So what is 000 Magazine? It is a magazine about the world of Porsche, but to say it as a magazine is like saying Porsche is a car company. Both descriptions, while technically accurate, seem woefully inadequate to those who know. 000 isn’t something you merely read; it’s an immersive journey. From the instant you receive and unbox your copy, to the bittersweet moment you realize you’ve arrived at the last page, co-founders and editors Pete Stout and Alex Palevsky transport you across time and space, making you feel as though you stand shoulder to shoulder with the individuals who have indelibly shaped Porsche’s rich history.
Porsche, after all, is about cars. But to 000, these cars are not mere physical objects, they are triumphant champions and often unexpected, unsung heroes. Street cars pitted against race cars, and race cars tasked against the unimaginable. After experiencing stories like these, you may start to believe cars have souls just like the craftsmen who painstakingly created them.
The driving force behind 000 Magazine from it’s first day of inception, “ex nihilo,” latin for “out of nothing,” to today is to capture these stories with unparalleled depth of research, to uncover nuances and untold details in a format that respects the efforts of the people and the cars that have woven the fabric of Porsche’s revered culture today. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but 000 goes well beyond a thousand words. While photography captures a moment in time, skillful words can reach back in time and capture moments not measured in seconds, but in days, weeks, or even months. 000 Magazine artfully combines eloquent prose with breathtaking photography, creating museum-quality issues that celebrate the human spirit’s courage to conquer what seems impossible, only to realize the inevitability of it all in hindsight.
Ultimately, 000 is a testament to passion over reason. In this digital age we live in today, few would dare to double down on print media. It defies reason for 000 Magazine to exist, but it does, thanks to the unwavering passion that fuels every decision made by the talented team at 000. For those who have experienced 000 and those who share our passion, they grasp the profound truth that excellence has always eluded the confines of mere reason. Is 000 a magazine?
