Experts Say

Wicked back stories, history lessons, technical breakdowns, and, of course, dominating photography...let’s just say if there was one book we could take to a desert island, it would be Porsche 911 - The Manual

Why It Made The List

A deep dive into one of the most recognisable shapes in automotive history, this book shows how the Porsche 911 grew from clever engineering into a cultural icon. Gestalten’s photography and clean layouts mix studio shoots with archival images and design sketches, highlighting how its silhouette and mythology took hold. Essays explore motorsport, film moments, and the car’s devoted following, giving a clear sense of why the 911 means so much to so many. Big, sharp, and packed with insight, it’s an essential volume for anyone who loves this car — or sports cars in general.

MORE DETAIL

A hardcover study of the Porsche 911 and the unique place it holds in design, engineering and popular culture.

Edited by Ulf Poschardt and published by Gestalten, it pairs rich photography with archival material to explore how a single model shaped the language of sports car design for more than half a century.

The images highlight both the technical progression of the 911 and the aesthetic clarity that helped it stand apart from every rival.

Printed in full colour across 240 pages, it's produced to Gestalten’s usual exacting standards with a strong visual focus and clean, spacious layout.

The text moves between design history, motorsport moments and cultural context, showing how the 911 became more than a performance machine.

It developed into a symbol of taste, independence and understated cool, admired as much for its character as for its engineering.

Thoughtful, detailed and visually striking, it captures why many consider the 911 the greatest sports car ever made, and why its silhouette remains one of the most recognisable shapes in automotive history.
