17 September, 2014 to 11 January, 2015: „Project: Top secret!“
Everybody knows them but nobody talks about them – except us! Learn more about five decades of Porsche concept cars and prototypes.
As a living automobile museum, the Porsche-Museum annually presents numerous special exhibitions on specific topics or meaningful anniversaries. 2014, Porsche`s return to Le Mans will be honored with an extensive exhibition. The Porsche museum dedicates 60 years of Porsche concept cars and prototypes with the special exhibition „Project: Top Secret!“. Due to that special anniversary you might miss your personal favorite car in the exhibition.
As the physical manifestation of future concepts and technological strokes of genius, prototypes are as indispensable as they are confidential. Some are ahead of their time or just too bold, but they are never useless. Experience these models first hand in our upcoming special exhibition “Project: Top Secret!” in the Porsche Museum starting from September 17
The first Porsche was built in 1948 and the first Porsche Club was established just four years later: a group of seven Porsche drivers founded the Westfälischer Porsche Club Hohensyburg, now known as the Porsche Club Westfalen e. V., on 26 May 1952. The purpose – as set out in the Club’s founding articles – was ‘…to bring together all Porsche drivers in a spirit of friendship and camaraderie…’. That same year saw the formation of a second Porsche Club with six members initially – the Porsche Club Berlin e. V. The movement took off and there are now 640 official Porsche Clubs in 75 countries with a total of approximately 181,000 members. They are all enthusiastic about the Porsche brand and are part of a unique Porsche family
To mark the 60th anniversary, something very special has been planned. In honour of the 13 founding Porsche Club members and all Porsche Club members worldwide, Porsche Community Management has teamed up with Porsche Exclusive to create an exceptional vehicle: the Limited edition Porsche 911 Club Coupe. The exterior colour is Brewster Green in tribute to the Porsche family colour and these custom-made vehicles are limited to just 13. With extensive custom equipment and a Carrera S Powerkit engine upgrade to 316 kW (430 hp), a SportDesign package, 20-inch SportTechno wheels painted in exterior colour and lavish interior refinement, Porsche Exclusive has drawn on the full range of options it offers for ultimate personalisation. The colour concept of the dark green exterior and Espresso natural leather interior with contrasting stitching in Luxor Beige references unforgettable birthday presents given to Ferry Porsche, such as the long-wheelbase 928 S in Oak Green Metallic from 1984. The Limited edition Porsche 911 Club Coupe’s exclusivity is underlined by the switch panel trim strip with logo which is crafted individually for each customer and illuminated door entry guards bearing the model designation and anniversary logo.
Only very few Club members will have the opportunity to acquire this exclusive Porsche 911 honouring the first Clubs. Porsche will retain one vehicle on behalf of Porsche Club World. For the right to purchase one of the twelve remaining custom-made vehicles, members may register between 26 May and 16 July 2012, after which time the twelve lucky winners will be determined by means of an official draw. Entry is restricted to Porsche Club members only, who may participate by visiting www.porsche.com/911-club-coupe.
