Anyone with even a passing interest in automobiles knows the name Porsche (pronounced PORSH-uh). What sets a Porsche apart from every other car in the world? The obvious answer is performance. Porsche cars, have been held in the highest esteem by generations of drivers who value performance above all. But that's only part of the answer. What truly distinguishes a Porsche is passion. The passion for excellence.
The very first Porsche, the Type 356, was unveiled in 1948 by Professor Ferdinand Porsche and his son Ferry Porsche. Today, it is a passion pursued by the designers and engineers who cherish the philosophy laid forth long ago by Professor Porsche: "To change is easy, to improve is hard."
