Porsche to keep making 911 special editions, sky to remain blue.
, Porsche chairman Oliver Blume—who as of September is also the chair of the Volkswagen Group—said that more 911 variants are under consideration. Porsche has already paid tribute to its fifties and sixties cars with the 911 Targa Heritage Design Edition and Sport Classic, respectively, and Blume said seventies- and eighties-homage models are possible as well.
"Very few global brands are able to bring these successful items from the past and connect them with modern technology. But Porsche can," Blume said."Then we thought 'Why not a third pillar, besides sporty GT and heritage models? Why not off-road, too?' Now we will see how the market success of the Dakar pans out. And then maybe there will be more to come.
Given the Porsche and the 911's current popularity, it's hard to see any special-edition variant failing. There are just too many out there who want the latest and greatest rear-engine sports car.
