356 C Cabriolet
The Porsche 356, produced from 1948 to 1965, was the brand's very first production car.
It symbolised Porsche's beginnings as an independent manufacturer and marked the transition from post-war craftsmanship to top-of-the-range industrial production.
The 1965 Cabriolet represented the last cabriolets produced on the basis of the 356.
The 356 C retained much of the styling of the previous versions, but with a refined and reliable powertrain, the result of almost 17 years of development
Four-wheel disc brakes, the first on a 356
New rear suspension for improved roadholding
Bodywork by Reutter, one of Porsche's historic partners (before it was absorbed by Porsche in 1963)
It became the last Porsche convertible with an air-cooled 4-cylinder rear engine until the 912.
Total production of the Porsche 356 C Cabriolet (1964-1965): around 3,265 units
1965 estimate: between 1,000 and 1,200 units
Of these, probably several hundred delivered to the United States via Hoffman
Max Hoffman
Max Hoffman was an influential New York-based importer, responsible for introducing many European marques to the American market, including Porsche, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Alfa Romeo and others.
He imported the first Porsche to the US in 1950
Convinced Ferry Porsche to create specific versions for the American market
Played a crucial role in the success of the 356 in the United States
The 1965 356 C Cabriolet sold via Max Hoffman was often well equipped to appeal to wealthy American customers
Today, they are highly sought-after, especially if they have their Certificate of Origin (COA), which states "Hoffman, New York" as the delivery point.
Between 400 and 600 1965 356 C/SC Cabriolets were probably sold through Hoffman in New York.
