The 356 set the tone for Porsche
in more ways than one, as it featured a rear-engine design in a
pure, lightweight package. Sound familiar? The two-door
established the template for style as well, as the 356’s “bathtub”
design themes are still front and center on Porsches being sold
today. Multiple variants of the 356 were produced throughout
its seven-year lifespan. The most revered is likely the 356
Speedster of the late 1950s, as its stripped-down format previewed
future specialty models like the 911 GT3. The 356 is easily one of
the most collectible Porsches ever.
