Book Reviews of Porsche: Excellence Was Expected: The Comprehensive History of the Company, its Cars and its Racing Heritage - 2008 Update
Book Review: Essential Reading for All Porsche Enthusiasts
Summary: 5 Stars
Each iteration of "Excellence Was Expected" provide Porsche owners and fans a great deal of evidence that indeed, the genius of Ferdinand Porsche was real and that the cars he created are all special. The historical photos are fantastic and I only wish that there was an audio companion piece to bring some of the drivers' perspectives on their famous cars to life. This is a book that never seems to be on the shelf in our house.
