Limited-run GT3 Touring–based special honors Ferdinand Alexander Porsche’s 90th birthday with heritage green paint and bespoke details.

Porsche has added yet another limited 911 to the catalog, but this one comes with a pretty clear reason to exist. For 2027, the company is building the 911 GT3 90 F.A. Porsche, a birthday edition marking what would have been Ferdinand Alexander Porsche’s 90th. He’s the guy who sketched the original 911, which is saying something when you look at how many rear-engined Porsches still trace that shape today.

The car itself starts life as a 911 GT3 Touring, so the big fixed wing stays in the parts bin and the cleaner tail gets the spotlight. The big visual hook is the paint: a metallic green shade developed as a modern take on Oak Green metallic, a color tied to F.A. Porsche’s own 911. It’s not loud, but it’s the kind of color that looks better the longer you stare at it, especially against the GT3’s more restrained Touring lines.

Inside, the changes lean more personal than showy. The seat fabric uses a special weave said to be inspired by one of F.A.’s favorite sport coats, which is a very Porsche way of doing a tribute—discreet enough that only the owner really has to know. Unique badging is scattered around the cabin, and buyers are also matched with an exclusive Chronograph 1 watch and a Weekendr bag from Porsche Design, a nice nod to the design house F.A. launched after his car work.

Underneath all of that, nothing changes where it matters to the stopwatch. The 90 F.A. edition uses the same naturally aspirated 4.0‑liter flat‑six as the standard GT3 Touring, still rated at 502 horsepower and still happy to spin all the way to 9000 rpm. The chassis, suspension, and overall driving hardware are unchanged too, which is unlikely to prompt any complaints from people signing up for one; the regular GT3 Touring is already one of the sharpest 911s in the range.

Exclusivity, as usual with these things, does a lot of the talking. Porsche is building just 90 examples worldwide, lining up with the birthday theme. One of those is earmarked for Mark Porsche, F.A.’s son, who also worked with the brand’s Sonderwunsch department on the spec. Everyone else will go through a one-on-one consultation to tailor their car within the edition’s framework, because at this price point that sort of hand-holding is part of the deal.

And the price is steep even by GT3 standards: the 911 GT3 90 F.A. Porsche starts at $387,000, a hefty premium over a “normal” Touring. Production is scheduled to begin in mid‑2026, with all 90 cars destined for a small circle of collectors and long‑time brand loyalists who want their GT3 with a little extra family history baked in.
