Description:
1964 Porsche 356C Coupe by Ferry Porsche, based on the Volkswagen designed by his father. Introduced in 1949, Porsche's landmark sports car would remain in production (regularly revised and updated) well into the 911 era, the final examples leaving the Stuttgart factory in 1965. Outwardly very similar to the final 356Bs, the ultimate 356C model arrived in 1963 sporting Ate/Dunlop, four wheel disc brakes (first seen on the two litre Carrera ). Performance was on a par with that of the preceding 356B, the top speed of the 1600C version being 109mph. Testing a 356C in 1964, Road and Track enthused over its comfort, quality and excellent performance, concluding, 'One would look a long time before finding a sports or GT car that offers more pure driving enjoyment'
