Each month, Panorama magazine brings you the best from the world
of Porsche. Races, vintage car shows, technical articles, we cover
it all!
At Panorama, we never have room for all the pictures we'd like
to
share with our readers. Here are some photos that just wouldn't
fit
into the magazine this month.
This summer the big news is Porsche's introduction of a limited
edition 911 Carrera in honor of PCA's 50th birthday. You read
about it in July. Now take another look at the 2006 911 Club Coupe,
of which only 50 will be built, one for each year of PCA's history.
Here are some images of the unveiling ceremony at the Hershey
Porsche Parade, along with details shots of the 911 Club Coupe.
And don't forget, as announced in last month's Panorama, Porsche
AG and Porsche Cars North America have made it possible for one
lucky PCA member to win a 911 Club Coupe. To find out more about
the car and sign up for the sweepstakes, go to www.porsche.com/911clubcoupe
. Meanwhile, may we present one gorgeous 911!
