A special gift for a special anniversary: for the past two years, Porsche Classic has been working on a unique project to celebrate 50 years of Porsche Design. To mark the anniversary, Porsche Classic has restored a 911 S 2.4 Targa from 1972 – the year that Porsche Design was founded.
Hans Mezger had always hoped to get his 911 Carrera 3.0 back on the road, but he didn’t live to realise his dream. One year after his death, his son Oliver fulfilled his wish.
Pictures, cups and racing suits – the typical mementos of a motor sport career. Paolo Barilla, overall winner of Le Mans in 1985 in a private Porsche 956, has chosen a different, far more dynamic reminder of his greatest sporting success, a 911 GT3.
Hans-Joachim Stuck has had to wait almost 35 years for a reunion with the fully refurbished 962 C and its first rollout. So the surprise was all the greater when the silk cloth was drawn back to reveal the vehicle at the Weissach Development Centre.
In the beginning, the track up on the heathland between Weissach and Flacht was where cars were test-driven, pushed to their limit, and developed. For the racing drivers, this was also where they had some of their best times.
If you own a current model Porsche, you should also have a classic to keep it company. To meet growing demand, Australia’s only official Porsche Classic Partner is breathing new life into yesterday’s models.
