Porsche unveils special espresso machine with La Marzocco

Porsche has collaborated with Italian coffee machine manufacturer La Marzocco to launch a limited-edition Linea Micra portafilter model espresso machine.

Only 911 units will be produced, and it is available in two designs: Slate Grey Neo and Martini Racing. The latter pays homage to Porsche and Martini Racing's lengthy partnership and is inspired by the 911 Carrera RSR, which led Porsche to victory in 1973 at the Targa Florio endurance race.

The machine sports several features designed with iconic Porsche models in mind, such as the analogue pressure gauges emulating that of a Porsche speedometer

Several aspects of the machine's design, likeits twist handles and magnetic drip tray, take their inspiration from iconic Porsche models. Matching accessories include an electric coffee grinder as well as matching espresso and cappuccino cups.

The limited-edition Linea Micra espresso machine available internationally for purchase at Porsche Centres, Porsche's online shop, and in Porsche Design stores. Prices start at $9,040 for the espresso machine and $2,500 for the electric coffee grinder here in Singapore.
