The 911 made its public debut at the Frankfurt Auto Show in September 1963, meeting all the specifications set by Dr. Porsche. The design resembled its predecessor but was more powerful, smoother, quieter, and offered more space for both passengers and luggage compared to the 356. The body of the 911 was functional and beautifully streamlined, with a timeless appearance. To this day, Porsche remains faithful to the original design.
In the 1972 production year, the engine displacement was increased to 2,341 cc (2.4 liters), giving the 911 T version a power output of 140 hp. A unique feature of the 1972 model year was that all 911s had an external oil filler cap on the right side, while the fuel filler opening was at the front left. This design sometimes caused confusion at gas stations, leading to the removal of the external oil filler cap the following year, making it a distinctive feature of this model year. Due to this exclusive characteristic, this version of the 2.4 series is highly sought after by collectors.
The introduction of the Porsche 911 S at the 1966 Paris Motor Show, two years after the launch of the 901 type (now 911 in October 1964 after a dispute with the Peugeot company) will put an end to the criticism and constitute a big date for Porsche. Indeed, with this new model, the small manufacturer of Stuttgart can finally hope to become the equal of Ferrari by proposing a sports car able to compete with the 246 Dino and other sports of less diffusion. The "S" is the first high-performance version of the 911 and its great sports capabilities, developed in competition, will eventually generate more and more powerful versions. Those who are not Porsche specialists will find it difficult to see the aesthetic differences between the 911 S and the basic 911 2.0. Like the latter, it is available in coupe or targa roof appeared a few months ago. It is also with the 911 S that appear the famous Fuchs aluminum and five-spoke rims, then become inseparable from the 911 until the end of the 80s.
