Porsche celebrates 60 years in South Africa while internationally the iconic automaker marked its 70th anniversary globally this weekend.

Local motorsport hero and Porsche CEO, Toby Venter, invited all Porsche owners to an exclusive event at the Kyalami Grand Prix Circuit.

Spectators were treated to first class entertainment and a chance to watch the Toby Venter Invitational Race.

This of course meant a host of amazing Porsche sports cars all parked in one place, about all 1500 models with more than 4500 guests in attendance.

From classics, sportscars, even supercars, and a very special Porsche in the form of a replicated 356 #1 on loan to Porsche SA from the mothership's Museum in Germany.

Wheels24's Janine Van der Post attended the celebration and shares some images:
