Great photos
7 Sep 1999
Format:Paperback
Really nice pictures but the text gets a bit redundant and doesn't go into a lot of detail other than the changes made from year to year. Worth the price for the pictures though.

Excellent Photos
30 April 2000
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
The photos are what makes this a four star book. The book has nice, but brief, text on Porsche history and racing.
The book covers cars from the 60's through the late 90's 993. There is a short section on the water-cooled 996. One thing the book is missing is coverage of the 80's cars. The book goes right from the 60's-70's into special editions and the 993s.
Overall the book is worth the price of admission because of the photos but don't expect much technical detail.

Incomplete coverage
8 Aug 2002
Format:Paperback
Yes, the pictures are good and the years and models that are covered are done well, but what about the late seventies and eighties models? There is a year-to-year change summary at the end of the book, but that's all there is for the missing years.
It just seems like there is a chapter or two missing.
