The Porsche Panamericana is a concept car that Porsche AG produced, designed by the Dutchman Harm Lagaay with Steve Murkett and technical director Ulrich Bez to preview the design of the forthcoming 993 generation of the 911. It was also built as a gift for Ferry Porsche on his 80th birthday, and the name comes from the Carrera Panamericana race of the 1950s. It was presented at the 1989 Frankfurt Motor Show after six months of development, on the chassis of a 911 (964) Carrera 4 cabriolet, with plastic and carbon fiber panels. Lagaay hoped for a small series in 1992, but Porsche financial crisis ended that, though the car influenced the 993 Targa and the Boxster.
