Prototype cars are built to disappear. They are tested, hidden, and erased from history. Yet these ones survived. In this video, we reveal 7 real prototype cars that accidentally escaped destruction — machines that were never sold, never registered, and never meant to be seen by the public. Some were officially ordered to be destroyed. Others escaped factory control without explanation. And one of them exposes a version of automotive history manufacturers would rather forget. These are not concepts or rumors. They are real cars that should not exist.

About Porsche 984

The Porsche 984 Junior (Also known as the 984) was a 2-door roadster concept from the German automobile manufacturer Porsche, that was in development between 1984 and 1987. It was designed to be a small, affordable and fuel-efficient sports car similar to the Porsche 924, albeit with a lower sales price. It was conceptualized in cooperation with Spanish automaker SEAT, although Porsche eventually pressed forward with development on their own.
