 Porsche Museum celebrates 60th Anniversary of selling cars in USA with special exhibit
The first Porsche sportscar arrived in the USA in October, 1950, and Porsche is celebrating its 60th Anniversary in America with a contest to find the oldest Porsche in America.
If you own and can officially verify the age of your Porsche 356, 911, 912, 924, 928, 944, 968, Boxter, Cayenne, Carrera GT or Cayman, let Porsche know. They are looking for the oldest of each model, and there’s a grand prize for the oldest of them all.
Porsche already has received hundreds of photos from proud owners, which are showcased on the special Porsche 60 Years website. Porsche also invites owners of more recent models to upload short stories about their love affair with the iconic sportscar.
Just so you know — in 1950, just 15 Porsches were shipped to the USA.
 Gottlieb Daimler 1885 patent design for 'riding car'
The automobile was born on August 26, 1885. That is the day Gottlieb Daimler filed a patent for his ‘riding car’, the world’s first vehicle with an internal combustion engine. The world would never be the same, and 125 years later, engineers and designers are still tinkering with the size, power and performance of the cars we drive and ride. Daimler put a motor on a two-wheel vehicle, so purists might say this is the first motorized bicycle or the first motorcycle, not the first car. Let’s not quibble. This was the start of motorized personal mobility.
