1991 Porsche 911 Carrera Safari
The Safari 911 has roots in the East African Safari Rally, a 3,000-mile torture test across the savannahs, highlands, and river crossings of Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania that Porsche entered with factory-built 911s in the 1970s. This 964 Carrera 4 is built in that spirit. Originally a cabriolet, it was transformed into a full Safari-spec coupe with wide bodywork featuring louvered carbon fiber fenders, a roof scoop, and a whale-tail spoiler, with a 4130 chromoly tube frame grafted onto the seam-welded factory tub. Rally hardware includes steel bumper guards, an integrated light pod, skid plates, and rock guards along the rockers. Under the rear lid, a 3.8-liter flat-six with custom internals, individual throttle bodies, and a MoTeC ECU routes power through a 996 Turbo-sourced six-speed manual to all four wheels, while three-way adjustable Elka Stage 5 coilovers with Eibach springs deliver 12 inches of front and 14 inches of rear travel. Olive leather and black quilted Alcantara bucket seats, chromoly roll cage, and MoTeC C127 digital display complete the package. Built to drive the Serengeti plains and cross the Mara River.
