Porsche 911 40th Anniversary Web Site Offers History, Games and Prizes
For car enthusiasts the year 1963 was one of the best. Other than yours truly arriving on the scene, Chevrolet brought out its stunning split window Corvette coupe, Chrysler created the first drivable turbine car, Buick unveiled its gorgeous Riviera coupe and Jaguar offered arguably the best ever years for its E-Type and Mark II models. And that's just scraping the surface.

What many will consider autodom's most important event also took place. Porsche's legendary 911 initially made its debut at the 1963 Frankfurt International Auto Show. This fall will mark 40 years of 911s, a production model that has won more motorsport events than any other currently available. It's also won the hearts of hundreds of thousands of dedicated Porschephiles, young and old.
