Pablo Escobar | Porsche t-shirts
Hi everyone,
I’m stepping out of my comfort zone and decided that this would be the year I started acting on my desires to start putting some ideas into practice. One of those ideas has been this one you see here. This design was inspired by my Colombian heritage and love for aircooled Porsches. My first limited edition “Outlaw” t-shirt spotlights the lesser known side of Pablo Escobar’s racing collection which included his 1974 Porsche 3.0 911 RSR IROC that he converted to a “935” race car. I hope you like it and consider purchasing one for yourself or for someone (or both). I only carry sizes L and XL at this time. Thanks for looking. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

What do you mean? Really? This is an extremely homicidal mass/serial murderer of families, police and their families, and any politician in the way in the most gruesome methods to scare anyone talking. Why the hell would you think pablo is any better than porsche historically. ferdinand was an ss member.
Porsches history is based on the nazi era. Same with Daimler Mercerdes Benz, Siemens etc etc etc. We don't mention it in an advertising way although the history is tainted. I know pablo was seen as an hero in Medellín maby becausehe payed for silence instead of killing anyone even suspected of talking, but really, 2025, WTF!!!!!

Infamous celebs and their Porsche cars was what I was thinking here.

I am not a buyer. I don’t even want one for free.
But good luck, maybe I’m in the minority and you make a ton of money.

Wow! Harsh responses so far.
When I first saw it I thought "ha ha, coke dealer, in an outlaw Porsche" and thought I'd probably get one. I'm on the fence now, with the additional details... 5ickride - I like the idea (infamous celebs in their Porsches). And I like that you're stepping out of your comfort zone. In the last couple of years, since being laid off from a job of nearly 30 years, I went back to school and changed careers and have been stepping out of my comfort zone on a regular basis. Each time I learn and grow. There are things today that I look at and think "that'll be easy" that I would have been afraid to try even 2 years ago. And even though not every idea/task will be successful, keep trying. You'll learn and grow from the one's that don't work out, too.

I might buy a James Dean Porsche shirt, done right. I have tons of piques in various Porsche logos. Some from Thailand Pablo Escobar is a mass murderer and has flooded many parts of the world with cocain. Porsche has an extensive nazi collaboration history on top of that the mellian so if you feel that is in any way ok, then, yes, i guess this thread is a good idea.

Interesting. It is history and part of the 70/80s Porsche scene. I don’t need one as I don’t wear car shirts but I think plenty will buy it.

Appreciate the responses. I considered everything before pursuing this little project. I’ve seen many shirts at the mall with Escobars mugshot printed on tees. Not for my taste but whatever. I know the history, my mom grew up with it so I don’t need a history lesson here, but thanks. It’s not that deep, I’m focusing on a very small detail of his life that involved his Porsche hobby. That’s all. I only printed 60 tees and will move on to something different next. I’ll wear one at Porsche meets in the tristate so if you see me come by and say hi.

Are you selling your 930 then? I wouldn't want you "tainted" by owning a Porsche....

Porsche t-shirt art.
PM sent. Also, good luck with the endeavor 5ickride. Thanks very much Oheggem for your insight, albeit this is a for sale ad and your holier than though attitude disturbs the intent of this forum. A logical extension of such sophomoric criticism is that driving a Porsche today inappropriately ignores the horror of Naziism. Which is pure BS, as is your opinion in a "for sale" forum. At risk of overly opining - two quotes, one for 5ickride: “Creativity takes courage.” – Henri Matisse And one for others:“The principles of true art is not to portray, but to evoke.” – Jerzy Kosinski
