Brumos Porsche

  The most famous Porsche distributor in the USA has built its reputation on racing tracks. Brumos was the largest dealership in the United States.


Already a car distributor in Miami Springs, businessman Hubert Brundage decided to hire a Porsche in competition in 1955. As such, he will be the very first to line up a Porsche outside the European continent. BTW, do you know that BRUMOS name is the short telex of Brundage Motors ?

Initially painted yellow or orange, Brumos cars adopted theire famous white, red and blue lines livery in the late 1960s. And it is under this iconic livery that Brumos will win 15 titles and 48 victories in the IMSA championship.


To date, the Brumos team is the most successful in the Daytona 24 hours history with four titles, all won with the support of Porsche: in 1973 and 1975 at the wheel of 911 Carrera RSR, in 1978 with a 935/77 and in 2009 with a Riley
MK XI using a 3.99 liters Porsche engine.


On the occasion of the 2019 Daytona 24 Hours and the 12 Hours of Sebring, the official Porsche team decided to repaint its 911 RSRs in the colours of Brumos.
