The team consisted of Porsche car lovers, industrial designers, and expert of digital photo engineering were designing a long-tailed Porsche 908/04 Vision GT concept car. 

Such design is the need for the racing cars in the 1960s and 1970s, at which time the cars were made to have maximum downforce. At that time also Porsche dominated in many racing circuits through the models, such as 917LT, 935/78, and 908 LH.

Long-tailed cars were indeed fast, but actually more difficult to drive. The car like this then disappear along with advances in technology, particularly how to increase downforce without compromising the car's dimensions. 

But the team that makes the rendering images thought that the essence of this project is the revival, in which the products were ever raised the name of Porsche in the racing arenas enshrined, not in terms of technology.

The driver was not spoiled by the sequential gearbox system, but should use the three pedals. Obviously, this concept car used a manual transmission system and its transmission lever is made by a wooden accents to give the retro impression.

In some parts, the concept car took the 918 Spyder design, especially on the use of exhaust silencer on the rear deck. In addition, the Porsche 908/04 Vision GT are also made shorter by the use of fender that maximally cover the wheel's circle and the impressive buttocks form to show aggressive side of this concept.

"We want to show the car's impression is 'forward' and really have a sporty soul. The idea is how to interpret a modern look of 1968 Porsche 908 LH model," the team said as quoted from AutoExpress. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | AUTOEXPRESS]
