It’s not like you need a reason to watch a video of the legendary Porsche 959, but what we have here is bit more special, as it is about a very special 959. It is the number 1 of 6 prototype built for the late professor Helmuth Bott, the head of Porsche R&D back then. The car is now in possession of Brumos Collection.

This video includes interviews with from former Porsche racing driver Hurley Haywood, director of Brumos Collection Don Leatherwood, and former Porsche CEO Peter Shutz. They tell you the story of how the Porsche 959 came to be, and how it ended up being one of the most technologically advanced cars of the era.
