Company picks LA for this major debut as city represents its largest volume metro market in the world!

WHAT: Porsche will take the wraps off its next generation mid-engine
sports cars at this year's Los Angeles Auto Show. These new cars
will come with Porsche's new engine and transmission technology
as well as many other significant technical and exterior
refinements.

Also, for the first time ever at an auto show in the U.S.,
Porsche will display the initial car to carry the Porsche name
and first mid-engine-a historic 60-year-old vehicle known simply
and affectionately as Porsche No.1.

The company is also featuring the Porsche 550 Spyder, the famous
mid-engine sports car and the first Porsche specifically
designed as a race car. This 1955 550 RS Spyder is on loan from
the special collection of Jerry Seinfeld.
