Porsche 911 S/T, Metallic Violet

Porsche built the 911 S/T for the 911's 60th anniversary in 2023 and limited it to 1,963 cars, a number chosen for 1963, the year the 911 made its debut. Buyers could add a Heritage Design Package that recreates the character of the early cars in the bodywork and the cabin, with Shore Blue Metallic paint. Black and White were the standard colours, with Ruby Star Neo, Gentian Blue Metallic, Shade Green Metallic, GT Silver Metallic and Ice Grey Metallic offered as options, and Paint to Sample open to anyone who wanted something else. Inside, the door handles, sill guards and trim strips are carbon fibre reinforced plastic, and there are no rear seats.

This one is painted a rich metallic violet, with black PORSCHE lettering low on the doors and gloss black centre-lock wheels over purple calipers. There is no fixed wing: the tail keeps the slim retractable spoiler of the S/T, with the grilled engine cover above it and the full-width light bar below. The light strip in the front bumper glows, and twin exhausts sit in the dark diffuser. The white leather base has red stitching and a black plaque. IVY builds it at 1:18.
