PORSCHE CANYON

911 Carrera 4: all-wheel drive, raised, on all-terrain tyres.

TALK TO US

DAKAR SPIRIT

911s have been crossing deserts for half a century.

TALK TO US

ONE BY ONE

Every Canyon starts the day someone commissions it.

THE PROJECT

THE 911 THAT LOOKED TO DAKAR

Sauri Classics reinterprets the Porsche 911 Carrera 4 Type 996: restored from the ground up and transformed to run where the tarmac ends.


It blends off-road character, modern engineering and craftsmanship: the short final drives are developed in-house.


Naturally aspirated. Restored. Ready.

BUILT TO LEAVE THE TARMAC

None of this is decorative. Widened arches over all-terrain tyres, underbody plating from nose to tail and a light bar on the roof. The spare is full-size and travels on the rack.

LIGHT BAR

  • Nine optics, full width

SPARE WHEEL

  • Full-size spare

WIDENED ARCHES

  • In body colour

ALL-TERRAIN TYRES

  • Tall sidewalls

UNDERBODY PROTECTION

  • Nose to tail

ROOF RACK

  • Lattice structure

THE MECHANICALS

Four decisions that define how it behaves.

ENGINE

ENGINE

Naturally aspirated flat-six. Between 300 and 350 hp, depending on the specification of each car.

STRUCTURE

STRUCTURE

Original steel monocoque, with a reinforced structure. Built on the donor 996.

RUNNING GEAR

RUNNING GEAR

Short final drives developed in-house. Being all-wheel drive, there are two.

DAMPING

DAMPING

Coilover, four-way adjustable. By KRS: motorsport engineering and manufacturing, in Cantabria.

THE CABIN

THE OWNER DEFINES THE INTERIOR

Seats, upholstery and finishes are decided project by project.


These are from different cars built here: they are a reference.

TARTAN AND LEATHER

Mixed upholstery, with the classic check on the seat centre.

DRIVING POSITION

Instruments and console in the 996 original layout.

ROLL CAGE IN PLAIN SIGHT

On track specification it is not hidden behind a panel: it is part of the cabin.

GEAR LEVER

The gear knob is a choice too. This one has the six-speed pattern picked out in yellow.

DOOR TRIM

The door panel, with the body colour showing on the frame.

COLOUR IN THE DETAILS

The body colour can carry inside, down to the sill plates.

THE PROCESS

From street 996 to Canyon, in four phases.

STRIP-DOWN
01

STRIP-DOWN

It all starts with a complete, meticulous strip-down: interior, body and mechanicals come out piece by piece.

MONOCOQUE
02

MONOCOQUE

With the steel shell stripped bare, two decades of road use come into view. Nothing is assumed: what gets saved and what gets replaced is decided here.

REINFORCEMENT
03

REINFORCEMENT

The monocoque is cleaned, repaired and reinforced where use off the tarmac demands it. That is the base everything else is built on.

ASSEMBLY
04

ASSEMBLY

Assembled component by component, to the specification its owner has chosen.

BEFORE AND AFTER

Drag to see what changes: ride height, track, wheels and roof.
