In the midst of the pandemic, Porsche began to peel back the curtain on some of its previously top-secret concept cars and design processes. Dubbed “Porsche: Unseen,” the campaign highlights select show cars, along with commentary from their designers. This year at South by Southwest, a mega-conference aimed at the film, music, and tech industries, Porsche brought a few of its Unseen cars to the heart of Austin, Texas, where thousands of fans and car-curious streamed through a custom-built display to see what could have been.
Among the eye candy, in addition to a full-sized model of the new Vision GT race car was the 551 Vision Spyder, 904 Living Legend, and the 960 Turismo — all of which will be explored in greater depth in upcoming CDN Concept of the Week features.
