Despite not being able to obtain the desired date of birth license plate, the owner of the Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 managed to acquire a new license plate through an auction event, which holds significant meaning to him.

Undoubtedly, car enthusiasts in Vietnam still recall the tale of the Porsche 911 Dakar 2023, owned by a wealthy individual from Hai Phong, who embarked on a remarkable cross-country adventure across South to North, even passing through China and Mongolia, spanning a remarkable duration of 3 months. This off-road supercar triumphed over various terrains, conquering deserts, snowy roads, mountains, and even water crossings. It is estimated that this journey covered approximately 35,000 km, truly putting the Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 to the ultimate test.

It is noteworthy that in order to legally drive on the road for this cross-country adventure, the owner obtained a license plate for the Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 through random selection, as he was unable to secure the desired date of birth license plate.

After successfully completing the journey, the wealthy individual from Hai Phong continued his pursuit for the desired license plate. On December 22, 2023, a license plate that matched his desires, 51L-199.11, was put up for auction. Consequently, he took part in the auction and successfully secured it for the base price of 40 million VND.

For the owner of the premiere Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 in Vietnam, the license plate 51L-199.11 possesses 5 particularly special numbers – 19.911. Precisely, 19 denotes the owner’s birthday, also being showcased as an additional number on the 2 doors and the first 2 digits of the vehicle’s serial number 1904/2500. Following that is the number 911, which beautifully corresponds with the name of the Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 sports car.

The Porsche 911 Dakar is equipped with a powerful 3.0L 6-cylinder boxer engine, generating 473 horsepower and 570 Nm of torque. It is paired with an 8-speed PDK automatic transmission and an AWD drivetrain. With this remarkable power, the car can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.4 seconds and reach a top speed of 240 km/h.
