The Porsche 911 story started with the 1964 901/911 prototype, a car designed to continue where the Porsche 356 left off.
The new car was intended to be faster, more luxurious, spacious and have improved handling characteristics.

Part of the beauty of the 911 comes in the knowledge of its unconventional engine positioning. The extreme rearward placing of the engine is something no other mass manufacturer has attempted, never mind perfected.

The 911's DNA remains unchanged to this day - part of the reason why the car is included in the most beautiful designs of all time.

Over the year Porsche has released countless variants and model of the 911 ranging from convertibles, coupes, Targa tops, 4 wheel drive and turbo charged, to name but a few, but every single car can be traced back to the 901/911 from 1964.

Porsche's refusal to deviate from the original concept has allowed them to improve the 911's characteristics over many years.

In true German fashion, Porsche choose to make minuscule alterations each year slightly improving the car step by step - probably until absolute perfection is achieved.
