Throughout 356B production, Porsche introduced some of the most significant developments ever made on the 356. Improvements were focused upon handling, ride and refinement as well as their little sports car sparking performance. The reliability was further enhanced whilst Porsche also made a few subtle aesthetic tweaks, all of which upped the original cars appeal and firmly established it as far the best car in its class. With the B, Porsche introduced subtly revised bodywork for the 356, the cars built between September 1959 and August 1961 often being referred to as T-5 versions and subsequesntly, the T-6. They netherthe less retained all the hallmarks that had made the 356 great. The rear seats were lowered to optimiose headroom and also split centrally in order to facilitate three passengers and their luggage- should such a feat be required.
