内容简介 Book Description
Packed with information and technical detail, and fully illustrated with stunning color photographs, The Ultimate History of Porsche is the definitive reference to this classic sporting marque, from its roots in Ferdinand Porsche's early career with Lohner, Daimler and Benz to the latest Porseche models to hit the showroom floor.

The book begins with a look at the pioneers behind the company, Dr Ferdinand Porsche and his son (later Professor) Ferry, and their struggle to establish and maintain their dream of making, selling and running sports cars for competition. It covers Ferdinand's earliest days in the motor industry at the start of the twentieth century to his work on the famous Auto-Union P-wagens and the now infamous Volkswagen "Beetle" and Ferry's first sporting designs, including the 'original' Porsche, the 356/001. This book also presents the popular and famous models that made the company's fortune: the revised 356, the 911, the Carrera, today's Boxster and the wonderful 944 Turbo, all shown in lavish detail, with explanations of their design and mechanics accompanied by beautiful images.

In its comprehensive look at motor sport, from hill-climbing to Formula One, via rallying, endurance racing, even Indianapolis, The Ultimate History of Porsche celebrates not just the cars, but the drivers who piloted them to victory and the many events that Porsche made their own from the earliest days of competition.

And for those people to whom Porsche is a chance to achieve a dream of cruising at speed on the highway while others just stop and stare, The Ultimate History of Porsche contains all the technical detail and enticing images you need to decide on your next model.
