If you don't recall, one of the most jaw-droppingly gorgeous Porsche 911s created is dubbed the Sport Classic. Meant to resemble the old-school, 1973 2.7 RS "Ducktail" while blending modern craftsmanship and sophistication, this very well could be the ultimate expression of the 911.
This car is about the details. Said to have taken three years of development by Porsche Exclusive, there are many bespoke elements about this particular 911 that make it stand apart from your ordinary 911.
The icing on the cake for this car? Only 250 were built for the European market. How this vehicle made it here is a bit of a cloudy mystery to me at this point. All I know is that it must not of been cheap and likely it is one of few -- if not the only -- Sport Classic bound for the States. That's because it doesn't even pass safety standards.
Three cheers for the individual that brought the Sport Classic here!

A truly unique moment for such a unique and well crafted vehicle...
