The six gaming sets showcase the marque's greatest racing colors of the past 75 years.
through gaming,” Robert Ader, vice president of global marketing at Porsche AG, said in a statement. “That’s why it plays a key role for us to stay relevant not just among current fans but among new generations.”
The six gaming sets were inspired by some of the nameplate’s most iconic and memorable models, including the 911 GT1 that won 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1998, the “Pink Pig” racecar that was covered in quirky butcher-style cuts, and the “Hippie” racer that was finished in deep blue and bright green. Other muses include a 935 that was nicknamed “Moby Dick” on account of its huge tail and a 917 with Salzburg livery that gave Porsche its first Le Mans win in 1970.
The six gaming sets will arrive this fall, but can’t be bought the regular way. Porsche is holding special sweepstakes from now until October 1 to give collectors a chance to win one of the nostalgic sets. The marque plans to unveil the six IRL at major auto and gaming events this summer and will also be posting videos of them on various social channels. You gotta love a bit of anticipation.
