1973 Porsche 911 Carrera Papercraft

At an auction this year in August, a 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2.7 sold for $430,000. Part of the auction literature states:
"The 1973 911 Carrera RS Coupe is among the most sought-after versions of Porsche’s evergreen sports car, and it is the one that is most copied by marque enthusiasts. It is so widely admired that there are far more replicas than the real deal."
It appears that the admiration for the car extends to creating paper replicas as well. ;) The paper model pictured was created by Japanese paper modeler Takumi. The template for the model may be downloaded here.

    1. The model was designed before 2004 when technology was not as good. The printed template should look much better than it does on a computer screen. The template's quality might be improved by using Photoshop to increase the resolution. The Photoshop filter "sharpen" might also help.
