https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFrO_X2V1_I Choosing a personal moniker could be a challenging task not to talk of naming a car that would be bought by millions of people with diverse cultures. After much deliberation, the car was named Porsche 901. However, Peugeot had already trademarked all three-digit numbers with Zero in the middle. Hence, Peugeot served Porsche a notice not to use the 901 moniker. Porsche had to look for the least expensive solution as they had already printed 901 badges to stick on the body and the dashboard of the car. So they decided to swap the 0 in the middle with a 1.. and the 911 model has been waxing stronger since 1963. https://autojosh.com/iconic-porsche-911-got-name/ Lalasticlala Mynd44 Ishilove Marpol Semid4lyfe Obinoscopy Seun 2 Likes 1 Share

Why would Peugeot do that? As they've done that, what's up with their sales? I wouldn't have bothered if I were Porsche. Just put a P before adding the 901 and it becomes P901. Now I'm beginning to understand why we have the following cars : RX300, Mercedes C300 and GL450. Just put a letter or two and you are good to go. |

maberry: Peugeot is currently the largest car manufacturer in the world since they partnered with Nissan. They used to be 3rd, only behind Toyota and Volkswagen. Modified: I meant Renault. You were right, Peugeot is sh*te |

Emekus92:Sorry boy but you've got your history upside-down the Porsche 911 was built in 1963 .so as you can see this iconic classical was built almost 40 years b4 911. The September 11th attacks happened in 2001 (my 2nd year @ uni) Incidentally September 11 also happens to be the Ethiopian new year day celebrations When making comments it makes sense to look at things in the proper chronological / historical context. Just wanted you to know |
