Vorsteiner Founder's 2007 Porsche 911 Turbo Heads to Auction
A Carrara White 2007 Porsche 911 Turbo, formerly owned by Vorsteiner CEO Peter Nam and fitted with a rare Vorsteiner VRT body kit, is offered for sale with 53,000 miles and over $18,000 in recent servicing.

A 2007 Porsche 911 Turbo coupe that was previously owned by Peter Nam, chief executive of the aftermarket styling firm Vorsteiner, has been listed for sale. The car is one of only three examples understood to have been fitted with the Vorsteiner VRT body kit, a comprehensive aerodynamic package that gives the 997-generation Turbo a considerably more aggressive appearance.
Finished in Carrara White over Stone Grey leather and Alcantara upholstery, the coupe is offered on consignment by a selling dealer with service records, a clean Carfax report and a clean Arizona title. The odometer shows 53,000 miles, of which roughly 500 have been added under the current owner, who acquired the car in late 2025.
The VRT body kit is the centrepiece of the build. It comprises revised bumper covers and side skirts, together with a carbon-fibre roof panel, decklid, front splitter, rear wing, rear diffuser, mirror caps and air intakes. The car also carries a windshield banner, over-the-top stripes, side graphics and integrated quadruple exhaust outlets. It rides on 20-inch Vorsteiner V-301 centre-lock wheels finished in White Gold and mounted with Continental tyres.
Chassis upgrades include KW hydraulic lift coilovers and Tarrett Engineering drop links, while ceramic-composite brakes with yellow calipers have been installed. Inside, the power-adjustable sport seats are trimmed in Stone Grey leather with custom Alcantara inserts, red stitching, red seatbelts and body-colour seatbacks. The rear seats have been removed, and further details include carbon-fibre trim, a metal shift knob, and a Rennline pedal set and track mats. Factory equipment retains a Bose sound system and Porsche Communication Management with navigation.
The three-spoke steering wheel frames a central tachometer, a 225-mph speedometer and gauges for oil temperature, oil pressure, coolant temperature and fuel level. The optional Sport Chrono Package added a stopwatch atop the dashboard.
Power comes from the twin-turbocharged and intercooled 3.6-litre Mezger flat-six, linked to a six-speed manual transaxle. The seller states that the engine benefits from an AWE Tuning exhaust system, Tubi exhaust headers, AWE Tuning intercoolers and a Mase Engineering tune. In June 2025, Patrick Motorsports of Phoenix, Arizona, carried out more than $18,000 of work, including an engine-out service costing approximately $16,000 that covered a cooling system service and replacement of the water pump, coolant lines, front crankshaft seal, camshaft cup seals, fuel filter and various fluids. Borescope results, compression test readings and a DME report are included in the gallery.
The 997.1 Turbo remains a landmark model for Porsche, pairing the motorsport-derived Mezger engine with a manual gearbox at a time when the firm was increasingly moving toward dual-clutch transmissions. The Vorsteiner VRT kit, produced in extremely limited numbers, adds a layer of tuner provenance that is likely to appeal to collectors seeking a 911 Turbo with a documented and distinctive history.
The car is offered on consignment by a selling dealer that is a Bring a Trailer Local Partner. Its combination of low production numbers, a well-known first owner and extensive recent maintenance records places it among the more closely watched modern Porsche listings of the moment.
