Thanks indeed. Kind comment like that can only help my cause.

The absolute highlight gotta be the Porsche crest on the tire profile, besides the dope color of course.

I remember seeing this car in nothing more than a small overhead view picture in a magazine but being totally fascinated by it, it’s a car I’ve absolutely loved from first seeing it and as Porsche’s go, it’s right up there with the 959 Dakar and the 917 Le Man winner as my favourites.

this looks like a concept from the 2000 not the 80s. WOW.

This is exactly what it says, "Genuine beauty is timeless." When I was interested in car design, it was a very favorite concept car. I am glad that it was proved over 30 years that my criteria for beauty were not wrong.

Wow. Its really cool that you get to film with these cars and interview the people you do.

I always wanted to see info about this crazy creation! awesome that you were able to make a video about it. Great job, extremely detailed :)

For a concept car from 1989 it looks extremely ahead of its time! If you would’ve told me it was a 996 concept car I’d have completely believed you! The outside looks so incredibly modern for something that was visualized back then!🤯🤯

One if my favourite concept cars growing up. Still think it's fantastic now.

It's gorgeous, certainly not modern

Sleek yet awkward, which was pretty much the impression it gave to my 1989 eyes as well. Thanks for digging it up!

Fantastic Easter egg: you can see the Porsche logo on the tires. In the rubber!

Excellent, great video. Looking forwards to 2021 👍

If they produced this exact concept, I will buy it in a heartbeat! Looks retro and modern at the same time! Porsches are the best looking moving pieces of art ever!!

The matchup of the hood lines and the body lines with lights are beautiful

Amazing picture Quality - well done. the car itself is a masterpiece. thank you very much for bringing it back.to life.

Indeed, a huge privilege. I too was itching for a cold start but the car was not started once all day! A good excuse to go back, I feel…

in the 80/90s purple and this mint/turquoise was quite popular at least in germany, the ICE and interregio trains had this color scheme inside and also many kitchens and other furnitures from this area, In the 2000s it looked so outdated but now i miss this colors and find them very stylish

Those tyres with the Porsche shield in the tread are amazing!

Great video. Appreciate your hard work in researching and telling the history. Sets you apart from other 911 KZreadrs.

Must have been a fantastic experience!!!

Great looking car. The color concept being a child of the 80‘s apparently... but imagine it in silver or black 🤩

I'm speechless. Literally. I mean, I don't know what to think or to say about the Panamericana? Never have I've seen a car that stumped me to this degree. I'm scratching my head. Great video, though.

Way ahead of it's time, honestly, if someone told me this was next year's 911 I could believe it, wouldn't like all the changes, but I could believe it. Mostly just the wheel arches I don't like, never been a fan of the exposed tire look, even then, it grows on you.

Damn! That was a nice video (again)... 👌

reminds me a bit of alfa romeo disco volante... which came out in 2012. says a lot about porsche concept lol. while disco volante was obviously half modern, half retro, the fact that it is hard to say which car looks more modern is quite a testament to designers at porsche.

I have the Road & Track that showed this car...I remember when Porsche came out with this and I loved it...and still do!!

Remember it like it was yesterday.

Looks so cool. That car was lightyears ahead, it still looks modern today.

I saw this when it was first released. I drove a 964 then following a 1973 911 targa and my later 911 SC. I thought then it was too ugly. Now seeing it many years later, nothing has changed. A disaster avoided. Today, at weekends, I drive a 996 Turbo x50 ... The finest 911 of them all up to 2002. A true Supercar

AM I the only one loving this car? Amazing !!!

I remember the concept That 964 cabriolet at 6:06 I loved the way they moved it at the end

How can one do this with fenders cut out behind wheels? Rocks will strip paint down sides of car. Not usable.

The teal and purple colour scheme is pure 90's!

