There's Still Time To Win A Copy Of Porsche "911 x 911"
|
Porsche's 50th Anniversary of the 911 has come and gone, but that doesn't mean you can't still benefit from all the goodness surrounding their golden jubilee.
This week, thanks to David Bull Publishing, we have a copy of the Porsche Museum's commemorative book on the 50 years of the 911 to give away. Originally planned for last summer the book didn't actually make it onto shelves until Christmas time of 2013. In fact,
we didn't get our copy until last month. Let me tell you, it was worth the wait! Nearly 1000 pages featuring every generation of the 911 awaits you in this gorgeously designed and bound "deluxe scrapbook". Assembled to Porsche's exacting standards this book is available exclusively at the Porsche Museum and certain booksellers in the U.K.
Priced at $99.95 here in the U.S., you can buy it from David Bull Publishing or win a copy here on FLATSIXES.com. If you would like
to win a copy simply find the answers to the following two questions (read the questions carefully):
1. Who Is The Author Of "Porsche 917 x 17"?
2. How many pages are in "911 x 911"?
Then email us your answers, along with your full name and shipping address by Sunday May 4th (if you have trouble with the email link you can use our contact form). Will pick one random winner from the correct entries and announce the winner in our newsletter on May 6th. Your copy will ship directly from David Bull. While
anyone can participate, we can only ship to locations in the U.S. and Canada.
