Alex’s life in the wine industry revolves around fleeting moments, vintages are celebrated then gone once the cork is pulled. In 996, he found a different kind of permanence. The car represents the sensory half of a curated two car solution. Alongside a rugged Cayenne 957 off road project, the 996 serves as a private retreat for the soul. Alex avoids the frantic pace of mountain passes, instead choosing rhythmic coastal drives and morning coffee runs. He often sits at a sidewalk table just to admire the car’s lines from a distance.

Alex’s Arctic Silver 996.2 is a humble tribute to the classroom sketches of his childhood.
The year this Arctic Silver 996.2 left the factory, a young boy in Taiwan had already claimed its future on paper. Twenty years later, and as the fifth car in his personal journey, Alex’s childhood sketch has materialized into a Silver Bullet, a rare factory Aerokit specimen with only 47,000 kilometres, wearing a 1995 license plate to mark his birth year.
