Of course, there is plenty more to the company's history, with cars like the 924, 928, 944, and, latterly, the Cayenne and the Taycan EV.This year is an important one for the company, as it is celebrating its 75th anniversary in the United Kingdom. Not wanting to let an anniversary slip, Porsche has decided to mark the occasion with a special model based on the 911 GT3.This is the Porsche 911 GT3 Earls Court 51 Edition, with its public reveal at the Silverstone Grand Prix Circuit over the weekend of June 20th and 21st. The car was shown alongside a recommissioned example of the 1951 Porsche 356 Coupe, finished in the same color as the new celebration model.AdvertisementAdvertisementAs the name suggests, just 51 examples of the car will be built, and all are for the UK market. So if you want to get your hands on one, you need to live in the UK and also move quickly before they are all snapped up!What Makes the Porsche 911 GT3 Earls Court Edition So Special?Image Credit: PorscheThe biggest standout from the new Porsche is the color, which properly pays homage to the United Kingdom. The car is finished in a stunning Earls Court Green Metallic, and the Porsche 356 coupe that was recently recommissioned was also finished in the same livery.The car was developed by Porsche Cars Great Britain, with the Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur team from Stuttgart, Germany, helping out in its design. Four goals were laid out for the new car. These were a link to the original 356, a focus on driver engagement, to celebrate the heritage of the Earls Court Motor Show, and to have the design align with the 1956 356 coupe.Image Credit: PorschePorsche chose the 911 GT3 Touring Package as the base for the car, and even color-matched it perfectly to the 356 coupes shown at the 1951 Earls Court Motor Show, which also played a part in the name of the new special edition. The car was unveiled at the Icons of Porsche, Sunstede Silverstone Edition event, with it presented alongside the restored 356 coupe.How Much Will This Special Edition Porsche Cost?Image Credit: PorschePorsche will build just 51 examples of this special edition.
