Porsche
Ferdinand Porsche died in 1951, so he never saw the 911 sports car that so many people today see as the ultimate road going sports car. He had however been active in automobile design and modification since around 1929. He had used his expertise and design flare to collaborate with the likes of Mercedes and Auto Union on various successful projects. Perhaps his biggest single achievement (certainly pre-war) was the project culminating in the design of the Porsche Type 60 in 1938, which was to become the Volkswagen Beetle when it went into mass production after the war in 1945.
