The Story of Porsche

Since its founding, Porsche has flown in the face of conventional automotive wisdom. Instead of the big motors and sleek bodywork of the '50s and '60s, Porsche built flyweight chassis with compact, reliable small-displacement power units — and began dominating racing. That ethos has given Porsche a reputation that can be compared to only one other manufacturer — the one known for the horse and red paint. The Story of Porsche captures the company's history from the 356 to the 911 and fabled racing machines like the 917 and 956. Over 160 pages with full-color photographs, Porsche's victories in the marketplace and on the track are documented in this hand-bound volume.
