1965 Porsche 911

Believe it or not, 1965 was the first year Americans were able to buy the most recognizable sports car profile of all time.  However, the new 911 was introduced to the American market in the fall of 1964 to a mediocre reception.  The previous iteration, the 356, was so loved that it took a short time for buyers to warm to the new design.  Hard to fathom, as this enduring classic is easily recognizable as a Porsche 911… 45 years later. 

The 911 project began in the late 1950’s, headed by Ferdinand Porsche’s son, Ferry.  It was designed to be a larger, faster replacement for the rear-engine 356 sport coupe, introduced back in 1950.  Like the 356, the engine was to be rear-mounted.  Ferry Porsche contended that without unnecessary weight on the front end, steering was livelier and more natural feeling.  The 911 was Porsche’s first all-new model. 

One of the most versatile sports cars ever developed, the 911 proved successful in international rallying, GT racing and endurance classics, doing much to establish Porsche’s reputation for quality, reliability and high performance.  With timeless styling, world-class engineering, and countless race wins, the 911 is widely recognized as one of the most influential cars ever produced.
