Von Schmidt 001

A dream, an idea, the execution. The first Von Schmidt was the flying start of a new adventure.

The 50th anniversary

In 2013, Porsche released the ‘911-50’, an anniversary edition of the 911 honoring the 50th anniversary of the 911. This car showcased Porsche’s view of 50 years of development. A modern car with classic elements. We assembled the best of 50 years of technology in one build which resulted in de VS 001. Some of those elements are the interior and paint that were directly inspired by the 911-50.

Feel the drive

Overhauled and upgraded engine (from 3.6L to 3.8L), Bilstein absorbers, improved suspension with Michelin Pilot Sport tires. The VS 001 shows that the driving experience for the driver is of paramount importance.
