Introducing Sally - the famous 911.

30/8/2022

Based on the fastest and most agile variant of the 911 Carrera model line, the 911 Carrera GTS. Sally is equipped with a manual gearbox, hand painted in Sallybluemetallic, a special Pepita houndstooth fabric upholstery in three colours. The team at Weissach even went as far as recreating the 996 Turbo-look rims that were manufactured especially for the 911 Sally Special and included Sally's tattoo under the rear spoiler of the car as seen in the original movie.

This one-off commission from the Porsche Team was auctioned as part of Monterey Car Week in California. A portion of the proceeds will benefit young women through a donation to Girls Inc. The second portion will go to USA for UNHCR, an organisation that supports refugees from Ukraine. The auction also featured a special indoor car cover from Porsche Tequipment, a wheel rack with an additional wheel set consisting of Carrera Exclusive Design wheels, a book on the development and production of the one-off model and original drawings by designers Shuichi Yamashita and Bob Pauley.

The final hammer auction price was secured by a telephone bidder at just over £3,000,000. The handover team included actress Bonnie Hunt, the voice of Sally Carrera, Jay Ward, Creative Director of Franchise at Pixar Animation Studios, and Bob Pauley, who, as Production Designer for Cars, sketched Sally for the first time 20 years ago.
