The Porsche 356, the car that started it all for Stuttgart, evolved significantly over its production run from 1948 to 1965. The C-series, introduced in 1964, represented the final and most refined iteration of this iconic model. It brought advancements like standard four-wheel disc brakes – a significant upgrade over the earlier drum brakes – and more comfortable seating, solidifying its reputation as a sophisticated grand tourer. The 356C also featured the most powerful pushrod engine offered, the 1.6-liter 75-horsepower 'Type 616/15' engine, providing a perfect blend of performance and reliability for the era. As the ultimate expression of the original Porsche vision, the 356C remains highly sought after by collectors who appreciate its timeless design and driving purity. This 1965 Porsche 356C Coupe stands as a highly desirable final-year example, boasting its original, matching-numbers engine. Presented in its factory-correct and striking Bali Blue (6412) exterior, complemented by a warm Fawn Brown interior, this German classic offers an exceptional foundation for a discerning enthusiast. Showing 0 miles since its last refresh, this particular 356C is poised for its next chapter, ready to be brought back to its former glory.
