RIP Butzi.
Great quote for the Bloomberg link above:
“As creator of the Porsche 911, he established a design culture that molds our sportscars still today,” Matthias Mueller, chief executive officer of Porsche AG, said in an e- mailed statement. “His philosophy of good design is for us a legacy that we will also honor in the future.”

Thanks for creating the dream for so many.
My new guiding principle as an engineer:
“design must be functional and the functionality must be visually implemented without gags that need to be explained,”

A sad day indeed. Every time I drive my 964 or my fathers 68 912 I get to drive in his inspiration, his design, his legacy. I even hold onto a Porsche Design steering wheel with "Designed by F.A. Porsche" stamped on it. He will never be forgotten in this community.
