Black-Cloaked Porsche 911 MR26 Void Will Light Up Any Driver's Day

The latest bespoke build to catch our attention is the Porsche 911 MR26 Void, a unique creation that has just rolled out of France-based Machine Revival's workshop. Representing the outfit's 26th completed project, the Void considerably raises the bar in the world of custom Porches and is nothing less than the definition of drivable art.

Based on a 1982 G-Series 911, this masterful creation blends classic lines with cutting-edge technology. And although from a visual standpoint, it might not look all that different from a genuine 911, a lot of time and effort went into turning this machine into a rolling work of art, and it's no surprise that it has a $325,999 asking price.

Described as the epitome of performance and style, the MR26 Void boasts a striking carbon Kevlar bodywork with lightened bumpers, an exposed carbon deck-lid, custom LED lighting, and flared fenders. The only thing that's been kept from the original machine is the monocoque. The extensive use of carbon fiber has led to a curb weight of just 2,054 lbs (932 kg).

This is the first black Porsche 911 created by Machine Revival. And the team not only used black as a paint color but also as a material, exemplified by the extensive use of carbon on the bodywork. Moreover, the dark theme extends to the interior and the mechanical parts, which are either powder coated or anodized.

To enhance the car's appearance, the outfitters created some contrast with the addition of gold accents, like the custom LED headlights, the front and rear bumpers grids, and the engine hood holes. The gold-finished 16" Campagnolo wheels further emphasize the depth of the glossy black paint job.

The car also benefits from an extensive array of mechanical modifications. Upgrades start under its hood, where a custom-tuned 3.0-liter flat-six engine with individual throttle injection and custom fuel mapping lies. The mill is mated to a five-speed manual gearbox and is able to output 297 horsepower (302 ps).

But improvements don't stop there, as the Void also boasts an advanced dynamic-controlled suspension, six-piston front calipers with drilled ventilated discs, and four-pot units out back. All these modifications are meant to endow the car with exceptional handling and performance.

As for the interior, the same exquisite detailing can be observed, with carbon fiber, wool felt paneling, and Alcantara elements. There is a custom steering wheel, a die-cut aluminum shifter, and a perforated aluminum pedal board.

The attention to detail is mind-blowing inside the cabin, where the carbon fiber bucket seats are adorned with tattoo-inspired contrasting gold illustrations and are matched by a similarly customized instrument panel. The same style can be observed on the door panels.

The workshop describes the one-off Void as "lightened, optimized, cut and designed for the track," adding that it has "the character of a racer, but it’s still a delight to drive on the steep roads leading to the starting grid."

From its custom-tuned engine to the stunning bespoke interior, the 1982 Porsche 911 MR26 Void by Machine Revival displays exceptional craftsmanship and exemplifies the pursuit of high performance. The car is currently offered for sale through the MC Automotive Group in Boca Raton, Florida.