4:08 When you realize that even the profile of the tires have the porsche crest on them.. :D

Looks like a Zagato design, like the Fiat coupe from the 90's too!

why oh why dont these car companies make the concept in their raw pure form . this is a stunning one

I saw it in Stuttgart at the Porsche museum. A must see place for every car lover. as well as the Mercedes one - also in Stuttgart

love the porsche logos on the tire thread

I have an old article about this somewhere I must dig out. From "Car" or "Autocar and Motor" magazine I think. Looked outrageously good back in 1989

Any chance they'll ever let you do a video with the almighty 911 GT1 Straßenversion?

Stunning! =One Love= -A

I'm so in love with this car.

Great video! Does anyone know the name of the intro music?

Awesome 👍🏻

He was worse

The Porsche Motor Company was founded by Ferdinand Porsche. He died in 1951. 'Ferry" was his son.

That my grandfather dream car, look awesome

I don’t think ferry founded the Porsche company.. his father Ferdinand did in 1931 in Stuttgart. Ferry worked with his father in the business up until Ferdinand’s passing in 51’, than ferry inherited the business, preserved and kept the company style & spirit alive & well. Really cool to see that 911 concept car!

Great video Lee, very significant car indeed. Not a personal fan of the styling though would love to have been a fly on the wall when they gave him that!

Agreed! Rumour has it Ferry wasn't a fan, but Porsche wouldn't comment on that when asked about it, understandably…

Thanks!

Are those porsche crests in the tire tread?

This is a typical classic German design. If you had made it back then, the beauty would still have turned your head. If you make it now, it will do the same. If you'll make it in 20 years from the date you are reading this, it will still turn your head and your eyes will feast. The same goes for the Mercedes 2 seat cabrio SL from the late 1970's' through 1989, Mercedes SLC of late 1970's to 1980's with the rear window fins, the BMW 5 and 6 series sedan/coupe of the 1980's pushing towards 2000, the Porsche Panamericana, 959, retooled Spyder, mid 1990's 911 Turbo, and today - at least in my eyes, the 2021 Porsche 911 Targa 4 which will keep the whole thing rolling. Now, I wish I could only own one:(

Ultra kustom Meyers Manx dune buggy!

Wow, I would have guessed that was a late 90s concept; not an '89.. The backend looks similar in design to 911s from the early 2000s (996). Impressive that it was so far ahead of it's time.

Really cool... looks like a 911 Dune Buggy

This car is dope I thought it was a modern concept car. They should put this into production.

Wow.... just Wow.

if they made this car more of a motorsports setup in terms of the curves, that would be probably the most beautiful 911 ever ever ever.

The exterior kinda reminds me of the alfa romeo disco volante

Wow! This looks much better than the most Porsche-Models.. I think they should bring this on the road! By the way: you seem to be one of the very few not german people, who are able to speak out the word "Porsche" correctly! Cause it´s not "Porsch" and even not "Porschii", it´s PorschE"! :-D

Imo it’s breathtakingly beautiful. Porsche’s are sometimes accused of being too refined and this is just wild.

My first sight of this beauty. Almost vulgar in appearance, however breathtaking in its simplicity. I realize that production plans was terminated due to Porsche on the verge of bankruptcy at the time. (learning from the disastrous BMW 507 story) From that perspective the 986 development proved to be the real life saver, however please Porsche we, the enthusiasts want this 9114x4 off roader. Produce at least a thousand of them.

Love it!

Thank goodness it stayed in the concept stage

Would drive that today more eagerly than other porsches. They should build it!

that is creatively designed

I think it's a really good looking car, I absolutely love 90s cars.

It is a thing of wonder and beauty. I think someone should make a conversion kit (maybe Porsche themselves).

thats a weird thing of beauty . love the 80s colors on it as well

I had the privilege of meeting Harm Lagaay during this time as a student. Super impressed about his professionalism and his willingness to help a kid (me). and I loved this design.

Can't see it as a 911. As a replacement for the VW Thing? Absolutely! Long overdue...

Ok Porsche had me when I saw the giant light with the co name like my old 944... this ch is 👍
