The Porsche 911 Dakar is no stranger to stealing the spotlight, but every so often, a car comes along that redefines what “special” really means. This one-off creation, commissioned by an Italian collector, takes the rugged charm of the 911 Dakar and elevates it to an entirely new level of exclusivity.

Crafted by Porsche’s Sonderwunsch department, it blends bespoke artistry with the thrill of a high-riding sports car, proving that even icons can have a bespoke touch.

Finished in a custom Rallye Design Package, this unique Porsche 911 Dakar wears a striking three-tone paint job of Signal Yellow, Gentian Blue Metallic, and a fresh shade called Lampedusa Blue, inspired by the Italian island. 

The wheels? The wheels showcase a playful finish, painted in Signal Yellow with Lampedusa Blue accents. Meanwhile, the LED headlights feature blue accent rings for a perfect match.

Inside, the vibrant theme continues with Signal Yellow stitching lining the dashboard, center console, and door panels. The 911 Dakar logo is proudly embroidered on the headrests of the Sports Seats Plus in the same signature yellow, while a subtle splash of the color adorns the shifter for good measure.

Underneath the custom exterior beats the same heart that powers every 911 Dakar—a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter flat-six pumping out 475 horsepower. Paired with an eight-speed PDK gearbox and all-wheel drive, it rockets from 0-60 mph in just 3.4 seconds, ensuring this bespoke beauty performs as brilliantly as it looks.

Porsche’s team worked hand-in-hand with the collector, crafting every detail with painstaking precision. The entire livery was hand-painted, a labor of love that makes this car a true work of art. The Porsche Museum in Germany will showcase this Porsche 911 Dakar masterpiece before it heads to its new home in Italy, providing enthusiasts with a rare opportunity to appreciate it up close.

Since every 911 Dakar has already been reserved, this one-of-a-kind model is a stunning goodbye to a car that pushed the limits of luxury and speed.
