All the iconic 911 models are included: - The original 901 prototype that set the standard- The legendary RS models that made the little Porsche a dominant force on the world’s racetracks- The infamous Turbo, the car that kept the performance flame alight during the dark, dismal decade of the 1970s- The fabled 959, the model that redefined the term “sports car”- The 993, last of the original air-cooled models- The 996, 997, and 991, the liquid-cooled cars that brought the 911 into a new millennium Beyond telling the story of the cars, Porsche 911: 50 years also spotlights the people behind them: Ferdinand “Butzi” Porsche, the son of legendary Porsche founder Ferdinand “Ferry” Porsche, who co-designed the instantly recognizable 911 shape; Peter W. Schutz, the Porsche CEO who saved the 911 from extinction; and Dr. Helmuth Bott, the engineering genius behind many of the groundbreaking technologies that have defined the 911, including fuel injection, turbocharging, and all-wheel-drive. Leffingwell also tells the story of the 911 community—the clubs and culture that surround the car. Together, all of these facets make Porsche 911: 50 Years the most essential book in any Porsche owner or fan’s library.","brand":"Quarto","offers":[{"title":"Used - good","offer_id":53256823079254,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/leffingwell-randy-porsche-911-50-years-9780760344019","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
