This new video from Porsche catches up with the company’s Design Manager, Tony Hatter, who explains how iconic design elements first seen on the original 911 can be found in the new 50 Years Edition.
Based on the 294 kW (400 hp) Carrera S, but wearing the wider body of the all-wheel drive Carrera 4 model, the celebratory variant features Fuchs-inspired 20-inch alloy wheels, high-gloss window frames and SportDesign mirrors, the Porsche Dynamic Light System, chrome trim strips on the front air inlets, engine compartment grille and between the rear lights.
The interior gains green labelling on the instruments and white needles with silver caps on the instrument pivot pins, while the material on the seat’s centre section evokes the ‘Pepita’ tartan design seen on 1960s 911s.
