Description
“Brilliant cars aren’t made by committees.”
In 1948, the very first prototype of the Porsche 356 came to life. Air-cooled, lightweight, and razor-sharp in its lines. No excess. No compromise. Just pure, timeless engineering.
By 1955, the 356A arrived – a refined evolution, built on the same unmistakable Porsche DNA.
And ours? A rare and exceptional example.
Finished in the original and irresistibly elegant Graphite Metallic (5603) with red leather interior – a colour combination so unique, you’re unlikely to ever see it again. This is not a spec you choose from a catalogue. This is craftsmanship.
Fully body-off restored in Italy, down to the finest detail. Everything aligns – from the trim to the stitching in the leather. Of course, it comes with Matching Numbers & Colors, and is Mille Miglia-eligible.
For a more spirited drive, it is currently fitted with an upgraded 90 hp 356 engine – the perfect blend of authenticity and extra punch. Fully rebuilt in 2017. Prefer full originality? The original engine block is included.
Since arriving in the Netherlands, this car has been further refined by true enthusiasts. Every bolt inspected, every mile a tribute to precision. This is not the kind of Porsche you see parked outside a café. This is a Porsche for the discerning few – those with taste, passion, and a deep appreciation for history.
So, fasten your seatbelt. Turn the key. Listen. Enjoy.
“You don’t find a car like this – it finds you.”
