"It [the first Porsche] will live on in all of our cars."

You can only hope.

That has to be Ferry Porsche or his son.

Spooky video IMHO.

I doubt any of the 944 or 928 shown already use much of that first Porsche soul.

Dr. Ing. h.c. btw - an honorary Dr. from Univ. of Stuttgart and another from Vienna. Of course, being from title loving Austria, that Dr. Ing. h.c. had to go on every car!

That was son Ferry: "The first Porsche, built in 1948, is still with us."
(?)
The advertisement ignores his father's creations, among them the VW Bug and the 1901 Lohner-Porsche Mixte Hybrid.

I think Ferry grew up in Austria. I saw him speaking in German in a video at the museum in Gmuend a few weeks ago and he definitely had the Austrian dialect. His father was born in what is now the Czech Republic, but was then the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
