Movie tie-ins are usually forgettable. A special-edition crossover here, a sticker package there, and everyone moves on. Porsche, however, doesn’t do forgettable.
To celebrate the release of Toy Story 5, the German sports-car maker has unleashed a trio of one-off 911s that transform Pixar’s most beloved characters into rolling works of automotive art. Created by Porsche’s ultra-exclusive Sonderwunsch personalization division, the three bespoke sports cars draw inspiration from Buzz Lightyear, Woody, and Jessie—and, unsurprisingly, the level of detail borders on obsessive.
Unlike most Sonderwunsch commissions, these cars weren’t ordered by deep-pocketed collectors. Instead, Porsche built them as part of a charitable initiative supporting Big Brothers Big Sisters of America, the American Red Cross, and the Starlight Children’s Foundation. That means these may be among the rarest 911s ever created—because there was never a customer behind the order sheet in the first place.
To Infinity and Beyond in a GT3 RS
The most outrageous of the three is also the most fitting. Based on the track-focused 911 GT3 RS, Porsche’s Buzz Lightyear tribute looks like it rolled straight out of Andy’s toy box and onto a racetrack.
The bodywork combines white with flashes of Green Yellow, Lizard Green, Fire Red, Light Sport Grey, and purple, faithfully recreating the Space Ranger’s instantly recognizable color palette. But it’s the finer details that reveal the full extent of Sonderwunsch’s handiwork. Purple accents appear on the front aero vents, the driver’s-side intake, and even the upper section of the towering rear wing.
Space Ranger graphics are scattered throughout the exterior, while custom “Lightyear” lettering adorns the Goodyear tire sidewalls. Inside, the theme continues with white and gray leather, Alcantara trim, purple accents, and carbon-fiber door sills bearing Buzz’s famous catchphrase: “To Infinity and Beyond.”
It’s exactly the sort of machine Buzz would choose if intergalactic patrol duty suddenly required a Nürburgring lap record.
Woody Gets the Purist’s Choice
If Buzz is the extrovert of the group, Woody’s 911 is the understated enthusiast’s pick.
Built around the lightweight, manual-only 911 Carrera T, the Woody-inspired model swaps cartoon theatrics for subtle craftsmanship. Porsche developed a unique denim-inspired blue finish by blending Golf Blue, White, and Dark Sea Blue, creating a paint color that evokes the sheriff’s iconic jeans without resorting to literal graphics.
Aurum-finished details on the mirrors, front splitter, wheel center caps, and window trim add warmth, while Coffee Black accents provide contrast. The result is a surprisingly elegant interpretation of a character known for cowboy boots and a pull-string voice box.
The cabin is where the theme becomes unmistakable. Brown vintage leather is paired with Cognac and Dark Night Blue hides, while Cohiba Brown stitching and a yellow-and-red checkered seat-back pattern reference Woody’s western attire. Door-sill plates complete the package with the inscription: “Ride Like the Wind!”
Like the character itself, this is a 911 that doesn’t need to shout to get attention.
Jessie Brings the Drama
The final member of the trio is perhaps the most visually striking.
Based on the 911 Targa 4 GTS, the Jessie-inspired creation wears a custom paint finish called Jessie White Metallic accented by pieces finished in 944 Cobalt Blue Metallic. Bright GTS Red stripes sweep across the bodywork, giving the car a playful sense of motion even when standing still.
The most clever touch may be the Targa roof itself, which mimics the appearance of Jessie’s signature cowgirl hat with beige detailing integrated into the design.
Inside, Porsche went all-in. Dark Night Blue, Bordeaux Red, and Pebble Grey leather cover nearly every surface, while Pebble Grey stitching ties the palette together. Black-and-white cowhide-pattern floor mats provide a direct nod to Jessie’s western roots, and illuminated door sills greet occupants with a cheerful “Yee Haw!”
If the Buzz GT3 RS is the loudest and the Woody Carrera T the most sophisticated, the Jessie Targa is the showstopper.
More Than Just Movie Cars
All three Sonderwunsch creations made their public debut at the world premiere of Toy Story 5 in Los Angeles on June 9, turning what was already a major Hollywood event into an unexpected celebration of Porsche craftsmanship.
Whether these one-offs eventually find permanent homes through auction or another charitable avenue remains to be seen. Porsche has yet to announce when—or even if—the cars will be offered for sale.
Still, the trio serves as a reminder that Porsche’s personalization department remains capable of transforming virtually any idea into reality, no matter how unconventional. Because if a GT3 RS can convincingly become Buzz Lightyear, perhaps nothing is off limits anymore.
