The first Porsche 911 was introduced in 1963 at the Frankfurt Motor Show, marking a significant turning point for the brand. Designed to replace the Porsche 356, it was initially named “901,” but was later renamed “911” due to a dispute with Peugeot, which had trademarked all three-digit model names with a zero in the middle. Production began in 1964, featuring a 2.0-liter flat-six engine that produced about 130 horsepower. This first generation of the 911 offered impressive performance, reaching a top speed of around 210 km/h and coming with a five-speed manual transmission.
The 911’s design, crafted by Ferdinand “Butzi” Porsche, grandson of the brand’s founder Ferdinand Porsche, contributed to its renown. Its distinctive look and balance between comfort and sportiness captivated car enthusiasts worldwide. The 911 quickly became a Porsche icon, celebrated for its road and track performance, establishing the foundation of a lineage that continues to evolve today while retaining its original spirit.
