The automotive world is buzzing with excitement over a one-of-a-kind Porsche 911 Turbo S, configured through Porsche’s elite Sonderwunsch program. This model stands out not just for its performance but for its jaw-droppingly expensive and intricate paint job.
A Unique Homage
This 911 Turbo S is more than just a car; it is an homage to one of the four Porsche 959s built for a special customer in the late 1980s. The brainchild behind this magnificent beast is Guglielmo Miani, head of the Italian luxury brand Larusmiani. This Porsche exemplifies the pinnacle of automotive customization and is arguably one of the priciest 911 Turbo S models ever created.
A Paint Job Like No Other
The car's Urban Bamboo color is the highlight of its aesthetic appeal. This is one of the five ‘Chromaflair’ colors offered by Porsche, all of which cap six-figure price tags. The Urban Bamboo hue is applied through a meticulous process involving no fewer than five coats of paint. Each layer includes wafer-thin pigments that shift color depending on the viewing angle and lighting, making the car a dynamic visual experience.
The other specialized Chromaflair colors available include Python Green, Magic Magenta, Shifting Carbon, and Explosive Gold. Unique to this model, even the wheels have been painted to match the eye-catching Urban Bamboo body, adding an extra layer of allure.
Interior Excellence
Inside, the 911 Turbo S continues to stun. The cabin is adorned in plush leather available in three distinct colors: Rock Green metallic, Jet Green Metallic, and Anthracite Brown Metallic. These shades are elegantly integrated across the seats, door panels, and other leather surfaces. It's a harmonious blend that ties the exterior and interior aesthetics together perfectly.
Attention to Detail
Porsche's attention to detail is what truly sets this model apart. A tri-color line that features Rock Green metallic, Jet Green Metallic, and Anthracite Brown Metallic runs along the car's shoulders. This same theme is carried into the interior, creating a seamless flow from the outside in. Remarkably, there are almost 50 unique touches ordered through the Sonderwunsch program, making this one of the most personalized Porsches on the road.
While Porsche hasn't disclosed the exact price that Miani paid for this masterpiece, it is safe to assume the costs are astronomical. With such a prestigious and customized build, questions are already arising about whether the new owner will keep this gem in a garage or actually drive it. Given the extraordinary levels of customization, it would almost be a crime not to let the world see it in motion.
For the Love of Porsche
The Urban Bamboo Porsche 911 Turbo S is a testament to what can be achieved when passion meets craftsmanship. From its unique $100K paint job to its luxuriously customized interior, every aspect of this car screams exclusivity and individuality. It is a rolling piece of art that pays homage to Porsche's storied history while pushing the boundaries of what's possible in automotive design.
