One-off, ex-factory-owned 1990 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 headed to auction

Broad Arrow Auctions reports that this 911 was sold new in Germany, first registered in the town of Böblingen, and owned by Porsche from 1990 to 1993. It adds that this very likely explains the color combination and the relatively long list of features this car was ordered with, and that the Böblingen registration isn't as trivial as it seems: That's where many special, factory-owned cars have historically been registered.
The car's life after Porsche sold it is reasonably well documented. Heinz Mohr, a coach for the German ski team, bought it in 1993 and sold it to Frank Wörndl, a professional skier, the following year. In turn, Wörndl sold it to a buyer in France in 1996, and the car remained there until it was imported to the United States in 2022. Service records written in German, French, and English are included in the sale along with a Porsche-stamped service book.
Beyond the cool factor, this 911 is a fascinating part of Porsche's history because it illustrates the type of one-off requests the company was receiving — and saying"yes" to — in the early 1990s. It's offered with no reserve, so the highest bidder will take it home, and Broad Arrow Auctions estimates that it will sell for anywhere between $110,000 and $140,000. The auction is scheduled to start June 10.
