Product Description

Product Description
Since it first appeared in 1963, the Porsche 911 has been subject to continual refinement and improvement, giving rise to a range of variants that are still being developed. All the models have retained the 911 "look" and the car has become a classic during its own production lifespan. This book tells the story of the evolution of the Porsche 911. It traces the development of the 911 in all its variants, detailing the bodies, interiors, engines, transmissions and suspensions. It also lists year-by-year changes, together with full technical and competition details.

5.0 out of 5 stars Complete description of the evolution of the Porsche 911, 2 Oct 2000
The 'Porsche 911 Story' is one of the "Bibles" of the Porsche 911. It offers a complete picture of the evolution of the 911, from its roots in the 356 through to the last of the "true", air-cooled Porsches.

It falls between a mechanic's manual and a photo-filled story of the great car. It finds the middle ground perfectly and is an essential part of any 911 enthusiast's library.

5.0 out of 5 stars The ultimate bible for 911 enthusiasts, 21 Oct 2000
By A Customer
Although deeply technical in places, this is an excellent piece of work. The attention to detail is superb and Paul Frere really shows a passion for the porsche marque as well the 911 itself. My only criticisms would be the order the book is written and the poor sequencing of illustrations.

4.0 out of 5 stars A celibration of the technical achievement of the 911, 8 Nov 2001
By A Customer
You will be disappointed if you are looking for pages of road test reports or even some constructive criticism.

The book is a technical tour de force providing excellent insite into the engineering development of the car over the years. A book you dip in and out of to find your facts.
