Recognized globally as Porsche's very first production automobile, the 356 was a rear-engined sports car that was built between 1948 and 1965 before being replaced by the 911 series. To many, the 356 is considered to be the foundation of Porsche automobiles, with its styling and design layout being passed down to current models as well. Well known for its nimbleness and aerodynamic capabilities, the 356 quickly become a favorite amongst motorsport enthusiasts, but it was the class win at Le Mans in 1951 that put this car on the map.

The first ever production car from iconic German automaker Porsche was the 356. It was made between 1948 and 1965, and was the brainchild of Ferry Porsche, son of Ferdinand Porsche. Over 76,000 were made, and today, it’s estimated that approximately half of that contingent survives. However, getting your hands on an original 356 is quite tough, not to mention expensive. These cars regularly move for six-figure sums of money. That’s why replicas are a great way to get in on the action if you really want a 356, but aren’t too fussed about originality.

The Porsche 356 was the first car that the German automaker Porsche produced. Closely related to the Volkswagen Beetle, the 356 was the work of Ferdinand “Ferry” Porsche, son of Ferdinand Porsche, the man who created the Beetle. Just like the Beetle, the Porsche 356 carries its engine in the tail, an air-cooled flat-four that powers the rear wheels. However, while the Beetle is meant for mass transportation, the Porsche 356 is a lightweight, nimble and speedy sports car. The car was made in three forms: a fixed-head coupe, a canvas-roofed convertible, and a Speedster, which was a convertible, but with a lower profile made possible by a low-raked windshield. Over 76,000 were made, and many were raced, but few owners realized the historic value of the 356 – after all, there’s no such thing as a magical crystal ball, is there? Today, finding an original 356 is a difficult (and costly) endeavor, but thankfully, replicas exist.

Porsche’s first-ever production model, the 356 was a lightweight and nippy sports car that debuted in 1948. Coming in at just under 158 inches long and a smidge over 65 inches wide, it was a truly compact thing that could easily be threaded along narrow roads. It sported an air-cooled flat-four engine in the tail, and wasn’t that much of a departure from the Volkwagen Beetle. No surprise, since Ferdinand Porsche had a hand in the Beetle’s development too.

Kit cars are a more economical way of owning an exotic classic that is hard to find or has become too expensive for most people to buy. The VW Beetle has always been a popular base used by kit car makers thanks to its versatility and easy availability. The Porsche 356 was closely related to the VW Beetle and shared mechanical components with it. The 356’s designer was inspired by a supercharged Beetle Cabriolet he had at the end of WWII and wanted to build a fast rear-engine, air-cooled, 4-cylinder, rear-wheel-drive car. The 356 was introduced in 1948 and produced (with changes) till the mid-60s. In one and a half decades of production, less than 77,000 356s are said to have been built, contributing to its desirability as a collector’s car. The 365 A (which was the model made from 1955-1959) has become a popular car for creating replicas of (such as this one, which is labeled as a 1958 model).
