As part of its Heritage Design strategy, Porsche has created the 911 Spirit 70—bringing back the spirit of the ’70s, as the name suggests.

This 911 (which is based on the 992.2-generation 911 Carrera GTS Cabriolet) is finished in the exclusive color Olive Neo. Providing contrast to the deep green paint is Bronzite, a gray-gold finish seen on the front and lower rear sections. The Fuchs-design Classic wheels are also finished in Bronzite.

The most obvious detail is the big 911 pattern in black silk gloss on the frunk—safety graphics from the ’70s intended to make these sports cars more visible on the rear-view mirror on the highway or on the track. The sides, meanwhile, have Porsche lettering and a number roundel also in black silk gloss, and a start number.

Mixing then and now is a Porsche crest identical to the historic crest from 1963. Other details for this 911 are gold Porsche lettering and model designation at the rear (which have a galvanized gold-plated surface), gold “Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur” badges on the front fenders, and a Porsche Heritage badge on the engine cover—its design reminiscent of the badge on the Porsche 356, awarded in the 1950s when the 100,000km mark was achieved.

The inside, however, is where you’ll feel the spirit of the ’70s the strongest. The center panel of the sports seats, and the inside of the glove compartment are covered in black/Olive Neo Pasha—a fabric pattern that originated in the Porsche 928, bearing resemblance to a waving checkered flag.

The club leather trim in basalt black with matching Olive Neo stitching, and the basalt black club leather interior package come standard, as well as a reversible boot mat in Pasha. In addition, the decorative inlays on the seat backrests and the dashboard trim are also available in Pasha as an option.

Other details that bring back the past are an instrument cluster with a historic design—the high-resolution 12.65-inch display sports white needles, scale lines in analog format, and green numbers similar to the 356 (the same treatment also executed for the Sport Chrono stopwatch).

The 911 Spirit 70 is limited to 1,500 units. It is expected to arrive at dealerships around Europe this month, with other markets to follow. The car comes with a chronograph created by Porsche Design, with black Pasha pattern on the dial inspired by the seat center panels.

Referred to as the Icons of Cool, the 911 Spirit 70 is the third Heritage Design limited-edition model. This 911 cabriolet represents the disco days of the 1970s and the early 1980s. The second was the 911 Sport Classic presented in 2022, reviving the style of the 1960s and the early 1970s. The first was the 911 Targa 4S Heritage Design Edition presented in 2020, harking back to the style of the 1950s and the early 1960s.

“The Heritage Design models occupy a special position within our product strategy from a design perspective,” shared Style Porsche vice president Michael Mauer. “The limited-edition sports cars visualize what makes the Porsche brand so special. Every design of our vehicles ties in with our history; these vehicles go one step further. They show how we interpret historical design elements in a state-of-the-art sports car.”

“The limited-edition collector’s items are particularly desirable for our customers worldwide,” said Individualization and Classic vice president Alexander Fabig. “The first two models in the Heritage Design strategy have brought back the lifestyle of past decades, and generated a great deal of enthusiasm. We are delighted with this success, and are now proud to present the third, highly exclusive model.”
