Porsche Special Editions

Enthusiasts at all levels generally recognize and can identify on sight Porsche's most iconic and mainstay models, such as the original 356 models of the 1950s and early 1960s, the seminal 911 first shown in 1963 and still in production nearly seven decades later, and perhaps the mid-engine 914. Each of these model platforms contain many subsets of special-edition versions built to higher levels of style, performance, luxury, or rarity. These include a variety of anniversary editions, commemorating certain landmarks in the marque's history.

Lumping all Porsches into the "if you've seen one, you've seen them all" category is to miss the design, details, and performance of many great cars. These cars range from relatively straightforward color and trim combinations to limited-edition, high-performance machines, including several generations of modern 911-based Speedsters, Turbos, slant-nose Flachbaus, select RS and ClubSport models, special 356s, factory and independent concepts, and design studies.

The unique work of low-volume production houses, such as Germany's RUF, and high-end restoration and custom build shops, such as Singer Vehicle Design, Guntherwerks, and others, are also found here.
This book contains a veritable Smorgasbord of interesting, rare, and unique special Porsches from around the world.

Porsche - Die Serienfahrzeuge von den Anfängen bis heute

The equation Porsche = 911 has long since been incorrect. Since the switch from air-cooled to water-cooled engines, Porsche has offered much more.
Over the past 25 years, an unprecedented variety of models has developed: the Porsche family now consists not only of 911s, but also of off-road vehicles, four-door models such as the Panamera, small SUVs and mid-engine sports cars such as the Boxster.

Porsche luftgekühlt

Few car brands are as popular with collectors and fans as Porsche. The "air-cooled" models, which the traditional Stuttgart company built for over five decades, are particularly popular among lovers of old cult cars.
"Air doesn't boil, air doesn't freeze": When the last air-cooled 911 rolled off the production line at Porsche, it wasn't just a long tradition that ended with a catchy advertising slogan.

Pagine del libro "Porsche luftgekühlt"

In this book, Dennis Adler tells the story of an era: from the first steps of the company's founder Ferdinand Porsche to the rise to become a world-famous sports car brand, from the first Gmünd Coupé to the last Porsche 911, which was able to call the air-cooled engine with the unmistakably rich sound its own.
As an experienced motor journalist and Porsche expert, Adler not only provides a lot of vivid photos of 911 935 and co., but also underlines them with a fact-rich accompanying text in which even long-time fans of the popular sports car brand can learn something new. From the post-war period to the successful racing history, the famous air-cooled cars are put in the spotlight here.
