1951 Porsche 356 Pre-A Split-Window Coupe, supplied by D'Ieteren
Early production example Iconic design Favored by collectors
Up for sale: a rare and highly sought-after 1951 Porsche 356 Pre-A Coupe, featuring the distinctive split windshield and early body design that helped shape Porsche legend.
Built during the first full year of production in Stuttgart, this example represents one of the earliest forms of the iconic 356 and demonstrates the pure, lightweight design philosophy envisioned by Ferry Porsche.
These early cars are especially prized for their sleek style, slim bumpers and handcrafted charm.
Under the skin, they share much with the original Volkswagen layout, but with Porsche's refinements that made them competitive and enjoyable to drive.
The 1951 model still features signature details such as the pointed roofline, minimalist interior and early-style dashboard, often equipped with radios of the era and unique finishes found only on early cars.
This generation of the 356 also laid the foundation for Porsche's success in motorsports and quickly gained a loyal fan base among car enthusiasts.
Split-window cars prior to the A-generation from this period are becoming increasingly rare, especially well-preserved or properly restored examples.
Whether for historic events, classic rallies or as an eye-catcher in a collection, this 1951 356 offers a special opportunity to own an ??important piece of Porsche history.
