Additionally, the illustrated book Artifacts<\/em> explores the Porsche DNA through carefully selected objects from the company’s storerooms. This large-format book offers a unique perspective on Porsche’s history, revealing the stories behind each exhibit.<\/p>\n For those seeking a chronological overview of Porsche’s journey, Porsche Chronik<\/em> presents the eventful history of the company in both German and English versions. It covers the company’s beginnings in 1931, the birth of the first Porsche sports car in 1948, and the celebrations of the anniversary year 2023.<\/p>\n A biography of Ferry Porsche, available again in both German and English, offers a deep dive into the life of the visionary founder of the company. As CEO and Chairman of the Supervisory Board, he played a pivotal role in shaping Porsche into a world-leading sports car manufacturer. Lastly, Porsche enthusiasts can explore the extended and revised fourth edition of Porsche 911 x 911<\/em>, which celebrates the 60th birthday of the iconic 911. This edition, available in five languages, showcases the story of the beloved sports car through photos, drawings, and advertisements from the company archive.<\/p>\n Last month, the Stuttgart-based automaker made waves with something completely different – the debut of the Porsche 911 GT3 R rennsport (with a lowercase R), of which just 77 examples will be produced. This is not a street-legal machine and features a massive rear wing and a 4.2-liter naturally aspirated engine under the hood. The car isn\u2019t street-legal and each one of the 77 units that are going to be assembled starts at $1,046,000.<\/p>\n
