Porsche Opens “Fascination Sports Cars” Gallery
Porsche recently announced the grand-opening of its “Fascination Sports Car” exhibit in the capital city of Berlin, and by the looks of it—it’s pretty stunning!
As part of this brand exhibit, Porsche is presenting seven select show cars at the “DRIVE. Volkswagen Group Forum” “Unter den Linden” – cars that fascinated back then just as they do today. Among them the 718 Boxster will be officially revealed for the first time in Germany.
“This is the first time we are giving automobile enthusiasts such an insight into our brand in the German capital,” emphasised Achim Stejskal, Head of the Porsche Museum. “At the same time, visitors can also experience our vision – ‘The Future of Performance’ – interactively.” First, the visitor is welcomed by a model of a 550 Spyder in the exhibit area.
There is also a world championship exhibit for motorsport fans. The Porsche 919 Hybrid dominated in the 2015 race season of the FIA WEC (World Endurance Championship). In the second year after returning to the Le Mans prototype class, the LMP1, the race cars with start numbers 17, 18 and 19 won the three most important season trophies with the manufacturers’ title, drivers’ title and victory at Le Mans. In Berlin, visitors can see the winning vehicle that Porsche factory drivers Earl Bamber, Nico Hülkenberg and Nick Tandy drove to victory in the 24 Hours of Le Mans last year.
