stuttgart’s porsche museum is a paradise of luxury vehicles, teeming with more than 80 of the brand’s most famous, iconic cars on permanent exhibit; but behind the scenes, a secret warehouse on site hides an archive of special-edition, priceless models from porsche’s past. in a rare trip behind these closed doors, german photographer steffen jahn documents the premises and precious cars concealed there, including examples of some of porsche’s most prized treasures. stacked in protective cases and arranged in rows, everything from limited-edition racing cars to vintage recreational vehicles are stored and secured — a rare spectacle for casual drivers and car enthusiasts alike. take a look at the photos below for a peek inside.
