Preserving the Original Essence

Erbacher Pure

The Erbacher Pure is the calmest and most original interpretation within the Erbacher model range. It is created for those who value the authentic character of the air cooled platform and prefer refinement over transformation.

Rather than pursuing maximum performance or visual exaggeration, the focus lies on preserving what defines the original. Every decision is guided by restraint, quality, and a deep respect for the base vehicle.

The engineering remains subtle. Naturally aspirated engines are carefully rebuilt or extended, materials are thoughtfully selected, and the overall concept stays close to the original while elevating its finish and presence.

The interior follows the same philosophy. Clean surfaces, precise detailing, and refined materials create a timeless and understated atmosphere. It is less about luxury in its conventional sense, and more about authenticity, balance, and lasting quality.

The result is an Erbacher build that feels honest, elegant, and true to its origins.

ENGINE

The Erbacher Pure is powered by a carefully rebuilt air cooled flat six based on the Porsche 964 platform, engineered to preserve the essential character of the classic naturally aspirated driving experience. A fully revised 3.6 litre engine developed in collaboration with EGMO already delivers a refined, reliable, and authentic driving experience with smooth power delivery and precise throttle response. Depending on customer preference, the engine can be further developed and extended, including displacement upgrades up to 3.9L or even 4.3L. Each configuration is carefully matched to maintain balance, drivability, and the unmistakable mechanical character of an air cooled engine. The focus is not on maximum output, but on authenticity, quality, and a driving experience that remains true to the original while benefiting from modern engineering precision.

BODY

The body of the Erbacher Pure is approached with a clear focus on preserving the original design while elevating its overall quality and finish. Exterior modifications remain intentionally subtle, allowing the timeless proportions of the 964 platform to define the vehicle. Depending on condition and customer preference, the body can be carefully restored, refined, or selectively refinished to achieve a clean and like new appearance. Original paint and patina can also be preserved, maintaining the authenticity of the vehicle where desired. Every detail is executed with precision and restraint, resulting in a car that feels authentic, elegant, and true to its origins — while benefiting from the craftsmanship and quality expected from an Erbacher build.

Interior

The interior of the Erbacher Pure is defined by a clear and restrained approach, focused on preserving the original atmosphere while elevating its quality and finish. Depending on customer preference, the interior can be carefully restored, subtly refined, or completely reimagined. From preserving original materials and layout to a fully renewed cabin, every execution follows the same philosophy of authenticity and craftsmanship. High quality leather, fabric, or period correct combinations can be selected, while handcrafted Erbacher elements such as machined controls, bespoke detailing, and refined finishes can be integrated throughout the cabin. The result is an interior that can range from original and understated to fully renewed and elevated, always maintaining a clean and timeless character true to the spirit of the car.

ESSENTIAL AIR-COOLED CHARACTER

The Erbacher Pure represents the most authentic interpretation of the Porsche 964 based platform within the Erbacher family. It is defined by a clear focus on preserving the original character while refining every detail to a higher level of craftsmanship. At its core, the vehicle can be equipped with a fully rebuilt air cooled flat six, ranging from carefully restored original configurations to more advanced setups such as the 3.9 litre engine with up to 350 hp and around 400 Nm. This allows for a noticeable increase in performance while maintaining the unmistakable character of the naturally aspirated driving experience. Every engine is developed in collaboration with EGMO and precisely calibrated to ensure smooth power delivery, mechanical clarity, and long term reliability. Combined with a manual gearbox and a balanced chassis setup, the result is a driving experience that feels familiar yet elevated, created for those who value originality, quality, and a timeless interpretation of the classic air cooled sports car.
