Porsche Experience TV is a new concept developed by Porsche Cars GB that provides fans of the Stuttgart marque with high quality web-streamed films showcasing Porsche cars from past and present.
Visitors to the website can view a selection of classic Porsche sports cars being put through their paces around the track at the Porsche Experience Centre, Silverstone. In a series of videos, Gordon Robertson, Chief Porsche Driving Consultant, tests the cars around the handling circuit and explores their heritage and, of course, performance.
The most recent film describes the iconic 1973 911 2.7 RS, and joins existing features on a 1980s 911 Carrera, a Type 993 911 from 1994, the current 997 911 Carrera and the latest 911 GT3. The Porsche Panamera Turbo is also demonstrated which will be joined by further films will soon. Future candidates for a Porsche Experience TV debut include the 550 Spyder from the 1950s, the forerunner of the present day Boxster roadster.
In addition to Porsche Experience TV, Porsche now has its own channel on YouTube, hosting a wide variety of short video pieces. Here you can find footage of everything from the Boxster to the 911 GT2, but as you might expect it’s Porsche’s historic cars that stand out. These include: the ‘Porsche Family Gathering’ video that shows a remarkable collection of historic Porsche racing cars, and Jacky Ickx’s 1977 Le Mans qualifying lap in the famous Martini-liveried 936.
