Porsche 912 (1965 - 1969)

Introduction

Porsche introduced the four-cylinder 912 to take over from where the outgoing 356 left off. It effectively fitted a 90bhp version of the 356’s four-cylinder engine, with a five-speed gearbox, into the shorter-wheelbase 911 bodyshell.

Straight line performance was not this car's speciality, but with low weight and improved weight distribution (therefore handling) over the 911, this is a fine sports car in its own right.
