It's simple, the hobby and lifelong affliction has turned into a business. The collecting of parts, helping others with their cars, and day to day work understanding the Porsche history, and actually taking part in some of it has led to a full time effort in the Porsche aftermarket. The past few years have come from the weekends, to everyday in many facets of Porsche activity, as the website discusses. Many people have said to hang my shingle long ago, but I wanted to make sure the entrance is right, and the service is like no other. Lüfteknic will be here for the long haul, and will carry the torch for Porsche enthusiasts now, and for the future generations. Offering Parts, Service, Restoration, and Motorsport for the 356, 911, 930, 964, 993, 996 and 997. We drive Porsches, and will continue to do so. The word "Lüfteknic"
Our goal is to become the most respected member in the Porsche community. You will see us at upcoming shows and meets, new products/parts on our own label, and bringing some interesting Porsches back from the dead. Our inventory will be expanded. We want our website to become the most comprehensive in content, graphics, pictures, parts, and how-tos. The website will be enjoyment for those who come to find parts and information for their Porsche. The site will also have worldwide Porsche news, and club activities that are "no miss" events. We will continue to support the few Porsche GT teams in the ALMS, and Grand-Am, as well as the local club racing members. Our Customers As we grow and introduce new products, we want you, our customer, to inquire about your Porsche needs and desires. Give us your feedback, good and bad. We will tailor our business to what you our customers need, developing helpful techniques and products that you require. Feel free to voice your opinion. We will listen and are here to help. The decades of ever developing knowledge are here for you to use to be able to enjoy your desire to drive the car with the most fun involved. Enjoy!
Apprenticeship Program
High School Internships Many of our area high schools have developed a required internship program for their students to participate in during their junior or senior year. If a candidate is interested, they must have a 3.0 GPA and maintain that throughout their stay. The length and type of program can be tailored to fit the individual needs of the student. Each student is responsible, as they would be on the job, to take an active role in the development of goals and tasks. Students have a say in what they want to learn and accomplish. This can be challenging at times, but very rewarding with seeing their ideas come to fruition. There are limited spots each semester, so get that paperwork in early. Parents/Guardians are involved in every step of this process, but most the job will rest on the intern. Please email a cover letter, school requirements, and resume of any work experience and interests to: info@lufteknic.com. College Internships

The
Story
Wanting
a name that was smart, clean, simple, and memorable, Lüfteknic
uses parts of the German language, having its roots in "lüft"
meaning air, and "technisch" meaning technical. These
roots come to form the Lüfteknic name. The Porsche marque has
had its roots with air-cooled engines for 50 years, and our efforts
are towards the 356 to 996 lineage of automobiles, the Porsche heritage.
The technical efforts in mechanics, repair, and development make
up the other part of our name. A few key staff members are working
with us, and hopefully over the next couple of years these programs
will grow, and our staff and facility will have to as well. 
Goals
Here
at Lufteknic we value education and today's youth. With that in
mind, we have created a program for high school and college students
that wish to further their education within a professional environment.
There are opportunities within mechanics, tuning, public relations,
motorsports, and design. Our staff is a diverse group with a wide
range of education and experience that can help with young peoples
future decisions. The marketplace that the youth of today face is
much more competitive, fast paced, and difficult than ever before.
Lufteknic is at the forefront with e-commerce, marketing, and the
Porsche aftermarket growing each day. It can be very exciting for
a young person to witness and take part in. This program is available
to young people that are between the ages of 18-25. We work with
each candidate to bring a program together to accomplish the goals
set forth in the first day. After an apprenticeship program has
been completed, it can lead to a permanent position on staff. If
a candidate has other goals, they can leave Lufteknic with the professional
work experience needed to get to the next step in their career.

In
recent years, colleges have developed real world working experience
programs for their students. We welcome the opportunity for students
to garner real world experience. Programs can be diverse and are
tailored to each student's desire, concentration of study, and length
of time in the program. Students must have a 3.0 GPA, and also maintain
that average throughout their internship. These programs can be
scheduled during the school year or summer and winter holidays.
Students are expected to take an active role in developing what
they want to accomplish, and we will work with them in honing a
well rounded program worthy of the school credit they receive. This
type of internship can be challenging to maintain along with the
other responsibilities of school, so time management is an important
skill. Please email a cover letter, school requirements, and resume
