Looking for a Porsche poster

When I was a kid my father had a poster which had a 911 flat nose a bottle of bubbly and the woman one under the other.

I think the text said something like "the shape of perfection"...

I have been looking for one since I was old enough to have my own money.

Any one out there know where I might get it, or even know what I am talking about

I have been looking for it for years, and have not found it

That poster and my fathers first 924 is what got me into Porsche - I would love to have that poster...

The one I've been looking for had a 911 Turbo airborne I think it was and some caption about German rocket scientists.

Actually now I look at it, it is not quite the same!

It has the car and the woman the wrong way round, and the woman in the poster my father had was lying down more!?!

Well, 2 of the objects are good looking.

I guess the point of the flatnose was function, not beauty. What an awkward profile. Looks like it was designed by Peugeot.

The poster in that link is a bad re-creation of the original Porsche advertising poster.

My favorite ever, (and I've never been able to find it), was the one with the 1982 LeMans results on it. Porsche was #1-8, Sauber-BMW was #9 and then Porsche was #10. The caption said,

"Nobody's perfect..."
