1998 Exclusive, Tequipment et Selection
Porsche and accessories
The Porsche equipment program. Tequipment, Exclusive, Selection
Loosely translated from the original German
Driving a Porsche is an experience, but this experience can include much more than just the driving experience with the fascinating Porsche product. The Porsche world also includes the entire range of accessories. The range is diverse and is characterized by three names: Tequipment, Exclusive and Selection.
Tequipment and Exclusive
The name Tequipment stands for all accessories that are specially tailored to Porsche vehicles. Tequipment means the possibility of customizing the vehicles visually or functionally with materials such as burl wood, fine leather, aluminum or carbon. There are no limits to creativity when it comes to vehicle refinement. In addition, Tequipment products such as roof transport systems or snow chains enable Porsche vehicles to be used universally.
Exclusive stands for the exclusive opportunity to customize your Porsche when ordering a new car using so-called EXC numbers.
New to the Tequipment range is, for example, the "Aerokit I", which consists of a front spoiler and a rear wing. In addition to the changed appearance, the Aerokit reduces the lift values, which further improves handling. Due to the aim of achieving balanced handling, the front spoiler and rear wing are only offered together. The optional version with an additional brake light increases active safety. The Tequipment range also includes a retrofit kit for converting Tiptronic vehicles from model year 1994 to the current Tiptronic S system, in which the gears can be changed from the steering wheel at the touch of a thumb.
Selection
The new Selection program offers Porsche fans selected accessories. Only products that meet Porsche quality standards have been included in the program. All products represent a successful synthesis of appearance and function. Porsche Selection offers a complete luggage series, attractive small leather and lifestyle items as well as a high-quality designer textile collection.
A luggage system that fits perfectly in the trunk and on the rear seat was developed especially for the Porsche 911 (993 and 964). The individual parts of the new lightweight luggage series called CARFIT can be individually combined. This means that up to three different pieces of luggage can fit in the trunk of the 911 at the same time.
The new textile collection from Porsche was conceived and developed by well-known designers. A sporty collection made of the finest materials was created exclusively for Porsche. In addition to their Porsche-relevant appearance, the items are particularly pleasing due to their high-quality workmanship.
Functionality was also taken into account in the textile collection. The Gore-Tex jacket in convertible style offers protection from wind and rain thanks to its special breathable fiber. Other special features of the jacket include a removable glasses pocket, double pockets on the outside, usable from the side and from above, inside zip pockets and the convertible hat that can be buttoned onto the collar.
There is also a designer sweatshirt made of chenille, a particularly soft cotton material. This sweatshirt with a knitted collar is available in red and grey. A leather jacket made of black, naturally dyed cowhide, a matching leather vest and a baseball cap that can be combined with it round off the clothing collection. We felt that the Porsche name was too good to take off-the-rack textiles and add the company logo to them. That is why Selection will only offer products that are specially designed, developed and produced for Porsche and are only available exclusively from Porsche. All items of clothing are available in sizes M (some S) to XXL. They are discreetly marked with the company logo. The items can be purchased in the 83 Porsche Centres or directly from the factory at Porsche in Ludwigsburg.
