The Porsche type 964 - a new start with this 911

  • 6 years ago
The eighth generation of the Porsche 911 will celebrate its world premiere in Los Angeles on 27 November.

It's 55 years since the original 911 model debuted, and so a perfect opportunity to take a look back at the previous seven generations.

The third generation of this sports car, known internally as the type 964, combined the traditional silhouette of the classic model with state-of-the-art technology. It was also a bet on the future of the company, which was experiencing economic chal-lenges - a bet that this third generation would win.
