The rarest Production Porsche. One of 13 made worldwide, one of two in right-hand drive and the only right-hand drive car in the UK. On offer here is quite simply the rarest production Porsche ever built and is a unique opportunity in this country. This 911 Club Coupé is one of just 13 cars built, one of two right-hand drive examples and the only car to be delivered to the UK (the other right-hand drive car went to Hong Kong). The Club Coupé is a unique model created to commemorate the 60th Anniversary of the first Porsche Club.
The first club specifically for Porsche owners was originally known as the Westfalischer Porsche Club Hohensyburg and was set up in May 1952, just four years after the first 356 rolled off the production line, by a group of enthusiasts. There were 13 original members and consequently it seemed appropriate to build the same number of cars out of respect to those early owners who were so excited about their new cars that they got together to share their enthusiasm, little knowing what they had started. Of the 13 cars, only 12 were available for sale as Porsche themselves decided to keep one to be displayed at the Porsche Museum.
Porsche regularly display their own example and it was recently presented at the launch of the 992.2 in Spain. Revered by Porsche collectors, over 50% have been retained by their original owners and Porsche have run rallies specifically for those select few owners. A film on YouTube,. 'Rallye 911 Club Coupe La passion continue' , will show what lies ahead for the purchaser. To make the ordering process for the remaining 12 a little fairer, the company ran a lottery system which was opened on 16th June 2012, with each of the 12 lucky winners having their name engraved on a switch-panel trim strip. They were handed over at a dinner in Stuttgart hosted by Wolfgang Porsche.
The Museum printed a limited run of 250 books dedicated to the story and documenting the build process, a copy of which will accompany the car. The stunning paint finish was described as Brewster Green and the vendor later ordered a new 911GTS to match for daily use. When parked next to each other, it was clear that the Club Coupé was a completely different colour. Further research with the Factory revealed that it was known internally as 'Family Green', a colour reserved exclusively for Porsche family members and as worn by Wolfgang Porsche's personal 993 Turbo S which is displayed at the Porsche Museum.
A shade not offered nor available anywhere else adding to the car's unrepeatable exclusivity. Mileage at the time of cataloguing was around 8,000 in the hands of its four previous owners and the car has been well maintained by Porsche main dealers in recent years as you might expect with such a special 911. It was last serviced at Porsche Reading with details on file. The specification is impressive and includes: 7-speed automatic PDK transmission. X51 Carrera Powerkit, Porsche carbon ceramic brakes. Bespoke Porsche Family Green paintwork with an Espresso Natural Leather interior. SportDesign package, Sport chrono, Sports exhaust, Sport techno alloy wheels painted body colour.
Electric sliding sunroof, unique illuminated door sills, PASM Sports suspension. Sports seats, BOSE sound system, ParkAssist front and rear, PCM with Bluetooth, LED headlights with PDLS, heated seats. TPMS, cruise-control, electric mirrors, brushed aluminium interior package, centre console in leather. This is an unrepeatable opportunity to purchase the rarest Porsche production car ever built, in a colour never publicly offered before and to join the exclusive club of 911 Club Coupé ownership.
