Porsche

By: Peter Morgan

Born in the Bohemian town of Maffersdorf on September 3, 1875, Ferdinand Porsche displayed unparalleled automotive engineering genius from his earliest years, designing some of the world’s most iconic cars, like the Mercedes-Benz Kompressor and Typ S models. In 1938 Porsche began development of the Typ 64, the forefather of all Porsche race cars. Porsche captures the Porsche story through entries on the most iconic Porsche cars ever built, from the first 356 to the latest 911, to the mid-engine Boxster and Cayman, and all the front-engine cars including the 928, 944, 968 and Cayenne. No other sports car has achieved the success of those built by Porsche, on the street or on the world's racetracks. Part of Motorbooks' First Gear series, Porsche celebrates the German marque's history through lavishly illustrated profiles of the company's ground-breaking sports cars, each one supplemented with spec boxes and "did you know?" factoids.

Porsche in Motorsport

The First Fifty Years

By: Peter Morgan

This beautifully illustrated photographic history chronicles Porsche's half-century in motorsport, covering the evolution of the marque's race cars, the developing technologies, drivers, and the common thread that links the 550 Spyder of the carefree 1950s to 911 GT cars of today. Each car featured is examined in the context of its race record and specifications. Interviews with drivers and engineers are accompanied by an in-depth examination of such feats as Porsche's unmatched 16 wins at Le Mans and a gallery of contemporary photography, technical drawings, and specially commissioned paintings that depict 50 years of Porsches at the world's greatest circuits.

Porsche Turbo

The Full History of the Race and Production Cars

By: Peter Vann,Clauspeter Becker

Since its introduction in 1974, the Porsche 911 Turbo Carrera has remained one of the ultimate dream cars. Inspired by the wildly successful Porsche 917 that dominated the Can-Am race series in 1972 and 1973, Porsche's line of forced-induction production vehicles eventually included turbocharged versions of the front-engined 924 and 944 as well as several 911 variants, including the 930 Turbo Cabrio, the highly exotic Typ 959, and the current Typ 993 twin-turbo. This color photohistory examines all of Porsche's turbocharged road vehicles, along with the race cars from which they developed, including the 917, the famous Martini-liveried 912, the 956 and subsequent 962 that combined for six victories at Le Mans. The marvelous color photography of Peter Vann, author of 1998's Fantastic Porsche, illustrates cars from private collections throughout the world.

Porsche Turbo

The Full History

By: Peter Vann

The long career of the Porsche Turbo started during the first oil crisis--a time when it seemed that fast, powerful cars would have no further place on the motoring scene. Yet the Turbo has remained immune from such criticism ever since its debut at the Paris Motor Show in 1974. The evidence: a quarter of a century of unbroken success. In 1975, when the Turbo went into series production, 260 horsepower were sufficient to put across its power philosophy. The peak of the output curve was reached by the fourth generation of Porsche's top model in 1996, when the special Turbo S edition was rated at 450 horsepower. The most recent, fifth-generation Porsche Turbo endeavors to bring the fast driver that much closer to sports car perfection.
