Just 5 days after receiving the limited-edition Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 sports car, a businessman born in Hai Phong but working and living in Saigon, along with his friends who share the same passion for driving, traveled from Ho Chi Minh City to Da Nang to prepare for a 3-month adventure in neighboring China.
Yesterday evening, on November 30, 2023, the entrepreneur from Hai Phong announced that he had returned to Vietnam. His convoy consisting of the Porsche 911 Dakar 2023, Toyota Land Cruiser LC300, and Ford Ranger Raptor had re-entered the territory of their home country through the Tay Trang International Border Gate, the international border gate located in the land of Ban Ka Hau Village, Dien Bien District, Dien Bien Province, Vietnam.
The odometer of the Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 sports car has likely surpassed 35,000 km. This showcases the adventurous spirit of the Hai Phong businessman who is willing to explore and experience this low-profile sports car. After more than 3 months of traveling on roads in China and the Gobi Desert, the Hai Phong businessman has safely returned home.
This is one of the rarest Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 limited-edition sports cars in the world, owned by the most mileage-driven owner. Moreover, the price of the Porsche 911 Dakar is triple the amount that German, British, or American tycoons would spend to own one.
According to preliminary information, Vietnamese tycoons have also purchased 2 official Porsche 911 Dakar cars. The second Porsche 911 Dakar has the number 19 on the side door and is said to belong to a media person.
The official selling price of the Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 is announced at 15.29 billion VND. However, the first car comes with a decent amount of additional accessories requested by the owner, so the price of the car increases to over 16 billion VND, and the final price after taxes amounts to nearly 18 billion VND.
The advantage of the Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 is the extra ground clearance of over 50mm compared to the standard model. This allows the Hai Phong businessman to comfortably drive this sports car from Vietnam to the Gobi Desert. Moreover, the Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 can increase the ground clearance by an additional 30mm in High Level mode. This mode is activated via a switch on the steering wheel, which allows the Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 to smoothly pass over speed bumps and road irregularities without worrying about scraping the undercarriage.
The “heart” of the Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 is a 6-cylinder inline twin-turbocharged petrol engine with a displacement of 3.0 liters. It generates a maximum output of 473 horsepower and a peak torque of 570 Nm. This engine is paired with an 8-speed PDK automatic transmission, all-wheel drive system, and rear-wheel steering. These features enable the sports car to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.4 seconds, with a top speed limited to 240 km/h.
