Porsche Restores Mulberry Green 993 Turbo With NYC Design House | Carscoops

Contrasting the dark green exterior is a cabin clad in plush brown leather.

Porsche has partnered with New York fashion brand Aimé Leon Dore and launched one of the most fabulous-looking 993 911 Turbos you'll ever come across. This car is the fifth classic model restored as part of the partnership between Porsche and Aimé Leon Dore.

In crafting this very special 993 Turbo, Porsche has used several elements from the Turbo S, including its larger rear spoiler. The front splitter from the Turbo S is also present, as well as a more efficient exhaust system. The paint is the particularly eye-catching Mulberry Green and probably wouldn't look great on a new 911, but it suits the 993 to a tee. Colored-matched 18-inch wheels have also been added.

Completing the exterior changes are new gold stickers on the doors, gold rims on the wheels, and gold brake calipers.

As gorgeous as the exterior of the car is, the interior is perhaps even more spectacular. Dark brown leather now adorns many interior surfaces and is complemented with matching lambswool accents and hardback seats. Add the dark brown carpets and floor mats, the seatbacks painted in Mulberry Green, and Aimé Leon Dore and Porsche logos to the steering wheel and headrests, and the environment looks like a pretty special place to spend some time in. The highlight of the cabin is a brass gear knob and an inscription on the door sills reading 'A team from outta Queens with the American dream.'

To coincide with the unveiling of this special 993 Turbo, Aimé Leon Dore is releasing a capsule collection with a range of apparel, including a leather jacket. The collection is available from November 22 at stores and on Aimé Leon Dore's website. Porsche Design of America will also sell several items from the collection at the Porsche Design Store in Beverly Hills.

Other classics that have been restored by Porsche and the design house include a classic Porsche 944 Turbo and a Porsche 964-generation 911 Carrera.
