What makes this 1997 Porsche 911 Remastered truly special is not only its iconic Gunther Werks creation status but also its “as-new” condition, boasting less than 50 miles (80 km) on the odometer. Among the most extensively enhanced Porsche 911s ever produced, it represents one of only 25 examples restored and remastered by Gunther Werks.

Dubbed the “Carbon Noire Commission,” this particular car is a remastered version of the 911s based on the 993-generation, showcasing a stunning carbon fiber and black finish. The carbon fiber’s unique quality reveals striking brown tones when illuminated by natural light.

 

 

Throughout the vehicle, light gold accents, inspired by new Porsche GT2s, adorn the badges and engine cover. At the rear, a Gunther Werks custom-designed LED light bridge adds to its distinctive allure, while the menacing appearance is further enhanced by the black Bi LED headlights.

Stepping inside the car, one is greeted by a tasteful combination of gloss black carbon fiber and opulent cognac aeronautical leather, sourced from the same hides used in Gulfstream jets, adorning the dash, seats, and rear seat-delete. The Alcantara steering wheel boasts a billet 12-o’clock marker, a design element echoed in the five-axis milled sport button surround.
