Porsche just posted this video on YouTube of their 5 "most memorable" Exclusive models....the fifth is one to be released later this year.

It's about 1min 50 secs in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gSEFX5i6DBo

Its got the "double bubble" roof and looks nearly the size of a Cayenne!

Nice find, Cheib.

This corroborates what I heard the other day, if so, there'll be 3 variants.

The gents who posted earlier clearly had had the nod on something like a 911 Turbo that's coming. Not sure when 992 (or whatever the 991's replacement is) but presumably Porsche Exclusive will be doing something like a 997 Sport Classic as a run out car ? That said whatver is under that dust sheet is very different in size/stance from a 911. This test mule looks kind of similar in bulk although obviously if it is the size of a Panamera that would mean it's not a 911.

I heard from a good Porsche source, of a limited edition of 991.2 using the 3.0t motor, in three flavours linked to three VIPs in motorsport. These cars will use parts already in circulation – i.e. nothing that is really new so not a 992 or GT2. Just the sort of job for Porsche Exclusive.

Within days, Cheib posted the PE youtube video and I thought, ah-ha, this must be linked to what I had head.

However, by chance, I then attended an event at which one of the motorsport VIPs who is associated with this project was present. So I thought I’d ask about the project, half-expecting the brush-off. But no, they were happy to talk at length! One thing that they said was that the edition would be UK only and because of this, and presuming that they are right, I now don’t think that the PE video is to do with this edition as this video is aimed at a worldwide audience.

I think Woollyjoe is correct in that the car under the sheet is fiction. And I think Cheib is right in that that there will be 991 run-out specials.

Of course it may be one of the following which Porsche announced last month, neither of which show on the configurator, but then again, these don't appear to be worthy of the Number One spot:

The 911 Targa 4S Exclusive Design Edition is also available in Aetna Blue and with a Graphite Blue interior.
For the 911 Turbo and 911 Turbo S, customers can choose a Saffron Yellow Metallic exterior

Turbo LE would make sense especially as it's almost 25 years after last one.

Regarding an announcement at "Highclere"- no idea what this means.
It's a castle with a bit of history.

The Turbo LE may be announced in June but the green car in the new video is not wearing a Turbo bumper.

I'm sure the car in the video is not a Turbo and is either a Carrera 2/4 or possibly a Cayman; look at the angle of the diagonal strut separating the centre aperture from the right-hand outer aperture.

Lord knows what the green car is but I know I want it but won't get an allocation.

Good work!

My guess is on a Sport Classic or Speedster given it's the Exclusive Dept.
