This certificate proves various data at the time of manufacturing Classic Porsche and the current vehicle condition.

By the way, although there was no name on the list in this announcement from Porsche Japan, as models other than the above, "959" and "968" are also included in the model list that is certified overseas, so these are also targeted I think it will be.

It is the price to get this Porsche Classic Technical Certificate issued, but it seems that it is 500 dollars + tax (about 53,000 yen + tax) in the United States.
If you own a Classic Porsche, it may be a certificate that you may be interested in.
It seems that a photo of the exterior and interior of the car will be included in the certificate, so I feel that it will be a good memorial ^ ^
