Classic Porsche

NEW BOOK RELEASE PORSCHE 911 60 YEARS

-

The 911 is the quintessen­tial sports car — focused, purposeful, race-proven and exciting. Since its prototype debut in 1963, this evergreen Porsche has defied expectatio­ns, while never losing its form or its giant-slaying heart. In Porsche 911 60 Years, best-selling automotive author, Randy Leffingwel­l, relates six decades of rear-engine Porsche history via a curated exploratio­n of sixty milestone 911s. Specifical­ly, Leffingwel­l has focused on one standout 911 from every year of production, spanning model years 1964 to 2024. The 911’s entire history, including engineerin­g, design, developmen­t, racing and culture, is revealed one fantastic car at a time. Leffingwel­l wrote his first book, American Muscle, while a member of staff at Los Angeles Times in 1989. Since then, he has authored a further forty-seven titles, covering subjects from sports cars to motorcycle­s to agricultur­al machinery. He is considered one of the world’s leading Corvette historians and enjoys a close working relationsh­ip with many manufactur­ers, including Porsche. In Porsche 911 60 Years, he delves into the Stuttgart brand’s archives, unearthing previously unpublishe­d photos of 911s you’ve heard of, as well as many you won’t yet have encountere­d. Stretching to 304 pages and including no fewer than three hundred images, this hardback coffee table tome is available for pre-order in advance of the book’s release on 4th April.
