Porsche History - Porsche 911
The 911 is a motoring legend. A legend that has evolved over the years to become even truer to itself. A sports car that has been the breeding ground for the host of new automotive technologies. Today’s 911 is the embodiment of a technological and aesthetic ideal. Combining passion and inspiration, and a commitment to engineering excellence.
As well as being an out-and out sports car, the 911 is also extremely practical, comfortable to drive, and sure-footed in even the toughest conditions. It’s a car that lacks just one thing: compromise.Building a race-winning car demands an engine, transmission and chassis that can all deliver the very highest levels of performance. The challenge then is to produce car that is equally suited to everyday use. The 911 responds to every driver input with absolute precision. On the open road, the lightest touch on the accelerator brings an unrivalled immediacy of response. But uniquely for such a high-performance sports car, it is equally comfortable around town.
But how best to describe the feeling of actually driving the 911? The only way, of course, is just to get in and drive it for yourself.
