Paint to imitate rust? Porsche has the option

Personalization plays an increasingly important role in the automotive world. Aware of this, Porsche seems to be preparing a very special paint job that even imitates… rust.

In a kind of homage to the rat rod concept, this Porsche 911 features a paint job that aims to imitate the effects of long years of neglect.

Fruit of the work of the “Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur”, which has more than 105 individual colors for models such as the 911 or 718, this new “color” is called “Patina Paint to Sample” and is part of the “Paint” range of exclusive paintings To Sample”.

It remains to be seen if and when this “painting” will be included in the catalogues. After all, his revelation was made on the first of April.
