- The 911 GT3 Touring features a hand-painted Tree of Life graphic.
- Its gradient paint shifts from Violapurplemetallic to Chromaflair Magic Magenta.
- Porsche says the paintwork and graphic required about 400 hours.
Porsche has created a rather special 911 GT3 with Touring Package to mark 15 years of Porsche Moldova, and this one goes well beyond a badge and a fancy plaque.
Called the 911 GT3 with Touring Package Tree of Life, the Sonderwunsch inspiration car was commissioned by Porsche Moldova and developed with Style Porsche and the Sonderwunsch team in Zuffenhausen. Its theme is the Tree of Life, one of Moldova’s most recognisable cultural symbols, representing origins, tradition, continuity and growth.
Grape expectations
The exterior is the headline act. Porsche has given the GT3 an elaborate gradient paint finish that shifts from Violapurplemetallic at the front to Chromaflair Magic Magenta at the rear.
The colour concept is inspired by the ripening stages of grapes, nodding to Moldova’s wine-growing tradition. That gradient also continues onto the 20-/21-inch magnesium wheels, which are painted in matching tones.
Then comes the properly fiddly bit: a hand-painted Tree of Life graphic stretching across the front luggage compartment lid and roof, finished in Neodyme Porsche Gold. Porsche says coordinating the multi-layer paintwork and hand-painted graphic took around 400 hours of craftsmanship.
There is also a subtle Moldovan signature in the front apron grille, where the letter “M” is etched into the metal structure.
Folk craft meets flat-six
The cabin carries the same cultural thread.
Lila leather is paired with Ruby Star Neo accents, Atacama Beige contrast stitching and Pasha fabric in Ruby Star Neo and Atacama Beige.
Porsche says the interior pays tribute to traditional folk costumes, using a modern take on the classic Pasha pattern across the seat centres, door panels, glove compartment and luggage area.
Paldao wood adds another layer, appearing on the manual gear lever knob and on the backrests of the Adaptive Sports Seats Plus.
Sonderwunsch shows its range
“Porsche Moldova commissioned the 'Tree of Life' car to mark 15 years in the country, and we were honoured to be entrusted with this project,” says Michael Kirsch, CEO of Porsche Central and Eastern Europe. “I believe it can inspire customers and brand enthusiasts everywhere to discover what is possible when personal vision meets Porsche’s individualisation offering.”
The car was unveiled at the National Museum of Ethnography and Natural History in Chișinău. It will remain on display there as part of a dedicated exhibition before moving to Porsche Centre Moldova.
Porsche has not listed mechanical changes, so this remains a cultural and craft-led commission rather than a performance special. But as an example of what Sonderwunsch can do, it is about as far from configurator ticking as a 911 gets.
