One Of The First Boxster Prototypes Was Built Using A 911 Body

Last November Porsche asked fans and owners to “Test Their Porsche Knowledge” by watching a series of videos and that revealed various “secrets” about the Porsche 911 and then answering questions as quickly as possible about the Porsches that were just revealed. The cars in quiz included a 911 Aerodynamic Concept, 911 SC E African Rally Car, 911 Mid Engine, 911 V8, The first 911 Turbo and a 911 San Remo Rally Car. The video below highlights one of Porsche’s first Boxster prototypes. The biggest secret with this one is that the engine is mounted in a 911 Targa. To keep their secret from the eyes of curious onlookers, Porsche heavily tinted the rear windows in an effort to obscure this 911s mid-engine placement.

If you’re interested, I believe the original quiz is still online. While the contest itself has ended, you might still be able to play and see how fast you can answer the questions as compared to others on the leaderboard. For more info on the quiz, check out our original post, “Take This Quiz and Test Your Porsche Knowledge“.
