Porsche 356 SL Coupe

This is the Porsche 356 SL Coupe, which was built in 1950. It is a light-alloy coupe, a car that made it possible for Porsche to race. "The engine is located behind the rear axle," a card about the car at the museum reads, "and even without a wind tunnel the aluminum body has a very low drag coefficient." Part of its aerodynamics come from the wheel covers, as well as the fact that its ignition key had perforations that saved additional weight.
