The three Porsches come from the automaker’s Sonderwunsch (“Special Wishes”) department, where the team spent 350 hours hand-painting each vehicle. The 911 GT3 with the Weissach package has a Buzz Lightyear-inspired livery in white, green and purple, with the cabin getting a purple and green paint job.
The second car is the 911 Targa 4 GTS inspired by the Jessie. It’s more subtle on the outside than the GT3, with blue rocker panels and yellow accents, but inside it’s stunning. The majority of the cabin in the Targa features dark night blue leather, with red accents and cow-inspired floor mats.
Woody is a 911 Carrera T with a denim-like finish. The Sonderwunsch team pressed real denim into wet paint to give the car a unique look. Inside, the seats have more woody-inspired touches like a checkered pattern and brown leather.

Motor1’s Opinion: The last time Porsche teamed up with Pixar, the automaker raised $3.2 million for charity, and it’s nice to see these cars being used for a good cause. They put entertainment first and are great reminders not to take things too seriously.
