Perhaps the German automaker did not refuse the concept of Le Mans Living Legends, because images of the new "super secret" sports car appeared on the network.
In November last year, Porsche introduced several ever previously presented concept car, including the road version 919 Hybrid and Le Mans Living Legend, the concept based on Porsche 718 Boxster, created in 2016.
Although a sports car with something reminded 911 Speedster, especially in the profile, he was distinguished by the doors of the type "scissors" and the retractable back cover, behind which was the engine. Especially interesting retro stroke were round headlights - direct hint on the classic 550 coupe, although the rear lights acquired a more modern view due to the LED strip in full width. It was reasonable to believe that this concept would never come into life, but perhaps the plans have changed.
Judging by the patent images found at Taycan EV Forum, Porsche filed an application to Euipo to a new model, which is very similar to this concept. Only this time the sports car received sports doors of the "Seagull Wing" type. In addition, there is a separated rear window, round headlights, a double exhaust system, as well as a row of holes right outside the door, which originally covered the panel.
A patent application is dated by this month, so it is unlikely that it will be able to stay unexplored. But why Porsche feed a patent, whose validity expires only in February 2026, right now? Because the current generation of 718 Boxster and Cayman, internally referred to as 982, was launched back in 2016. It may seem that this happened not so long ago, but the predecessor of the 981th generation pair had only five-year service life. The countdown for generation 982 may have already begun.
According to rumors, the next generation of a duet with an average engine location will use a fully electrical power plant, so it is possible that Porsche plans several special models within the framework of the grand wires. The car, which is depicted on patents, can be one of them. If the serial version is really planned, it is likely to be very limited and quite expensive.
