"If it's any statement as to the value of this book for a
Porschephile, the second edition is out of print and they're asking
over $300 a copy right now. I gave away my first edition and I'm
seriously questioning my wisdom with that move. If you're the kind
of person who wants to know that Bahama Yellow was available from
'65-'69 and Guards Red started in 1974, this book is for you. If
you want to know how many Turbos they made in 1975 (284) you'll
want this book. It lists: option codes, paint codes, engine specs,
transmission types and enough minutiae to satisfy anyone's inner
Porsche statistical nerd." - Tom Roos, Hurrican Region, Porsche
Club of America
"If it's even possible, interest in Porsche's longest-lived sports
car is growing ever greater, and newly minted 911 enthusiasts may
be looking for a handy-sized (5 x 8 inches) resource to carry as
they wander the auction and classic car dealer rows. Authors
Patrick Paternie and Peter Bodensteiner created a fine portable
historical reference manual in the third edition of Porsche 911 Red
Book. This 208-page softcover offers chassis and engine serial
numbers year by year, along with color charts, option codes and
more, so you can check the authenticity of any 911 you inspect.
Basic specifications, production numbers and performance figures
are also provided for every model year through 2014. If you're
considering a 911, this book is a smart buy." - Hemmings Sports
Exotics
"One of the features I like the most is the chassis and engine
serial numbers enabling you to verify a car's production year,
original color, options, etc. It makes a non-Porsche historian like
myself confident I can go out and determine on my own, with
relative certainty, what I'm looking at. I can imagine this book
would come in very handy at auctions, private party sales, swap
meets, etc. This book will definitely accompany me on my next
Porsche buying outing. - AutobahnBound.com
"We first mentioned this book to you in mid-2015 yet it continues
to be the #1 top seller among FLATSIXES.com
readers."--FLATSIXES.com
