There are only 911 units made, making it an exclusive launch. Additionally, this also celebrates the iconic 911 Carrera -- it is the main design inspiration. Fans of both imprints are offered two distinct designs to choose from starting with the classic [Slate Grey Neo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/porsche-x-la-marzocco-linea-micra) or the Martini Racing Edition. The machines are crafted with fine details, and packed with automotive influences. Some of the highlights include the steam and water twist knobs -- these are designed to reflect the drive mode switch in the Porsche cars. Additionally, the machine has anodized aluminum at the portafiler handles and rotary, rounded out with a black hexagon socket screw.
