I’ve been a fan of the Porsche 356 since I was at least 9 years old, after seeing one in a buyer’s guide.  This particular example is a 1949 356/2 Coupe, one of the first 50 built, handmade in Gmünd, Austria in 1949.  In this particular color, it looks positively breathtaking.  This one is owned by Ferry Porsche’s son, Hans-Peter Porsche.  It won Best in Class this year, in the Postwar Sports Closed Class, at the 2011 Pebble Beach Concours. Enjoy the photos.
