Porsche 356...what is this?
by Autobahn on Sat Aug 21, 2010 4:59 pm
When we were in Monterey, I saw this car. What is it? I have never seen this strange back end?

I think it's the Panamera's grand-father the 356 Karmann Coupe. See http://www.notchbacks.org

Yep...it's a "Notchback" coupe. Not to many of them around.

Yessir!
VW also made a Notchback coup based on the type III/Squareback platform with a "stand-up Type I" engine. I've always wanted one ....
I didn't know Porsche made a Notchback, too. Very cool.
