The new car made its public debut at the 1963 Internationale Automobil-Ausstellung, better known to English speakers as the Frankfurt Motor Show.After 11 years in production, the Porsche 911 received its first serious facelift when 'Model Year 1974' saw the introduction of the new torque-rich, smoother, cleaner, and more economical ‘G-programme' 2.7-litre models, including the 150bhp 911, 175bhp 911S and 210bhp Carrera.
