What began as a shared love for vintage Porsches between two friends has grown into a trusted name in the classic car world. Nick and Jimmy founded Nine1 Motors out of their passion for iconic classic cars, with the Porsche 911 as their great love. To make the story behind their cars visible in the showroom, they chose three large prints on aluminium dibond from Profotonet. Each photo tells its own chapter of their story.
For the showroom, the duo chose three prints of 80x120 cm on aluminium dibond. The photos are printed on premium Fujifilm glossy photo paper and then mounted on aluminium dibond. The sleek, modern material lets the deep colours, high gloss and finest details of the classics come fully into their own.
In this top view, two special models stand side by side: a mint green Porsche 964 and a rare yellow 964 TechArt. An enormous amount of blood, sweat and tears went into that mint green 964. Jimmy, the technical man of the duo, rebuilt it completely by hand and brought it back to its original condition and paint. After all that work, Nick and Jimmy would most have liked to keep it themselves. The yellow TechArt next to it is a special version that is highly sought after among Porsche collectors.
The grey Porsche on a path full of autumn leaves evokes a special memory. This is the very first Porsche that Nick and Jimmy bought together: the car with which the Nine1 Motors adventure began. The warm autumn colours form a beautiful contrast with the iconic grey paint and make this image a timeless reminder of their start.
The white Porsche Carrera with a surfboard on the passenger seat stands for the biggest driving force behind the company: freedom. For Nick and Jimmy, the freedom of entrepreneurship is the most important reason to do what they do. The relaxed surf culture also fits seamlessly with their lifestyle and the optimism they want to radiate.
Besides being an entrepreneur, Nick is also a talented photographer. Nine1 Motors has long been more than just an address for classic Porsches: in their own webshop, Nick and Jimmy also sell merchandise, such as shirts and vests. His eye for composition and the museum-quality prints drew such enthusiastic reactions that a new line will soon be added: their own captured images as Wall Art. Through the webshop, you can then order the photos, printed and finished directly by Profotonet. That way, every car enthusiast can hang a piece of this passion on their own wall.
