Few names command greater reverence in the world of Porsche tuning than Gemballa. Its 45-year-long story is filled with performance records, intrigue, and above all: a vast roster of unique high-performance interpretations of Stuttgart’s finest sports cars. In 2021, Marc Philipp Gemballa embarked on a new chapter, honoring the legacy of his late father Uwe Gemballa, while establishing a distinct vision of his own.
His inaugural creation was the aptly named the Marc Philipp Gemballa MARSIEN, a bespoke all-terrain adventure supercar based on the formidable 992-generation 911 Turbo S. Its new carbon fiber bodywork, penned by Alan Derosier, combined the elegant design language of the contemporary 911 with the unmistakable rear silhouette of the 959—taking particular inspiration from the Rothmans-liveried Group B 959s that conquered the Paris-Dakar Rally in 1986. Its extra-terrestrial title was equally intentional, referencing the Martian-red sands of the Al Faya Desert in the United Arab Emirates where the MARSIEN was rigorously tested. The 911 Turbo S’ twin-turbocharged 3.7-liter flat-six was entrusted to RUF Automobile, who increased output to a formidable 740 horsepower and 686 lb-ft of torque. Beneath the sculpted bodywork, a bespoke KW Automotive suspension featuring double wishbones up front and a multi-link rear axle endowed the MARSIEN with remarkable versatility, offering 4.7 inches of standard ground clearance and the ability to raise electronically to nearly 10 inches for genuine off-road exploration.
Production of the MARSIEN was limited to just 40 examples worldwide, with the car offered here representing the 21st such example completed. Beginning as a U.S. market 2021 Porsche 911 Turbo S delivered new to Porsche Westlake in Thousand Oaks, California, the Turbo S was sold to its only owner in January of 2021, who promptly commissioned its Paris-Dakar transformation with Marc Philipp Gemballa on 23 July of that year.
Its original invoice, which boasts €135.024 of premium options, is highlighted by the Al Faya Pearl White Effect finish—a Special Limited exterior paint applied to only five examples total. This exclusive finish is supplemented with Gloss Finished, Tinted Exposed Carbon Fiber Top Stripes as well as the Exposed Carbon Fiber Exterior Package in Tinted Blue and sporting a matte finish. This MARSIEN also features 935/RSR-style mirrors and contrasting Blue-painted brake calipers.
The cockpit is swaddled in Dark Gray Alcantara with Blue accents and further elevated with the Exposed Carbon Fiber Interior Package (Matte Finish) that extends to its Club Sport rollbar and Original Porsche Carbon Fiber Bucket Seats. This example has been additionally equipped with the RUF Engine Upgrade, delivering 830 horsepower thanks to uprated VTG turbochargers and a new ECU mapping. With these upgrades, the car can sprint from zero-to-60 mph in 2.8 seconds and to a top speed of 208 mph.
In October 2025, the MARSIEN was sent to Impero Motorsports to receive a full application of Paint Protection Film and was subsequently serviced that December at Beverly Hills Porsche according to invoices on file. More recently in May 2026, the car benefitted from more than $10,000 of work performed by Porsche specialists Paradox Performance (formerly E-Motion Engineering) in Costa Mesa—which includes performing a corner balance, alignment, and sorting for the boutique limited-production supercar.
Offered now with just 4,699 miles at cataloging, this 2021 Marc Philipp Gemballa MARSIEN is perhaps one of the most imaginative and exclusive modern supercars yet conceived. It is equally comfortable devouring a winding mountain pass, traversing vast desert expanses such as those it was developed on, or taking pride of place within a world-class collection. With production extraordinarily limited and fewer than a handful known to reside in the U.S., this is a true unicorn on virtually any road, trail, or concours lawn it encounters.
