Porsche 911 Story

The Porsche 911, introduced in 1963, is still the world’s favorite high-performance sports car. Rather like the car it describes, the evergreen Porsche 911 Story continues to delight marque enthusiasts of all ages, having been originally published in 1976 and having remained in print ever since, through eight editions. Describing the full history of this timeless sports car, this classic book is brought right up to date in a totally redesigned ninth edition that includes details of the models produced since 2006. Respected motoring journalist and Porsche expert Tony Dron picks up the torch to update this definitive work by the late Paul Frère.

The Complete Book of Porsche 911 provides a model-by-model overview for each year of the 911's production, from the original 901 prototype to the current models.

This richly illustrated book offers a complete history of Porsche, Germany's premium sports-car maker. Porsche 70 Years focuses on engineering and design stories, while also paying homage to key players.

One of the classic German sports cars, the 911, is covered here in a complete history from the drawing board of Dr. Porsche to the Carrera 2. Packed with profiles, road tests, buying tips, maintenance and care of these sporty legends.

The introduction of the Porsche 901 in 1963 marked↵ a milestone in automotive history. Although the name later had to be changed because Peugeot had patented having a 0 in the middle of car model numbers, the 911 didn't let anything stand in the way of its becoming an iconic sports car. This success story spans all the way from the 901 and the Carrera RS 2.7 (which with its characteristic rear spoiler--the so-called "ducktail"--was the fastest production car of its time) right up to the current generation of the 991. For the 50th birthday of the populous 911 family, the famous automotive photographer Rene Staud, whose The Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Book has also been published by teNeues, showcases the most important models--all in his typically radiant and distinctive style.
