Lara Newton talks us through the story of her famous “Lee Green” Porsche 911T.
Coming up on 8 years since it was restored, Lara Newton (aka Thatporschegirl on Instagram) and her 1969 Porsche 911T are something of a staple in LA’s community; “The first time I realised that I could own a Porsche was when I was 12 years old. My mom invited me to visit her friend’s house to see her new car. The women in my neighbourhood mostly drove station wagons or minivans, so seeing her in a brand new Porsche was a revelation. It was definitely one of the most formative moments of my life.”
