Format:Hardcover
This is a good basic volume for the first-time or prospective 356 owner. Filled with many color photos and just the right amount of charts, it explains the differences in years and models. It doesn't give enough detail to be the basis of a restoration, but it does makes a good read. A good supplement for any Porsche library.

Great photos of a classic!
27 Mar 1999
Format:Hardcover
This book has very nice pictures of the 356. There are, however, few of the US specification Porsche. The book, being a British publication, has a lot of photos of cars produced for the UK market. There are some really beautiful cars to drool over in here!

The book to own and to read for the real 356-fanatic
21 May 2000
Format:Hardcover
112 pages and lots of very nice photographs (about 200), all in colour. The text is nicely wrapped around the photographs. The photographs are all especially made for this book, so they are all new and unpublished before.
The book forms an attractive and detailed guide to the Porsche 356 and the illustrations, besides being very nice, provide a good and complete reference source. It's the book to own when you like the classic lines of the Porsche 356.
