Porsche, with its open aerodynamic coupe body, exotic appearance and performance capabilities beyond that of a normal passenger car, has become an icon in the transportation world; not only as a sports car, but also for the status and sexy image it brings to its owner.The concise and compelling texts shed light on every aspect of Porsche history, richly illustrated with a variety of historical documents. Throughout the 400-page book, naturally, one thing stands out: the vehicle itself. Rainer Schlegelmilch's photographs veritably pay homage to the embodiment of the car and provide enthusiasts with a fleeting glimpse of this explosive automobile.
