Porsche is celebrating its 75th anniversary with special edition sports car

It has been 75 years since Porsche first started to create cars. 75 years of creating some of the most iconic and beloved vehicles of all-time, and to mark this monumental milestone, the automobile manufacturer has announced that it is paying homage to its first roadster (the 356) by creating a special edition car known as the Vision 357.

This sports car uses the 356 as a basis of its design DNA, with Porsche describing their design process as attempting to reminisce of the historic archetype while visualising the future.

The car will also be built on the technology platform that gave us the 718 Cayman GT4 RS, and to add to this, we're told that Porsche is showing the car off at the ongoing Volkswagen's Group's DRIVE event in Berlin, with the car remaining on exhibit until mid-February, before it heads to South by Southwest in Austin in March, and other events afterwards.

Needless to say, as you can see in the image below, it is a rather striking car that definitely does the trick to mark 75 years of Porsche.
