- The Meyers Manx dune buggy has been reborn as a deliciously Porsche-flavoured two-seater thanks to the technician-artisans over at OTTO WERKS.
- Incidentally, the original Meyers Manx was something of a โcousinโ to the Porsche 356 due to its Volkswagen Beetle chassis.
- Now, the ties between Meyers Manx and Porsche are far more explicit (and to remarkable effect).
Porsche specialists OTTO WERKS have refreshed the worldโs most famous dune buggy, which was itself a โrelativeโ of the Porsche 356 via the original Volkswagen Beetle platform, to deliver a custom whip for the wish list.
Feast your eyes on the OTTO WERKS Edition Manx.

Flaunting an Ivy Green paint job thatโs a near one-for-one replica of Porscheโs Oak Green Metallic, period-accurate 356 gauges, two-tone Speedster seats, as well as square-weave carpet, mil-spec wiring harnesses, Marchal fog lights, and beehive tail lampsโฆ this isnโt so much a millionaireโs toy as it is a mobile sculpture.
As youโd expect from an operation renowned for precision Porsche work with โfactory-trained technicians and direct ties to Porsche Motorsport North America,โ itโs a work of art. Every single detail has been carefully considered by OTTO WERKS for this jaw-dropping family reunion.

Under the hood, youโll even find a 2.2L Willhoit racing-based, air-cooled boxer engine built in-house by the OTTO WERKS team, and capable of generating 170 horsepower with 160 lb-ft of torque. Paired with a lightweight fibreglass body, you can already imagine what sending this bad boy along the coast might feel like.
