Somewhere right now, a fully grown adult is searching "mini Porsche go kart for adults" and telling themselves it's for the kids. We see you. We were you. This guide is for you.
We sell two half-scale Porsches: the Mini Porsche 911 and the Mini Porsche 964. Both are electric and gas replica go karts with a steel chassis, rear-wheel drive and a cockpit that fits drivers from roughly 5'0" to 6'4". Here's how to choose between them, what you actually get, and the questions everyone asks before buying.
Yes, it really fits adults
It's the first thing people ask, usually followed by their height. Both Porsches are built around a driver fitment of approximately 5'0" to 6'4", so most adults slide in with room to spare, and riders from age 12 can drive with an adult supervising. This is not a toddler's ride-on wearing a Porsche sticker. It's a proper half-scale car that happens to be small enough for the garage.
911 or 964: pick your era
Mini Porsche 911: the classic
Long hood, round headlamps, a low rounded roof and that unmistakable rear. The Mini 911 is for people who love the early shape and want something that looks as right parked in a showroom-clean garage as it does on a driveway. It comes in 18 standard finishes, from Carrera Redline and Bayside British Racing Green to Military Camouflage, plus #23 racing liveries.
Mini Porsche 964: the race-livery one
The 964 takes the same idea and turns up the attitude. It's the one for racing stripes and full liveries, with 13 finishes including Speed Yellow & Black Race Livery, Rosenblush Pink & Black Race Livery, Pearl White with #3 Racing Stripes and Petrol Teal.
Choose your motor
• Standard: 3000W electric, up to 45 mph (72 km/h), from $2,099
• Performance: 4000W electric, up to 65 mph (104 km/h), from $2,299
• 4-Cylinder: gas engine, up to 65 mph (104 km/h), from $2,299
• Electric models: about 7 hours to charge, up to 4 hours of driving
If you'll be the main driver, Performance is the fun one. If the kart will be shared with teenagers, Standard plus the speed limiter lets learners start slow. And if you want the sound of an engine and never want to plug anything in, the 4-Cylinder is your car.
Choosing a model and a color on the product page is a standard order. Only orders placed through our Custom Build page count as custom builds.
What it costs, and what's included
The Mini 911 and Mini 964 start at $2,099 for Standard and $2,299 for Performance or 4-Cylinder. Every kart ships free with standard US shipping, comes with a 90-day warranty, and can be returned within 30 days of delivery if it's unused and hasn't been driven (a restocking fee applies).
Where you can drive it
Neither Porsche is road legal. They're built for private property: long driveways, estate roads, private lots and track days. Our where-to-drive guide covers surfaces and a two-minute safety check before every run.
