The Pink Pig *
The “Pig” was certainly not designed to be pretty even if it was a brilliant exercise in aerodynamics.
Originally set to make its debut in Martini livery, legend has it that after Count Rossi took a look at the unusually shaped racing car he refused to let it race in the famous red and blue stripes.
Porsche then decided to go with the pink butcher-style livery to make sure it didn’t go unnoticed at the race track.
Although it was a one-off experimental race car, the Porsche 917/20 “Pink Pig” (or Truffle Hunter) became a legend for its surprising participation at the 1971 Le Mans.

Description
Vintage Porsche fabric for your feet.
Let’s face it. Car interiors have become dull. One look at the inside of a modern car and chances are you’ll be instantly bored.
But once upon a time, the good fellows at Stuttgart fought (and won) the battle against dull interiors with some pretty wild pattern and color options on their car seats.
One of the most notorious became known as the Porsche Pasha. Designed in the late 70’s and first released on the 928, it combines racing and disco-psychedelic genes, a pattern that evokes the movement of a checkered flag waving – come on… use your imagination!
We love the excess of it all and went a little crazy ourselves with the color combinations.
For the discerning Petrol Head. Nerdy but stylish.
