Interesting NEW Porsche actually. That is the museums replica of the Berlin Rome car - and what you could legitimately claim to be the first Porsche - that they missed the chance to buy many years ago. Seems like they´re still peeved about it too. Laughing

They had two of them at the end of WW2 but they were taken by the Allies, no?

From memory there were three originally, and the only surviving original is made from parts of two of them. I think the third was destroyed way back, possibly pre war.

Edit - more here...
