On June 18, 2026, Porsche Japan began accepting pre-orders for the Japan-exclusive model “911 GT3 Artisan Edition,” commemorating the company’s 30th anniversary. It is sold in a limited run of 30 units.

The Porsche 911 GT3 Artisan Edition is the first Japan-exclusive model specially crafted by Porsche Exclusive Manufacture, based on the philosophy that “true luxury lies in the details.” The introduction was announced on April 27, 2026 (see reference). It fuses Porsche’s proud mechanical engineering with the essence of traditional Japanese crafts such as “Edo Kiriko” and “Indigo Dyeing.” It is introduced as a unique model that connects two outstanding worlds: mechanical engineering and artisanal craftsmanship.

The engine is a 4-liter naturally aspirated horizontally opposed six-cylinder, producing a maximum output of 510PS and peak torque of 450N·m. A Mantai kit is also included, which includes a 4-way adjustable coilover suspension and stainless steel mesh brake lines. Its setup is based on decades of racing experience in Flacht and Moishpat.

The design concept is inspired by traditional Japanese crafts of Edo kiriko and indigo dyeing, with an exterior primarily white and finished with club blue paint-to-sample finishes. On the body sides, blue accents inspired by ‘Japan Blue,’ which is deeply connected to indigo dyeing, were also added.

The front fender and left rear side feature the “GT3” logo, reminiscent of the late Type 997 “911 GT3 RS.” Both B-pillars bear the “GT3 Artisan Edition” badge and the “Club Blue (Satengros)” “GT3” model logo.

The front wheels are painted high-gloss white, and the rear wheels are painted satengloss club blue. The Mantai carbon aero disc on the rear wheel features a design inspired by Edo Kiriko. It features integrated gurney flaps and large white-finished end plates, and is equipped with a Mantai carbon rear wing handwritten with “Engineered in Flacht, Sharpened in Meuspath, Built for Japan.”

The interior, which follows the exterior theme, is also considered a selling point of this model. The upholstery of the seats and trims made of black leather and Race Tex features two-tone stitching in white and speed blue, while the illuminated Silgard made of brushed black aluminum features the “GT3 Artisan Edition” logo.

The sports bucket seat, featuring a newly developed textile in the center of the seat and a gradient from white to club blue, is an exclusive item for this model. The headrests feature a white “GT3” logo and speed blue Edo Kiriko embroidery.

Standard equipment includes the “Weisach Package,” which includes lightweight carbon door panels with grab handles, storage nets, and a black race-tex finish on the dashboard top. It also comes with a ceramic-finished steel roll cage, a race-tex-finished “GT steering wheel,” and a white “GT3” Plates with logos are also eye-catching points in interior design.

The same world is embodied in accessories such as the Racetex wallet and key pouch stitched in white and Speed Blue by the Porsche Exclusive Manufacture, and the white vehicle key that reflects the exterior graphics.

The 911 GT3 Artison Edition is only available with a 6-speed manual transmission, priced at 53.57 million yen.
