In the latest instalment of the Sunday Drives series, the CEO of Porsche Cars Canada, Marc Ouayoun, takes us on a whimsical tour of the European haunts on his doorstep.
Marc Ouayoun took over as President & CEO of Porsche Cars Canada in January 2018. Born in Dunkirk, France, in 1971, he has worked in the automotive industry for 20 years and has owned an impressive number of Porsche models during that time, ranging from a 944 and 928 to classic examples of the 911 and 930 Turbo. His current car, driven with regularity, is an immaculate 964-generation Carrera 4 Cabriolet.
Ouayoun’s career with Porsche began in 2006 and he rose rapidly through the ranks to become Managing Director of Porsche France in just five years. Following an 89 per cent sales increase in his home market and the completion of a fourth Porsche Experience Centre, at Le Mans, Ouayoun’s talent and dynamism saw him seconded overseas. Now, from his new base in Toronto, he continues to thrive, expanding the Porsche network and increasing sales with his infectious enthusiasm and evident passion for the brand.
