Hussey, founder of Automobile Atlanta.  Known globally as the go-to source for rare parts, George opens up about building his Porsche empire, surviving the shift to internet commerce, and the story behind his iconic ex-Brumos/Peter Gregg Porsche 916.

Plus, we sit down with Frank Wiesmann, Manager of Product Communications at Porsche Cars North America. Frank shares how a childhood car obsession led to a career at Porsche, the secrets behind how Porsche plans new model launches, and what it takes to get on the invite list.
