Classic Porsche: History

Porsche's official history started in 1948 with its first production model, the Porsche 356. This car established the brand's core philosophy: sporty cars with outstanding technology and distinctive design. Founder Ferdinand Porsche set standards that future models would follow. The 356 quickly became a success and entrenched Porsche in the global sports car world.

A significant milestone was marked by the launch of the Porsche 911 in 1964. Its unmistakable design and rear-engine layout defined Porsche's image, and the 911 remains the brand's flagship model. It set new standards in performance and handling and became synonymous with the Porsche name, and is greatly valued in classic car circles.

Over the decades, Porsche has produced some of the most coveted classic models:

  • Porsche 356 (1948–1965): The first production model and a cherished classic today, featuring an aerodynamic body and powerful four-cylinder boxer engine.
  • Porsche 911 (1964–1989): The epitome of Porsche, admired worldwide. The early models, namely the F- and G-series, are highly sought after by collectors, thanks to their timeless design and characteristic rear boxer engine.
  • Porsche 914 (1969–1976): A joint venture with Volkswagen, this mid-engine sports car is now a favored classic, especially the six-cylinder variant.
  • Porsche 928 (1977–1995): Initially conceived as the 911's successor, this V8 front-engined Grand Tourer became a classic in its own right, prized for its driving dynamics.
