Bulletproof Porsche 911 (996) made by Porsche

Bulletproof Porsche 911 made by Porsche instead of a third party

A while ago"Ferrari 458 Speciale that can be shot with Magnum bulletsI have written about this on my blog.

However, the bulletproof Ferrari 458 Speciale introduced at this time was that a shop that was not Ferrari changed Ferrari to bulletproof.

However, this 996 type Porsche 911 is a Porsche official bulletproof specification 911 that Porsche received an order from a customer and "Porsche made it at the Porsche factory"! !!

This 996 type, Porsche 911 armored car of Mr. Tear eyes, which was made as a one-off model at the request of customers in the mid-1990s.

Currently, it is exhibited at the Porsche Museum in Germany.

The body color of this 911 is Dragon Fly Turquoise Metallic. Dragonfly is a dragonfly, isn't it? What is a turquoise dragonfly? When I searched for it, I found a very beautiful turquoise dragonfly. I didn't know ~ ^^

Bringing a body color from a dragonfly with such a beautiful color is really sharp. No, it's Porsche, not Sharp.

So, after getting off the production line of this very beautiful Dragonfly Turquoise Metallic 996, I installed a 20mm thick tempered glass made exclusively for this car.

The interior of the 996, which is surrounded by these 20mm bulletproof glass, seems to be very quiet. I think it feels like I've experienced noise canceling for the first time.

And it seems that the interior of the car is the same as the normal specifications, and it is equipped with a high-end surround system, seat heater and cruise control.

You can spend an elegant time in the car protected from bullets ^ ^

The body uses a material called Dyneema. Although it weighs the same as steel, it is about 15 times stronger than that.

It seems that Porsche's commitment is to "make it obscure from the outside" that it uses bulletproof glass and Dyneema like this, and if you look at it normally, it is a little normal color. It's just a rare 996 type Porsche 911.

Is this Porsche 911 Carrera really strong?

Well, and I understand that Porsche tried to make an armored Porsche, but is this really strong? From that point of view, Porsche says that Porsche has been properly tested there, and it is said that it can withstand 9 mm pistols and .44 Magnum revolver bullets in most places of 911.

The only problem (no, I don't think it's a problem because it's armored anymore) is that the weight of the car is getting heavier.

Well, I'm sure Porsche was officially made, so it may have been unacceptable for the weight of the car to become heavy.

The normal 996 Carrera weighs 1,317 kg, while this special 996 weighs 2,722 kg. Yeah, it's a little (no, quite) heavy.

The weight is quite heavy, but the engine is the same 3.4 liter horizontally opposed 6-cylinder engine as the original, 300 horsepower & 350 Nm torque.

So ... this996 type "fried egg" Porsche 911However, it seems that it is the first and last bulletproof (armored) Porsche 911 made by Porsche, so why did Porsche make only this one bulletproof 911? I'm curious.

The answer is ...

"If you make this, the cost is extremely high, but there was not much demand."

That's right (laughs).

Well, it may not be made anymore ~ ^ ^ Really, Porsche is cute.
