About this car
The Porsche 918 Spyder, produced between 2013 and 2015, is a limited-run hybrid hypercar that marked a significant milestone in Porsche’s engineering history. Only 918 units were manufactured, making it an exceptionally rare vehicle highly sought after by exotic car collectors. It combines a 4.6-liter V8 engine with two electric motors, delivering a total output of 887 horsepower and 944 lb-ft of torque. This powertrain enables the 918 Spyder to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.5 seconds and achieve a top speed of 214 mph, while also offering a limited electric-only range of about 12 miles.
For collectors, the 918 Spyder’s rarity and historical significance as one of the first hypercars to integrate hybrid technology at such a performance level enhance its appeal. Its value has appreciated significantly since production ended, with auction prices often exceeding $1.5 million, depending on condition and provenance. Special editions, like the Weissach Package, which reduces weight and improves aerodynamics, are particularly coveted. As a benchmark of automotive innovation, the 918 Spyder remains a centerpiece in collections, symbolizing the transition to electrified performance vehicles.
Factory color
Guards Red
Guards Red is one of Porsche's most recognizable colors: a rich, solid red with a minimal hint of orange and a special luminosity that makes a bold statement on any 911. Originally known as India Red, it has been offered as a standard 911 color since the 1970s. Earlier cars, including mid-1980s 911s, carried it under code 027, and it later appeared under codes 80K and 84A on models including the 964, 993 and 996 into the early 2000s.
