Top 5 Gifts for Porsche Fans

Your dearest ones deserve the best.

The history of Porsche dates back 1948, from humble beginnings, where founder Ferdinand Porsche produced the brand with only 200 employees. In many Motorsport divisions, Porsche was popular, most of which were across long-distance races.

From the Le Mans road to the African deserts, through snowbound woods and clubhouses, Porsche’s have collected trophies and put drivers on the map be it in Le Mans, Formula Drift or Formula-E. At the GPBox we have put together the top 5 gifts and collectables for Porsche lovers and fans of the brand’s racing heritage.

The Iconic 911 series

The Porsche design team created an icon when they decided to build a rear-engine flagship. Where most sports cars had their engines on the front, the 911 shared a layout with the humble Volkswagen Beetle, with its engine on the back— behind the rear wheels. It was to be called the Porsche 901, but the French automaker Peugeot had trademarked that number and so they decided to call it 911.

It has been around for about 60 years, and through them all, the 911 remains a car you buy when you make it. Treat your loved ones to Porsche memorabilia and collectables based on one of the automotive world’s most successful product lines.

Porsche merchandise and Wall art

Apparel in the form of shirts, socks and bracelets will be a great addition to any wardrobe. Stunning posters and original art will change the ambience of any Porsche fan’s living room and put a smile on their faces every time they look at it. The essence of legendary Porsche’s livery, events and drivers captured on canvas

Automobile Royalty

The Porsche Carrera GT was the last real supercar made with a real manual transmission in large numbers and considered as one of the best cars ever made by automobile enthusiasts. It is also the last true “old-world” supercar and thought of as being the best, the biggest and the highlight of the image developed and mastered by cars like the Lamborghini Miura, the Ferrari F40, the Porsche 959 and the McLaren F1.

Revered by Porsche enthusiasts, any gift that involves the Carrera GT is going to hold a special place in their hearts. Die-cast scale models of Porsches from the infamous widow maker to the genre-redefining Cayenne won’t just also be great gifts to receive, they will enhance any collection.

The Le Mans Story: Signed Car Panel art

Remember Derek Bell? Limited edition Le Mans Racecar panel wall art based on the Porsche 917 and 962 signed by the legend himself. The Porsche 917 is considered one of the most iconic racing cars of all time and gave Porsche their first 24 Hours of Le Mans win, while open-top versions of it dominated Can-Am racing.

Between 1984 and 1991, Porsche is said to have built a total of 91 962 race cars during its seven-year production run, of which only 16 were raced by Porsche itself, 962 also saw victory at Le Mans, winning back to back in 1986 and 1987. These items have a tremendous history associated with them and thus would be a valuable addition to any Porsche lovers collection.
