Porsche Classic Project Gold

04/9/2018

Porsche Classic has built the last 911 Turbo with an air-cooled engine - 20 years after the end of series production. Based on an original 993 bodyshell, the vehicle’s appearance is just as exceptional as its history: painted in Golden Yellow Metallic, it uniquely references the 2018 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series.

Construction of the unique vehicle took approximately one and a half years. The vehicle was assembled and tuned by Porsche Classic specialists at the Porsche restoration workshop in Stuttgart. A brand new 3.6-litre twin-turbo flat-six engine developing 450 hp was installed, which delivers the same performance the 911 Turbo S originally had when it was in production.

The hand-stamped chassis number follows the last series-production model of the 993 Turbo which rolled off the production line in 1998. The exterior and interior elements were coordinated with the workshop’s dedicated Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur experts who were responsible for creating the 2018 911 Turbo S Exclusive series, which was limited to 500 units worldwide.

The car will be revealed to the public on 27 September before being auctioned off by RM Sotheby’s, with the proceeds to be donated to the Ferry Porsche Foundation, a non-profit organisation established this year to mark the 70 years of Porsche celebrations.
