Porsche has unveiled a new version of the 911 that shouldn’t surprise you if you’ve been keeping up with limited-edition 911s. The 2026 Porsche 911 Carrera T Club Coupe was designed to celebrate the Porsche Club of America’s 70th birthday, and it’s limited to 70 examples for the American and Canadian markets.
Launched during the 2025 Porsche Parade, the third installment in the 20-year-old Club Coupe series is based on the 911 Carrera T. It’s finished in a new, paint-to-sample color called Sholar Blue that’s named after Bill Sholar, the man who founded the Porsche Club of America in 1955. Guards Red accents, a “Club Coupe” decal on each door, and a commemorative logo on the decklid further help the Club Coupe stand out from the Carrera T, and 20-inch front and 21-inch rear wheels add a finishing touch to the look.
What the interior looks like depends on how many boxes you tick on the list of options. In its most basic configuration, the Club Coupe features black leather upholstery, a blend of Speed Blue and Guards Red stitching, edition-specific illuminated door sills, and a “Club Coupe” logo on the dashboard. It’s relatively subtle, so Porsche will offer Club Coupe-only tartan inserts as part of an option package for buyers who want to add a splash of color to the cabin. Fear not: the cool-looking walnut shift knob comes standard.
Porsche hasn’t made any mechanical modifications to the Club Coupe. Push the “start” button, and a 3.0-liter, twin-turbocharged flat-six comes to life. It develops 388 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque, and it spins the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transmission. The list of standard features includes a sport exhaust system, but it doesn’t sound like the eight-speed automatic transmission will be available.
Rear-wheel steering and a mechanical limited-slip differential with Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV) are part of the package. And, the Club Coupe sits about 10 millimeters lower than the regular 911 Carrera thanks to a sport suspension system. The six-piston front brake calipers come straight from the Carrera T.
Porsche will begin building the 2026 911 Carrera T Club Coupe in the fall of 2025. Production is limited to 70 units split between the American and Canadian markets, though we don’t know how many cars will be earmarked for each country. The first car built won’t be numbered: It will remain in Germany and join the Porsche Museum’s collection. The second car built will be the first of the 70-unit run, and it will be raffled off to Porsche Club of America members. The rest of the batch will be offered for sale to members, and we’d bet you half the cost of the Sport Chrono Package that every build slot will be spoken for quickly.
Looking Back
We’ve already seen two Porsche Club of America-themed 911s. The original, 997-generation Club Coupe was released in 2005 to celebrate the club’s 50th anniversary and was limited to 50 examples. It was finished in Azurro California Metallic, which Porsche envisioned as a modern take on the Azure Blue color often seen on the 356, and its 3.8-liter flat-six benefitted from the X51 Powerkit that added 26 horsepower.
Fast-forward to 2015, and Porsche built 60 units of the 991-based GTS Club Coupe to mark the club’s 60th birthday. The model was finished in Club Blau, a color created specifically for it, and it got a ducktail spoiler and 20-inch wheels. The three cars are shown below. We’ll let you decide which one looks better.
The Blue is beautiful. That color really pops.
