If you’re a fan of Porsche and dealer editions exclusives, the new Spark 1:18 Porsche Mission E Concept is just around the corner. Model is crafted as presented at last year’s Internationale Automobil-Ausstellung (IAA). Only 2500 pieces will be issued. Retail is suggested at 279 Euro or roughly $385 CND.
About the Porsche Mission E Concept… “The first 100% electrically powered Porsche is on its way. The supervisory board of Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG today gave the green light for the Mission E project. In the words of Dr. Oliver Blume, Chairman of the Executive Board, Porsche is thus “beginning a new chapter in the history of the sports car.” The vehicle is due to be launched at the end of the decade.
The Mission E concept car celebrated its premiere at the Frankfurt International Motor Show (IAA) in September. Visitors were gripped above all by its highly emotional design. Living up to the buzzword of ‘E-Performance’, the technological trailblazer combines outstanding driving performance with trendsetting day-to-day practicality. The four-door car with four individual seats has a system power output of over 600 hp (440 kW). The vehicle will thus achieve both acceleration of 0 to 100 km/h in under 3.5 seconds and a range of more than 500 kilometres. Charged via an 800-volt charger unit specially developed for the car, which is twice as powerful as today’s quick-charge systems, the lithium-ion batteries integrated within the vehicle floor have enough power again for 80 percent of the range after just 15 minutes. The vehicle can optionally be ‘refuelled’ wirelessly by induction via a coil set into the garage floor.”

Sealed, I take it?
Would have wanted to add this to my collection but that price for a sealer resin model is off-putting. Sure, it’s unique and “rare” in that it’s the only model for this concept right now, but I’d rather spend this kind of money on 911s.
