Reeves fell in love with the sound produced by the car’s all-new “Sport Exhaust”, a dual-flow exhaust system which used two catalytic converters. But more importantly, he was wowed by how it felt, especially when gliding through the PCH canyons (via Porsche).

So when the beloved car was stolen while he was filming a movie, Reeves actually mourned his loss. He believes the thieves targeted his Porsche in particular because that model had one of the latest air-cooled engines under the hood.

After ‘The Matrix’ star got over his grief, he decided he wanted another 911, but one that clearly belonged to him. So Reeves spoke to Porsche’s Customer Consultation Center in the famous 90210 area code of Beverly Hills and asked if the Stuttgart-based company would help him customize his all-new 911. Even with the influence and prestige that made him one of Hollywood’s biggest stars (the trilogy “The Matrix ” had grossed $1.7 billion worldwide), negotiations were needed. . In the end, Porsche anodized the interior trim panels a nice shade of black and put a custom touch central 12 o’clock marker on the steering wheel (via Porsche).

According to Porsche, Reeves actually drove his custom 911 on set while filming the first “John Wick” movie. Inspired indeed.
