Porsche opens pop-up store in New York
With the theme "The Sound of Porsche:
Stories of the Brand" Porsche has
created a completely new, interactive
brand experience with its first stop in
New York City for three weeks.
The sports car manufacturer from
Stuttgart has opened an exclusive
pop-up store in the style of a modern
music store in Manhattan's trendy
Meatpacking District and invites visitors
to discover Porsche and its fascinating
sports cars in various ways. The store
opening was celebrated on 15
September 2014 - moderated by
fashion icon Angela Simmons and with
guests including Porsche works drivers
Brendon Hartley and Patrick Long, as
well as actor and racing driver Patrick
Dempsey, who has been a firm part of
the Porsche motorsport family since
2013 with his team Dempsey Racing.
"The new marketing format enables us
to connect with young and
young-at-heart visitors in an appealing
way. We are helping these people to
better understand the brand through
unusual stories", says Bernhard Maier,
Member of the Executive Board for
Sales and Marketing at Porsche AG,
explaining the idea behind this
temporary happening. This interactive
brand experience enables visitors to
explore the technical top performance
and stylish design of Porsche in depth.
Bernhard Maier: "It is an innovative way
of telling and experiencing the story of
our brand."
Detlev von Platen, CEO of Porsche
North America, is also convinced by the
unusual way of presenting the brand:
"The pop-up store supplements existing
marketing activities in a new way. It will
further increase awareness for our
brand in close cooperation with the local
Porsche centres."
The event space is divided into three
areas and comprises a Sound Lab,
Media Stations and a Design Corner.
The Sound Lab is all about the cult car
Porsche 911. The 911 is a prime
example of design, innovation, quality
and perfection, and the film "From Draft
to Drift - The Porsche 911" conveys this
particularly clearly to visitors. In
addition, visitors can take a virtual ride
and become acquainted with the 911
through sound and visualisation. They
can choose between the sound
backdrop of a city, a rural setting in a
drive through the mountains or a race
on the Nürburgring racetrack.
2
The Media Stations allow visitors to
experience 16 specially produced
stories all about the brand. The visual
highlights include the contributions
"Electrifying Performance" and "One of
Us" with Porsche racing drivers Mark
Webber and Patrick Dempsey. Further
contributions of interest to Porsche
enthusiasts include "Porsche Exclusive The Most Personal Car" and "A Porsche
goes to Hollywood" with cartoon film
star Sally Carrera.
Last but not least the Design Corner
features a communications space where
visitors can sketch what they associate
with the Sound of Porsche. The works of
art can be uploaded to social networks
via #soundofporsche. The visitor with
the best design will win a trip to
Stuttgart.

New Special Exhibition at the Porsche Museum: "Project: Top Secret!"
Development, research and meticulous attention to detail make
up the very core of Porsche's success. This is reflected in the
company's name: "Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG." Currently, over
4,500 engineers work at the Porsche Development Center in
Weissach, ensuring that Porsche always stays one step ahead
of the competition. The path to new innovations is not always
easy or straightforward. Many great ideas and concepts never
make it to production due to technical or economic reasons.
However, they are often utilized in research projects or concept
cars. Most of this happens behind closed doors - for good
reason: great ideas are frequently copied by others. This is why
many of the concept cars and experimental vehicles never
leave the Weissach Development Center. After projects are
completed, these vehicles are usually scrapped. However, cars
used in particularly vital or exciting projects were stored in the
fleet of the Porsche Museum. As part of this special exhibition,
they are now being revealed to the general public for the first
time.
shown before. The prototype of the Porsche 965
high-performance sports car, which was powered by a
water-cooled V-8 mounted in the rear, is also being revealed for
the very first time.
Cars from the 1990s include vehicles that never made it past
the experimental stage such as the four-door Porsche 989
"family sports car," whose design turned out to set the course
for future vehicle generations. The Type 986 A4 subframe
ended up being just as unique. This prototype, based on a
Porsche 911 Targa (Type 964), was used to test the
mid-engine concept of the Boxster model series.
From the most recent past is a camouflaged prototype of the
Porsche Panamera, which reveals a great deal of insight into
the comprehensive testing of new models. Last but not least,
current topics such as hybrid technology are featured in the
"Project: Top Secret!" special exhibition. Visitors have the
unique opportunity to view the "rolling chassis" of the 918
Spyder super sports car, serving as a technological showpiece
for the future.
All 16 vehicles on display perfectly illustrate the spirit of the
times or the corporate context of the respective decade. For
example in 1973, Porsche addressed the prevailing energy
crisis with the advanced "Forschungsprojekt Langzeit Auto",
which means extended durability research vehicle - a car that
was designed to operate reliably and efficiently for many
decades thanks to state-of-the-art engineering paired with the
use of lightweight and environmentally-friendly materials. The
world-record setting Porsche 924 and the Type 995
experimental passenger car are other projects from this era.
Seven exhibition cars date back to the 1980s, including a
Porsche 959 aerodynamic prototype, a 928 Cabriolet as well
as the Roadster Type 984 concept car that has never been
