Designers Ben Dimson and Cheryl Dimson played a huge part in the Porsche story during their time at the company in the 1980s and early 1990s. Ben helped with the styling of the 928, 944, 964 and 959, while Cheryl was responsible for the restyling of the Porsche crest, plus the creation of the new-famous 'Carrera', 'turbo', and 'targa' script adorning the rear of 911s of the time, among many other things. Their contribution to Porsche is huge, and yet many people don't know their story - until now!

Lee, you just keep bringing it, well done and busy few weeks for you. Thank You.
Great interview and Ben has an incredible talent. Wasn't aware of Cheryl input, very interesting.
Had 13years of beautiful motoring in my manual C2 PTS.
Thanks for the kind words! It’s always an honour to share these stories through honest, proper journalism. We are grateful to Ben & Cheryl for their time.
It was a great evening . Thanks for letting me get involved Lee , was another experience added to my Porsche story 😃
The pleasure was all mine mate, thank you for making it happen with the 964. My new 9WTV co-host!
I want to meet these people and say thank you.
Lee you keep smashing it, I could of listened to this for hours more
How this only got very little views is beyond me
👍❤️
Simply fascinating. One doesn’t imagine what a designer’s task really consists of. Let alone how the work in progress is subdevided amongst the members of a team. So this interview answers quite a few of these questions. Thanks for that 👍🏻
Thank you, great Interview and great Designers👌
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very interesting video Lee well done.
Glad you enjoyed it.
Fascinating program! I imagine that the lovely ‘Spyder’ script on my 981 Spyder has a link back to Cheryl’s original scripts…
Yes there's clear lineage with Cheryl's work in the script on your Spyder for sure. History on wheels! Thank you for watching.
This piece desperately needs B-roll.
