Big fan of Porsche are you? Then you must be familiar with the 1987 Porsche 944 that has been transformed into an off-road rally wagon dubbed Dirtmeister. I know. It is a handsome ride that unfortunately money cannot buy. Not that I have that kind of money to begin with. Thankfully, for petrolheads and motorsports enthusiasts, we now have a 1:64 scale version that you can own without breaking the bank.
Celebrating Porsche’s 75th anniversary, Hot Wheels and Mobil 1 are offering up a unique tribute to the Dirtmeister 944. This collaboration has transformed a life-sized 1987 Porsche 944 into an off-road rally wagon, aptly named the “Dirtmeister,” and now added to the revered Garage of Legends.
For collectors and Porsche enthusiasts alike, a special 1:64 scale edition of this rugged beauty is available, meticulously crafted with an all-metal construction to mirror the custom build’s remarkable design and off-road capabilities.
It features a sleek black body color decorated with authentic logos, signifying its racing heritage and Mobil 1 partnership. It’s built on the proven ZAMAC body type and features Baja off-road hubs, Elite 64 Porsche 928 Safari tires, a full metal, black-painted chassis, a black interior, and light smoke-tinted windows.
Each model is collector-ready, beautifully packaged on an illustrated blister card, and securely housed in a Kar Keepers clamshell case. This Hot Wheels Mobil 1 Porsche Dirtmeister 944 is not just a model car but a homage to innovation, partnership, and the enduring spirit of Porsche.
This made-to-order masterpiece is available for a limited time, from 2/27/24 at 9 AM PT until 3/11/24 at 9 AM PT with delivery expected by December 12, 2024.
The asking price is a modest 20 American dollars, if anyone’s interested.
