Thread: 50 godina Porschea 911

Kako 911 stiže do 50. rođendana, Autocar pregledava neke od vrhunaca sportskog automobila. U Porsche 911 priča zapravo počela s 901 u 1963. To je pened Ferdinand Butzi Porsche, unuk Ferdinand Porsche, koji je bio poznat po dizajniranju Volkswagen Buba.
Zamjena porschesa za 356 izvorno je bila postavljena da se proda kao 901, njegov interni dizajnerski broj. Ali Peugeot zatražio prava na trocifronska imena automobila s nulom u sredini, pa Porsche promijenio ime i 911 moniker je rođen.
911 je izvorno imao 2. 0-litarski zračno hlađeni ravni šest motora, montiran, naravno, u stražnjem dio automobila. Butzis 901 dizajn, u biti, trajati do 1993.
Tijekom godina Porsche provodi bezbroj styling ugađanja i promjene, kao i brojne nadogradnje kapaciteta motora, u konačnici širi na 3. 2 litre u Carreri 3 iz 1983. 2 i opet na 3. 6 litara u 964.
Targa je uvedena 1967. godine, preko Porschesove neispravnosti da je kabriolet trebao biti ilegalan u SAD-u. Ime je izabrano po Porschesu višestrukih trijumfa u utrci Targa Florio. Tek na modelu iz 1983. godine dostupan je potpuno fledged kabriolet, nakon što je otkriven kao koncept 1981.
Godine 1988. klasik 911 je napokon zamijenjen 964-om, naj radikalno izmijenjenom 911 od njegovog uvođenja. Modernim dizajnom, 964 je slijedio isti recept 911 do njegove zamjene 1993. godine do 993.
Zbog toga što je posljednja zračno hlađena inkarnacija, 993 je pozdravljen od strane hardcore Porsche purista kao posljednji pravi 911. Ipak, 996 ga je zamijenio 1998., ponovno s pohvali da je naj temeljitiji preusmjerani model 911 od početka 911-ih. Također je otišao na postati best-selling 911; prodano je preko 170.000.
911 se tada vratio na svoj zaštitni znak bug-eye farovi kada je suza prednja svjetla 996 je zamijenjena 2004 sa 997. Imala je izuzetnu dugovječnost, koja je trajalo više od osam godina, iako malo razbijena zbog facelifta iz 2009. 997 je također iznjedrio posebno izdanje Sport Classic, slaveći Porsches dugu baštinu i sadrži patka rep spojler i Fuchs slitine.
Porscheova generacija 991, otkrivena 2011., bila je jedna od najširših prenamjenki u povijesti 911-ih. Izgrađen je na novoj platformi, tek trećoj u 50-godišnjem životu 911-ih.
Prvi 911 Turbo je objavljen 1975., s usporedno velikim 3. 0-litreni motor, spojler repa kitova i zaštitni znak široke bodywork. 1993. godine turbo 993 generacije 911 Turbo dobio je još jedan turbopunjač i pogon na četiri kotača.
Porsches sljedeći 911 Turbo će sport tri turbopunjača kada je uveden kasnije u 2013.
Od svog debija na sajmu automobila u Frankfurtu 1963. godine izgrađeno je više od 820.000 911.-e. Tvrtka je tretirala utrku stazu kao laboratorijski test; dvije trećine Porschesa 30.000 utrka pobjeda bilo je u 911.
Njegova popularnost nije teško objasniti, ali ferdinand Porsche je bio taj koji je najbolje opisao svoje osobine: 911 je jedini automobil koji ste mogli voziti na afričkom safariju ili u Le Mansu, do kazališta ili kroz newyorški gradski promet.

As the 911 reaches its 50th birthday, Autocar takes a look at some of the sports car's highlights. The Porsche 911 story actually started with the 901 in 1963. It was penned by Ferdinand Butzi Porsche, grandson of Ferdinand Porsche, who was famed for designing the Volkswagen Beetle.
Porsches replacement for the 356 was originally set to be sold as the 901, its internal design number. But Peugeot claimed the rights to three-digit car names with zero in the middle, so Porsche changed the name and the 911 moniker was born.
The 911 originally had a 2. 0-litre air-cooled flat six engine, mounted, of course, in the rear of the car. Butzis 901 design, in essence, lasted until 1993.
Over the years Porsche carried out myriad styling tweaks and changes, as well as numerous engine capacity upgrades, ultimately expanding to 3. 2 litres in the 1983 Carrera 3. 2 and again to 3. 6 litres in the 964.
The Targa was introduced in 1967, through Porsches misinformation that convertibles were to be made illegal in the US. The name was chosen after Porsches multiple triumphs in the Targa Florio race. It wasnt until the 1983 model that a fully fledged convertible was available, after being revealed as a concept in 1981.
In 1988 the 911 Classic was finally replaced by the 964, the most radically altered 911 since its introduction. With a more modern design, the 964 followed the same 911 recipe until its replacement in 1993 by the 993.
Due to it being the last air-cooled incarnation, 993 is hailed by hardcore Porsche purists as the last true 911. Nonetheless, the 996 replaced it in 1998, again with the boast of being the most thoroughly overhauled 911 model since 911s began. It also went on to become the best-selling 911; over 170,000 were sold.
The 911 then went back to its trademark bug-eye headlights when the teardrop headlighted 996 was replaced in 2004 by the 997. It had remarkable longevity, lasting over eight years albeit slightly broken up by a 2009 facelift. The 997 also spawned the special edition Sport Classic, celebrating Porsches long heritage and featuring a duck-tail spoiler and Fuchs alloys.
Porsche's 991 generation, unveiled in 2011, was one of the most extensive redevelopments in the 911s history. It is built on a new platform, only the third in the 911s 50-year life.
The first 911 Turbo was released in 1975, with a comparatively large 3. 0-litre engine, whale tail spoiler and trademark wide bodywork. In 1993 the 993-generation 911 Turbo was given another turbocharger and four-wheel drive.
Porsches next 911 Turbo will sport three turbochargers when it is introduced later in 2013.
Since its debut at the 1963 Frankfurt motor show, more then 820,000 911s have been built. The firm has treated the race track as a lab test; two-thirds of Porsches 30,000 race wins were in a 911.
Its popularity isnt hard to explain, but it was Ferdinand Porsche who best described its qualities: The 911 is the only car you could drive on an African safari or at Le Mans, to the theatre or through New York city traffic.
