Porsche ‘s bespoke Sonderwunsch program has unveiled its latest creation, a one-of-a-kind 911 S/T , finished in a specially developed color named “Dani Blue” — created for Kentucky-based Porsche enthusiast and horse breeder Jorge Carnicero.
The color Dani Blue was named in honor of Daniela Milošević , an expert color & trim designer at Porsche, who played a pivotal role in developing the shade. Inspired by the classic Enamel Blue of the 1964 Porsche 901, the color was meticulously refined to suit the modern 911 S/T. The result is a deep, vibrant blue that reflects Carnicero’s personal taste and the sporty character of the limited edition model.
A unique car for a unique designer.
At Monterey Car Week 2024 , Italian architect and industrial designer Luca Trazzi debuts a Porsche 911 Speedster uniquely crafted as a Sonderwunsch Factory One-Off. While this exceptional vehicle marks a one-of-a-kind addition to Porsche ’s legendary heritage, it symbolizes the brand’s commitment to individuality, craftsmanship, and the passionate vision of a true car lover.
Luca Trazzi — an architect, industrial designer, and Porsche enthusiast — has long admired the Speedster models that have been part of Porsche’s legacy since 1954. These cars are known for their distinctive open driving experience and dynamic performance, characterized by a shortened windshield and a sleek rear lid. However, Trazzi noticed a gap in his collection — a 911 Speedster from the Type 993 generation. With the help of Porsche’s Sonderwunsch program, he brought his dream to life, creating a one-of-a-kind 911 Speedster that reflects his personal vision.
The process of bringing Trazzi’s dream car to reality was labor-intensive, taking over three years of collaboration between Luca Trazzi and Porsche ’s Sonderwunsch experts. The result is a unique vehicle based on a 1994 911 Carrera Cabriolet (Type 993), extensively modified to meet Trazzi’s exacting standards. This bespoke Speedster is one of the highlights of Monterey Car Week 2024, showcasing what is possible when a customer’s vision meets Porsche’s craftsmanship.
Trazzi’s journey began with a visit to Porsche’s company archives, where he immersed himself in the history of the Speedster. Armed with a project book full of sketches and a clear idea of what he wanted, Trazzi worked closely with Porsche’s design team. Grant Larson, Director of Special Projects Design, highlighted the creative synergy between Trazzi and the Porsche team, noting how their shared design language led to a focused and innovative collaboration.
Throughout the project, Trazzi was deeply involved in every stage of the car’s development. He made multiple visits to Porsche, even witnessing his Speedster undergoing the cathodic dip-painting process at the factory paint shop. This level of involvement allowed Trazzi to ensure that every detail met his exacting standards, from the unique yellow paint color, named ‘Otto Yellow’ after his dog, to the thoughtfully-designed rear lid.
The 911 Speedster’s exterior features classic Speedster elements reinterpreted by Trazzi. The rear lid and windshield are bordered by a thin black frame, accentuating their sleek lines. The car’s 18-inch light alloy wheels, painted black with a yellow fineline, complement the vibrant Otto Yellow body. Inside, the car is a study in craftsmanship, with black leather upholstery, yellow decorative stitching, and a checkered pattern on the seat centers, all tailored by hand.
Under the hood, the 911 Speedster is equipped with components from the 911 Carrera RS (Type 993), including its powerful 3.8-liter air-cooled six-cylinder boxer engine. This engine was the most powerful of its kind in its time, generating 221 kW (300 PS). The car’s chassis, steering, and brake system also come from the Carrera RS, ensuring that this one-off Speedster offers not just style but also exceptional performance.
The creation of Luca Trazzi’s 911 Speedster is a prime example of what Porsche’s Sonderwunsch program can achieve. Reinterpreting its legendary customization program from the late 1970s, Porsche now offers customers the opportunity to co-design their dream car, which is then professionally realized by Porsche’s experts. The process involves close collaboration between the customer and Porsche’s design, engineering, and production teams, ensuring that the final product is a true reflection of the customer’s vision.

Stephen Chamberlain and the tech tycoon had faced charges of fraud and conspiracy but were acquitted by a US jury in June. He was involved in a collision with a car in Cambridgeshire on Saturday.

The family of Mike Lynch's co-defendant in a recent US fraud trial have paid tribute to a "much-loved husband, father, son" after it was confirmed he died following a road accident that occurred a couple of days before the British tech tycoon went missing.
Stephen Chamberlain, the former vice president of the finance company Autonomy, was hit by a car while out running in Cambridgeshire on Saturday morning, his lawyer said.
Mr Chamberlain had faced the same charges of fraud and conspiracy as his former boss Mr Lynch - one of six people reported missing after a luxury yacht was struck by an unexpectedly violent storm and sank off Sicily early on Monday.
He had been accused of allegedly scheming to inflate the value of Autonomy, then Britain's largest software firm, before it was sold to Hewlett-Packard (HP) in 2011.
In a statement released by Cambridgeshire Constabulary, his family said in a statement: "Steve was a much-loved husband, father, son, brother and friend.
"He was an amazing individual whose only goal in life was to help others in any way possible.
"He made a lasting impression on everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.
"He will be deeply missed but forever in the hearts of his loved ones."
Mr Chamberlain and Mr Lynch were acquitted of all 15 charges by a jury in the fraud case in San Francisco in June.
In a statement on Monday, Mr Chamberlain's lawyer, Gary Lincenberg, who described him as a "dear client and friend", said he had died after being "fatally struck" by a car while out running near Stretham.
At the weekend police in Cambridgeshire appealed for witnesses and information after a man in his 50s, from Longstanton, was taken to hospital with serious injuries.
The force said a blue Vauxhall Corsa was travelling between Stretham and Wicken on the A1123 when it collided with a pedestrian at about 10.10am in Newmarket Road. On Tuesday, it renewed its appeal.
The force added in a statement: "The driver of the car, a 49-year-old woman from Haddenham, remained at the scene and is assisting with enquiries."
Meanwhile, a search for Mr Lynch, 59, is still under way after a UK-flagged superyacht named Bayesian sank .
One person is dead and the British tech billionaire, who owned the 56-metre vessel (183ft), is one of six people missing, including several of others Mr Lynch has worked with.
Mr Lynch's 18-year-old daughter Hannah is among those missing after his yacht sank, local media reports, however his wife Angela Bacares is confirmed to be among the 15 people who were rescued after it capsized at about 4.30am local time (3.30am UK time) on Monday.

Mr Chamberlain worked as Autonomy's vice president of finance until he left in 2012 to work as chief operating officer for cybersecurity firm Darktrace, a firm founded by Invoke Capital, which itself was owned by Mr Lynch.

He also volunteered as a finance director for Cambridge United, according to his LinkedIn profile.
The sale of Autonomy was the biggest tech takeover of a FTSE 100 firm at the time - but HP wrote down £5.5bn of the company's value within a year, claiming revenue streams were inflated.
