Porsche has revealed a one-off 911 Carrera T developed through its Porsche Sonderwunsch program, using Taiwan’s geography as the foundation for its specification. The car, named “Formosa,” references the island’s historic nickname given by Portuguese sailors and translates to “Beautiful Island.”
The exterior is finished in Paint to Sample Ipanema Blue Metallic, selected to represent the surrounding Pacific Ocean. Contrasting elements in Suzuka Grey Metallic are applied to the rear Porsche script, window trim, and engine lid slats.
RS Spyder wheels measure 20 inches front and 21 inches rear, also finished in Suzuka Grey with Vanadium Grey accents on the inner rim. Lighting is upgraded with black HD-Matrix Design LED headlights and Exclusive Design taillights.
Interior Introduces New Materials and Patterns
Inside, the car uses Paldao wood trim as a reference to Taiwan’s mountainous terrain. The full bucket seats are trimmed in Truffle Brown and Black leather with Night Green stitching.
A newly developed “Formosa” checkered pattern appears on the seat centers and continues into the leather-lined front trunk. Additional bespoke details include illuminated “Formosa x Sonderwunsch” door sills and embossed headrests incorporating a 911 silhouette with wave and mountain motifs.
Carrera T Mechanical Specification Retained
The build is based on the Porsche 911 Carrera T, retaining its standard mechanical package. That includes rear-wheel drive, a manual transmission, reduced sound insulation, and a sport-tuned suspension setup. No performance changes have been made as part of the Sonderwunsch commission.
Sonderwunsch Program Scope
Porsche’s Sonderwunsch program supports factory-backed one-off builds and customer-driven specifications, either integrated into new vehicle production or applied as a retrofit. Paint to Sample Plus remains a central offering, allowing customers to create unique exterior colors beyond the standard palette.
In this case, the “Formosa” project demonstrates a full interior and exterior theme execution rather than a single-option customization, combining materials, finishes, and graphics into a unified specification.
