A Tour Through the Quirky Porsche Panamericana Concept

12/13/202011:40 estFiled to: Porsche PrototypesBy: Tommy Parry3 Comments

Built for Ferry Porsche's 80th birthday, the 1989 Panamericana resided stylistically between the more conservative shapes of the eighties and the experimental, often divisive cosmetic touches which made up Porsche's repertoire at the end of the following decade. Finished in a coat of aquamarine and clearly meant to turn heads, this beautifully …

Porsche’s Designers Made A Race Support Van Concept

11/12/20206:06 estFiled to: Porsche PrototypesBy: Bradley BrownellComment

The original Porsche Renndienst van, a high-roof Volkswagen Type 2, was employed throughout the late 1950s and early 1960s as Porsche's European racing support van. That little red magic bus carried tools and spares for everything from 718 Spyders to formula racers and 904s. It's fair to say that this van has seen a lot of action over the years. …

11/12/20205:41 estFiled to: Porsche PrototypesBy: Bradley Brownell1 Comment

Today Porsche unveiled a trio of concept cars that the design department had built, but never saw the light of day.

Porsche Built A Le Mans Car For The Street That Never Made It To Production

11/12/20205:09 estFiled to: Porsche PrototypesBy: Bradley BrownellComment

Porsche's all-conquering 919 Hybrid won races, titles, and our hearts in the span of its four-season run in the top-flight LMP1 class of the FIA World Endurance Championship.

What Is This High-Riding Porsche 911 Prototype Spied In Testing?

10/24/20205:03 estFiled to: Porsche PrototypesBy: Bradley BrownellComment

Here's a weird one. Earlier this week the Porsche shown here was spied testing at the Nurburgring. It looks pretty much like a regular 992 Carrera 4S but it's sitting much higher on its suspension and has weird fender flare wheel arches. In the spy video below from StateSideSuperCars, this oddball 992 is powersliding all over the place, jumping …

The Secrets Behind The Porsche 919 Evo’s Record-Breaking Speed

8/4/202012:00 estFiled to: Porsche PrototypesBy: Tommy Parry1 Comment

When an LMP1 car with multiple titles behind it is no longer shackled by a thick rulebook, engineers can run rampant and create something special. In the case of the Porsche 919 and the resulting one-lap variant, it proves that a little excess and a lot of technical development leaves a lasting impression on the public. The base car, which is a …

GT4 RS Spied Testing at the Nurburgring

4/30/20208:00 estFiled to: Porsche Cayman, Porsche PrototypesBy: Tommy ParryComment

Despite wearing a coat of incognito black, this test mule's NACA ducts, swan neck wing, and a raspier exhaust note leave an indelible impression on the keen observer's mind. The unmistakable shape and even proportions of a 718 Cayman, dressed in all the aerodynamic accessories, suggest that Porsche is looking at wedging a harder, faster version of …

Reviving Hans Mezger’s Personal 911S

4/29/20191:14 estFiled to: Porsche PrototypesBy: Chris Cushing1 Comment

Per Michael Eiden, the current owner of this red 911S; “The previous owner was really desperate. He had the body of the car restored and also replaced the side panels with the corresponding spare parts. But when assembling it, nothing fitted together again – it was like it was jinxed.” But the reason the bodywork wouldn't fit back together wasn't …

Porsche’s Top Five Secret Prototypes

12/31/201811:16 estFiled to: Porsche PrototypesBy: Tommy ParryComment

Few people get a sense of how groundbreaking Porsche's cars are, as they so often blend into the background in a chic location. Nonetheless, the thought and innovation present in every one of their varied designs make Porsche a special marque. Even more so—some of their incredible cars didn't quite make the cut, and here are a few of those special …

12/28/20189:53 estFiled to: Porsche PrototypesBy: Bradley BrownellComment

Stuttgart-based firm Dannenhauer and Stauss built an unknown number of sporty coupes and convertibles from 1950 until 1957, pairing a few bits from Volkswagen and a few bits from Porsche with their own Reutter bodywork for a fun little sports machine. Some say the firm produced as many as 135 examples of the small sports car, but only about five of …
