It's a well-known fact that Porsche's first production car started with the rear-engine Porsche 356. Full production of the 356 series began in 1950... ...and the coupé model was soon followed by open-top versions. All of these models shared a boxed sheet metal chassis with independent suspension. And the flat-4 engine was available in five different displacements and output. A slightly modified 356A appeared in 1955. In 1956, a high performance 1.5-liter engine developed for the 550 Spyder was offered as an option. Models equipped with the powerful 1.5-liter engine were called the GS Carrera. They are known to have been cars that could immediately be raced as is. This model is a GS Carrera GT, characterized by a lighter body and powerful engine. These cars are collectibles that rarely change hands, so don't miss your chance to drive it!
