PCA—The 1964 356 was near the end of the line for Porsche’s original rear-engined sports car, and the SC was a factory hot rod.

Picture this. You’re behind the wheel of your dream 911, the wide road unfurling before your eyes like a glorious ribbon of asphalt, the snow-covered peaks of the Swiss Alps standing tall in the distance. You settle in and run the car out in the first few gears. The engine, supple and smooth with a hint of brashness, stretches its legs until you reach that flowing tempo that feels just right. |

Marqued—Joel Dondis understands the value of mentors and the importance of leaning on the accumulated wisdom of those around him to shine a light on his own path. A celebrated chef and entrepreneur in his native Louisiana, Dondis learned at an early age that humility – the capacity to admit when he doesn’t know what he doesn’t know – is perhaps the defining mark of wisdom. This insight has carried him far, both in life and in cars.

Photo by Paul Merrick. Chicago Region. "This is a photo of my 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera S in front of a statue of Major Richard Winters, next to the Normandy field where he and his Band of Brothers landed on June 6, 1944.
"The statue is located about two miles from Utah Beach. It is without a doubt a fitting tribute to a great American hero."
