Porsche Cars Australia chose a landmark anniversary to create something that could only exist in this place. Seventy-five years after the brand first reached Australian shores in 1951, the company worked with its Sonderwunsch team, Style Porsche designers, and Sydney artist Werner Bronkhorst to produce a single 911 Turbo S. They named it the Land Down Under.
Craftsmen worked tirelessly for almost 300 hours to add seven coats of hand-painted paint. Two different Chromaflair colors, not found on any other Porsche, were employed here. The lower part of the car is painted ‘Terra Australis Red,’ with ‘Southern Cross Blue’ taking over from the shoulder line up. Tiny, reflective paint flakes inside the paint provide a new dimension to the finish, giving the appearance that the automobile is changing color in front of your eyes, as it can be desert orange, dusk blue, eucalyptus green, or even dawn gold depending on the angle of the light and time of day. The matching Southern Cross Blue wheel design is sleek to say the least, with the 20-inch front and 21-inch rear Turbo Exclusive wheels sporting this distinctive finish.

A ghosting method was used on the roof to give the number ’75’ in Bronkhorst’s own handwriting a sense of subtlety, as it is only visible under certain lighting conditions. Another statement appears just below the rear spoiler. This time, it reads ‘See you later, mate,’ in the same font as the car number. The words are hidden until the driver selects Sport Plus mode or the automatic wing appears at speeds exceeding 80 km/h. Bronkhorst’s little hand-painted designs can be found throughout the body. Some depict Australian wildlife, while others show typical landscape scenes.
Inside the cabin, there is the same painstaking attention to detail. The Dark Nite Blue leather has been combined with a special ‘Coolibah Brown’ that was produced specifically for this vehicle. The contrast is made with Neodyme and Kalahari accents. The dashboard and rear seat backs will also have Australian Silky Oak wood inlays. The dashboard and door panels also include a series of geographical contour lines that represent the Blue Mountains. The roof liner has an embroidered map of the Southern Hemisphere constellations, making it feel like you’re looking up at the sky over Uluru in 1951, when Porsche first landed in Australia.
The front seats are eighteen-way Adaptive Sports Seats Plus with a distinctive paintbrush-style perforation pattern made up of 14,417 individual holes. It’s reminiscent of Bronkhorst’s brushwork, which is very fantastic. The 75th anniversary is marked on the headrests by embroidery and embossed logos. The steering wheel is covered in the same leathers and finishes as the seats and features a Kalahari marker at the 12-o’clock position.
At its core, the vehicle is still built on the normal 992-generation 911 Turbo S. The twin-turbo flat-six engine produces 523 kW and 800 Nm of torque. With the Sport Chrono Package, it accelerates from zero to 100 kilometers per hour in 2.5 seconds. If you’re interested, the maximum speed is 322 km/h. There were no changes to the powertrain. Porsche Cars Australia debuted the finished car at a special ceremony in August 2026, following a photoshoot in the outback. The car will make appearances at a few select spots across the country before going up for sale in 2027, but that’s it, as there is only one of these cars in existence anywhere.
