The original and complete tool kit in my old car went off to Istanbul. Probably worth quite a bit these days. I kept my carry tools...Craftsman combo wrenches, sockets, ratchets, screwdrivers, pliers, etc. All in a handy little "gatemouth" brand canvas tool roll. It has a nifty row of clips to keep both 1/4" and 3/8" sockets in place.
Long ago, I discovered that three LL Bean small canvas duffle bags fit perfectly side by side in the upper part of the early 911 trunk.
Your point well made though...on how the Porsche philosophy, image, and marketing has changed. It was always around, but to a much lesser degree than today.
