Transcript
00:00Welcome to the atmosphere of 1970s, welcome to the emotion, welcome to Porsche and welcome to the presentation of the 911 Spirit 70.
00:30Let's have a look at the real car and all the details.
00:52The heritage design strategy was made to bring back the rich history of Porsche.
00:57The most emotional cars come from the racetrack, but we wanted to set a new perspective from Porsche.
01:04We have the design-oriented cars that were made in our design studio in Weissach called the Heritage Design Models.
01:10And it's all about emotion, colors, materials, but also celebrating the eras that they stand for, the music, the movies, the artists,
01:20everything that creates goosebumps for our Porsche customers, but also fans and enthusiasts.
01:26And you're all familiar that this is not the first car.
01:29This is actually the third heritage design model out of a row of four.
01:33All cars with an even number, as you see here, the 70 other limited series cars.
01:39But we also had the uneven numbers on the doors that were the packages.
01:43We had 48 already, 63 and 74.
01:46This is now the fact that this is made of a collector story.
01:51As I said, it is all about emotion, but also about the technical details.
01:57We always combine the most modern drivetrain with some flavor of the past.
02:03So the 911 Spirit 70 is based on the GTS, the latest T-Hybrid technology, and that is purely driving pleasure while having the spirit of the 70s.
02:16As I said, we wanted to talk about design.
02:18And there's no better colleague than Thorsten Klein to welcome him here to support me with explaining all the details about the car.
02:26To start with, this car never wanted to be shy or decent.
02:35So we created two new colors.
02:37One is the olive neo, a new interpretation of the olive green from the 70s.
02:41And you have a new accent color, which is the bronzite that you can find on the Fuchs rims and on the front accents and back accents of the car.
02:49But the 70s were very vibrant and loud.
02:52We really wanted to do something with strong graphics.
02:55And so I identified the safety graphics of the 70s as an iconic theme that I really wanted to do in reinterpretation.
03:04So the 911 logo that continues in stripes and we actually even have them on the roof of this convertible top.
03:11And the most contrast, I have to say, that we were able to bring back is the interior.
03:17So we brought Pasha back.
03:19Pasha is the reinterpretation of a start and finish line flag.
03:24It's a theme for motorsport.
03:26So it shows a lot of motion and emotion.
03:29But the old version of Pasha for me was always something that's very cozy and comforting.
03:34So you feel very well sitting in this car.
03:37And the new interpretation that we did for the 992 is as good as it gets.
03:42This heritage interior is accompanied by the heritage Porsche crests.
03:47We have the gold plated limitation badge.
03:49And on top of that, we have a lot of additional leather options.
03:52We have contrast stitching with the basalt black club leather interior.
03:57Everything else is toned down.
03:59So Pasha is the superstar.
04:01Coming from its beautiful Pasha interior, we have the safety stripes returning on the cabriolet top.
04:10We have the newest version of the heritage grill badge in the seventies colors.
04:15We have the beautiful gold plated logos and emblems.
04:18And here where the music is, we not only have the titanium exhaust tips,
04:23but more of the bronzite contrast colors.
04:29As we do not only think in the dimension of the car and its appearance,
04:33but about the perfect fit into the lifestyle of our customers,
04:37we have the matching child seats.
04:39We have other accessories like the Porsche design timepieces
04:42and the great lifestyle collection as well.
04:48This is it for now. I hope you enjoyed it.

04:57And stay tuned for the eighties.
