"The lightest 911 of all time, that also smashed five long-distance records at Monza in 1967." A real Porsche 911 R? Forget it. Those are rarer than an empty parking spot at the Nürburgring on a sunny Sunday. But a perfectly built tribute that you can actually drive without museum anxiety? Now that’s even scarcer. This is a tribute to the legendary lightweight icon of 1967, with the exact right ingredients: featherweight, brute force, and a setup that not only pays tribute to history but is also ready for some serious rally adventures. In 1967, Porsche stripped away everything that wasn’t absolutely necessary to put the 911 in full attack mode. Out went the unnecessary weight, and in came fiberglass panels, plexiglass windows, plastic door handles, and much more. The result? 810 kg of pure speed—so light that a strong gust of wind could blow it straight to Monza to smash some records. Unfortunately, homologation rules got in the way, and only 20 examples were ever built. Fast forward to today: this 911 R Tribute – BP Weltmeister revives that history, but with a twist. It’s built on an LWB (Long Wheel Base) chassis, making it far more stable for rallying. The base? A rare 1972 Porsche 911 Ölklappe, a unique version with the iconic external oil filler cap. But the magic is in the details and here are some! - HABERTHUR 2.4S 911/53 engine (220 hp, 70,000 km) - Short-spaced 4th (26x26) and 5th (28x22). - 870 kg kerb weight (the 911 R is the lightest Porsche ever built by Porsche) - Fibre bodywork, Makrolon windows & 6-point roll cage - rally-ready setup - Bilstein suspension + sport clutch for that explosive character Oh, and for the purists: the original engine (911/51) and gearbox (915/02) are included, so she is still matching. This is not some Frankenstein project, but a meticulously built tribute with a fat stack of documentation. Whether you want to drive (win) rally stages, make the Alps tremble, or just own a 911 that makes your pulse race faster than an espresso in Rome—this is the one. Don’t wait too long. Cars like this disappear faster than a 911 R passing you on the Autobahn… Call. Mail. Visit. We are happy to tell you all about it! "It gets a little bit louder above 5000 RPM, so you can’t hear the passenger scream."
