Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I know this is probally the wrong forum to post this on and someone will probally bitch about it, but i figured who better to ask then the fellow 996 guys. Alright, the deal is fathers day is coming up and i was wanting to get my dad a book on the history of Porsche. So my question is what is the definitive Porsche history book? I'm looking for something that details the later years also and doesn't only focus on early models. Thanx in advance P.S. He drives a 1992 964 if that helps

POST 2Original post

There are so many Porsche books that it's tough to recommend just one. I enjoyed the book Porsche 911 - Perfection by Design. Here's a list for you to choose from: http://www.motorbooks.com/Store/CustomPage_6515.ncm

POST 3Original post

I recommend "Porsche 911 Story, The entire Development History" by Paul Fr�re.

POST 4Original post

2nd Porsche 911 Story, The entire Development History" by Paul Fr�re Make sure you get the 8th addition. It includes 996 and 997 info.

POST 5Original post

If you want to go big, then get 'Excellence was Expected'. It contains so much info, you're covered for the next 3 father's days. http://www.amazon.com/Porsche-Excell...0973167&sr=8-1

POST 8Original post

My wife got me this for xmas a couple of years back Porsche 911: Perfection by Design http://www.amazon.com/Porsche-911-Pe...0973167&sr=8-1 very cool content and looks good on the coffee table... she also got me the 911, 40 fast years anniversary poster that she framed and put in the pool room

POST 9Original post

Another thumbs up for "Excellence was Expected" by Ludvigsen - sumptuous.

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

thanx guys, this is exactly the kind of feedback i was looking for, can someone include a link to "The 2nd 911 Story" preferably the 8th edition . also how recent does "Excellence was Expected" cover?

POST 13 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

yea, i was confused, i actually searched "2nd 911 Story" i guess i thought it was a part 2 or something

POST 14Original post

Also highly recommend this book. More of a history, information and tech book as opposed to a pic book.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
