Porsche Design, the Stuttgart firm’s lifestyle brand, is marking its 50th Anniversary this year and to celebrate, a very special and rare Porsche 911 Edition 50Y Porsche Design is being offered to customers, including South Africa.
Keen to own a rare Porsche 911 Edition 50Y Porsche Design? Well, you’d better make your intentions known as only 750 units will be built for customers worldwide.
The Porsche 911 Targa 4 GTS serves as the base for this creation and draws inspiration from the 1972 Porsche 911 S 2.4 Targa (restored by Porsche Classic), the same year Porsche Design was established.
More so, the 2 cars share the same colour scheme based on the legendary Chronograph 1 watch designed by Professor Ferdinand Alexander Porsche in 1972. The interior and exterior is therefore dominated by a black colour scheme.
Only 750 units of this Porsche 911 Edition 50 Years Porsche Design will be produced worldwide.
The Porsche 911 Edition 50Y Porsche Design features a Satin Platinum Targa bar and Porsche Design logos and badging makes it clear that is no ordinary 911 Targa.
Inside, the Black and Cool Grey Sport-Tex seats (18-way adjustable) are finished in a classic checkered pattern while the headrests feature a 50 Years Porsche Design logo. Other special details include a silver plaque mounted on the dashboard highlighting the vehicle’s production number and the centre console lid features Ferdinand Alexander Porsche’s signature. The Porsche Design Subsecond Clock also features a red second hand and the seatbelts and centre mark on the steering wheel are finished in slate grey.
The Porsche 911 Edition 50Y Porsche Design is powered by the firm’s familiar flat-six 3.0-litre twin-turbocharged engine producing 352 kW and 569 Nm of torque. An 8-speed dual-clutch transmission is offered as standard but customers can also opt for a 7-speed manual shifter at no additional cost.
If that’s not enough, each car will also come with a Chronograph 1 – 911 50 Years of Porsche Design watch and fans of the brand can also purchase a Chronograph 1 -1972 Limited Edition of which only 500 units will be made.
Porsche will also be hosting a special anniversary exhibition at the Porsche Museum as of 19 January 2022.
How much will the Porsche 911 Edition 50Y Porsche Design cost in South Africa?
Porsche 911 Edition 50Y Porsche Design – R2 949 000
The Porsche 911 Edition 50Y Porsche Design will be sold with a 3-year/100 000 km Driveplan.
