The Complete Book of Porsche 911 Reviews

The Complete Book of Porsche 911 should be considered a worthy purchase for any Porsche owner or enthusiast's bookshelf, especially if they don't already possess an earlier edition. * Porsche Club of America *
As wonderfully complete as it is photographed, it makes a fine addition to any gearhead's library, even if you're not that into 911s. If you are (and most of us are) it's simply a must-have on its own. -- Tony Borroz * Automoblog *
An absolute 'must' for the legions of dedicated Prosche owners and enthusiasts * Midwest Book Review *
