Some History of the Porsche 911
When released the 2+2 car was offered with a 'boxer' configured 1991cc six-cylinder air cooled engine, and shared its bodywork with the lesser Porsche 912. Going through variants O, A and B-series, a number of new models were added to the popular 911 line-up, notabley the introduction of the Porsche 911 'Targa' top, the powerful Porsche 911S, the 912 replacing Porsche 911T, the entry level 911L, the verylimited Porsche 911R and the automatic Porsche 911E.
1970 saw Porsche introduce the C and D series models and increase egine capacity across the Porsche 911 range to 2.2L.
Engine capacity increased again in '72 as Porsche introduced the E and F series with a 2.4L engine. The models offered by Porsche dealers were not altered as they were selling well, the only changes made to the cars other than the power increase was a new, stronger transmission set-up.
