A Waste Of A Porsche
I’m not entirely sure what kind of Porsche this is (a Porsche 356?), but what a waste!
Pulled out of a Russian lake:

Yup, it’s a Porsche 356. I thought it was pulled out of a farmers pond in the midwest US though?

You scared me, I thought you were saying the Porsche in the first picture was a waste. But yes it’s a 356. The 944 was a hatch, and I don’t think the 927 existed.

927??? No such thing
944, are you kidding, they came out in 1982 till ‘91
The 356 was made until 1965

Sad, What a waste of a beautiful car. Makes you wonder if they found bones in it, You would think if the driver lived he would have pulled it out.

This is a Porsche 356C (last 356) from 1964 or 1965, as I see.

The t-6 body 356c are the least valuable 356s today but they were the best 356s made. At least it wasn’t a 356 based Carrera 2 or a speedster.

This is the RSR lightweight model they made in limited numbers for racing applications. This technique reduced body weight significantly but was soon outlawed by the race sanctioning groups.
