Porsche has revealed the 911 GT3 100 Jahre Nürburgring, a market edition marking the circuit’s 100th anniversary in 2027 and limited to 100 cars for the German market. Orders open in September 2026, with deliveries scheduled for the anniversary year. The car made its public debut at the Porsche Sixt Carrera Cup Deutschland round at the Nürburgring, and Porsche has not announced pricing.
Porsche does not quote output figures for the edition, which uses standard 911 GT3 hardware. The current GT3 produces 502 hp and 331 lb-ft from its naturally aspirated 4.0-liter flat-six. Buyers choose between the seven-speed PDK and the six-speed manual, the latter fitted with a walnut shift knob shared with the 911 Carrera T. Gear markings are finished in green on both.
Two exterior colors are offered. White references the blank factory finish historically used to leave room for sponsor branding, while GT Silver Metallic draws on Porsche Cup cars. Both are paired with green accents referencing the Nordschleife’s Green Hell nickname, coined by Sir Jackie Stewart. The front section and rear trim wear a green wrap that also functions as protective film, echoing the way factory teams once marked cars to tell them apart during races.
Detailing runs throughout the exterior. Green tow lugs can be threaded into the front and rear before track sessions, with white arrow markings indicating the recovery points per typical racing regulations. Historic Nürburgring logos appear on the fenders, and a start number customizable from 0 to 999 goes on the hood, doors, and rear window in a hand-drawn font that Style Porsche and Exclusive Manufaktur based on graffiti found along the Nordschleife. The windshield sun strip carries gold Porsche lettering, mirror shells are finished in green over body-color bases, and the lightweight 20/21-inch forged aluminum GT3 wheels are painted high-gloss California Gold with satin black center locks. B-pillar badges read GT3 100 Jahre Nürburgring alongside a California Gold graphic of the track layout, and the rear wing carries gold Porsche lettering on the underside of the blade with green sideplates and a gold Nürburgring emblem.
The color-coordinated Manthey Kit is available as an option, adding modified suspension, revised braking components, and an aerodynamics package that raises downforce to 1,190 pounds (540 kg) at 177 mph (285 km/h). Porsche cites a Nordschleife lap of 6:50.853 set by DTM champion Ayhancan Güven as a demonstration of the kit.
Inside, the door sill trims in black anodized brushed aluminum are inscribed “Welcome to the Green Hell,” illuminated in white when the doors open, and LED door projectors cast an outline of the circuit onto the ground. The extended leather and Race-Tex trim in black carries cross-pattern decorative stitching on the upper dashboard and doors, using three lines of black stitching and one in GT Silver in reference to the circuit’s kerbs. The rear roll cage is painted green, and the driver’s lightweight bucket seat uses a green backing material visible through graduated perforation in the center panel and bolsters, a treatment not applied to the passenger seat. The driver’s headrest carries an embroidered Nürburgring logo and the passenger’s reads GT3, and both are removable for helmet clearance on track. The GT steering wheel’s mode button is marked Grüne Hölle, the push-to-pass button is green, and the dash trim panel is finished in high-gloss green.
Buyers also receive access to a Sonderwunsch Manthey Experience, a behind-the-scenes day at Manthey’s facility next to the circuit covering the Manthey Kit and the company’s racing operation. Manthey has specialized in Porsche GT models for 30 years, and Porsche AG has been its majority shareholder since 2013.
Porsche Design is offering a matching Chronograph 1 exclusively to buyers of the car. The case is black-coated titanium housing the COSC-certified Porsche Design caliber WERK 01.140 with a bilingual weekday and date display, driven by a rotor styled to match the car’s wheels. The matte black dial carries the historic Nürburgring logo, and the strap uses Porsche interior leather perforated over a green textile backing with GT Silver stitching, matching the car’s interior. The watch is assembled at Porsche Design’s factory in Grenchen, Switzerland.
The Nürburgring opened on June 18, 1927. The Nordschleife runs 12.9 miles (20.8 km) through the Eifel range with 73 corners and roughly 980 feet (300 m) of elevation change. Porsche first raced there in the Eifelrennen with the 550 Spyder on May 31, 1953, and ran the newly developed Type 547 engine, later known as the Fuhrmann engine, in German Grand Prix practice that August. The 910 took Porsche’s first win in the circuit’s 1,000-kilometer race in 1967. Stefan Bellof set a 6:11.13 lap in a 956 during practice in 1983, and Timo Bernhard recorded 5:19.546 in the 919 Hybrid Evo in 2018.
