PORSCHE SPEEDSTER 50TH ANNIVERSARY
CELEBRATION OF AN ICON JUNE 25-27 2004
Porsche's Speedster sports car turned 50 years old in June 2004. To honour this sports car's golden anniversary, owners, and admirers of this icon came from around the globe to attend a very special celebration.
For three days, June 25th through 27th, California's Monterey Peninsula rumbled with the throaty roar of this dynamic car as well as other Porsches, along with their devoted fans.
The Speedster's predecessors - Porsche 356-001 (the first car to bear the "Porsche" name) and several sport roadsters - were also handsomely showcased at this remarkable event, as well as many of the Speedster's successor, the Convertible D.
Porsche Speedster 50th Anniversary: Celebration of an Icon brings together images of the event, reflecting the timeless beauty of Porsche's masterful creation.
Steve Heinrichs chronicles this once-in-a-lifetime gathering by weaving together poignant elements of this historical festival.
Accompanied by Owen Edwards' stories of special Speedsters and special people, the photography of Hal Thoms, Roy Dryer and Jerry Nelson comes alive and invites the reader to be a part of this exceptional moment in time.
