1. Its Endless Style

Cars are like fashion; you know right away what decade it belongs to. The Porsche's style has a way of fitting right in with whatever year it is, but its appearance has always been distinct to Porsche. From the headlights to the roundish shape of the body, anyone can tell instantly you are driving a Porsche before spotting the crest on the hood. What better way to be thankful than knowing your Porsche will never be confused for anything else on the street?   

2. Its History

From the crest to the 356, Porsche has a rich history. You can trace a Porsche's history all the way to Ferdinand Porsche himself and his heirs. With a history like Porsches, you can educate all with your fun facts during Thanksgiving dinner. They will all be impressed and you will be thankful that the Porsche has such a past.  

3. Its 911 Turbo

Do you own a Porsche 911 Turbo? Another thing to be thankful for is that this Porsche is the fastest yet. The 2016 Porsche 911 Turbo S has 580 hp and can go 0-62 mph in 2.9 seconds, and the 2017 Turbo is just as fast. It can achieve that with the bigger turbos, a revised intake system, and a 7-speed twin-clutch automatic gearbox.  

4. Its On-Screen Time

Everyone appreciates the Porsche, so much so that they are willing to give it some on-screen time in movies as well as television shows. From action movies to rom-coms, the Porsche has been a star. Spend the evening trying to see how many movies your family can think of that feature a Porsche. You will be thankful that the Porsche has saved an evening of awkward introductions or hungry, turkey-craving family members.

5. Its Fans

Porsche has many models that speak to different consumers, and for that reason, it has many fans. The younger generations have acquired a love for Porsche perhaps because their father/grandfather owned one. Artists sing about it because they understand the culture that comes with a Porsche. Celebrities often show that high-status image by owning/driving a Porsche. You could always be thankful that you are part of a community that appreciates the Porsche.
