Appreciated by enthusiasts and collectors worldwide. Factually supported by unparalleled detailed factory documentation. And frequently cited by historians, owners and collectibles dealers alike. The Rare Porsches collective of historical archives developed by Mark Smith represents almost three decades of building repositories of history on rare, low production and unique Porsche models … and discovering the stories behind their successes and failures.

Mark Smith having transacted in many rare Porsches, maintains the world’s largest and deepest chassis ID (VIN) specific vehicle data and digital media repository, including a substantial photo portfolio. Much of this content was previously available on his now shuttered flachbau.com and pors9.com websites and is now destined to be republished on the Rare Porsches site over time.
