Porsche secret prototype warehouse
CAR magazine went backstage at Porsche's secret prototype warehouse for a feature in the new August 2014 issue on sale this week. Join editor-at-large Chris Chilton on his tour inside Porsche's historic vaults.
We shot a video inside the Stuttgart locker and you can see some of Porsche's treasures in our film above. There are strange, long-wheelbase 911s, early concepts for the Panamera, Porsche tractors and prototypes for new models which never saw the light of day such as a convertible 928 and the 956, a model designed to slot between the 959 and 911 Turbo.
It's a feast for fans of Porsche and a treasure trove of Porsche curios. The facility isn't normally open to the public but the company will celebrate 60 years of prototypes in an exhibition at the Porsche museum in Stuttgart in September 2014.
