    BACKGROUND: The Porsche 911 40th Anniversary Celebration honors 40
        years of Porsche 911 cars. Over 40 Porsche cars will be on
        display at Carousel Porsche from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on
        Saturday, June 19.

        At the Porsche 911 40th Anniversary Celebration, the cars are
        the stars. Many of the Porsche vehicles that will be present
        at this event are rare and are not often showcased. Earlier
        this year, Porsche Cars North America held a similar event in
        Daytona Beach, Fla., the only other time an event of this
        magnitude has been held in the United States.

        The Porsche 911 40th Anniversary Celebration will be one of
        the few times car enthusiasts will have an opportunity to see
        one model car from each Porsche production year under one roof
        anywhere in the world.

        Porsche owners will be on-hand to sign posters and talk with
        other Porsche and car enthusiasts. Proceeds from the
        autographed posters benefit Courage Center. The proceeds from
        a silent auction benefit Courage Center as well.

        The 911 40th Anniversary Celebration is free of charge and
        open to the public. For more information about the event,
        please contact Mark Bouljon at Carousel Porsche at
