An espresso with ducktail, please!

Some people need a strong espresso in the morning; others, the sound of a six-cylinder boxer engine. Porsche and La Marzocco ask: why not both? Following their first collaboration in 2024, the two brands are now taking things a step further. The focus is on the Linea Micra, a compact portafilter machine whose design takes its cue from the 1972 Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2.7.

And they’ve done so quite consistently. The machine comes in three historic colour combinations: Grand Prix White with green, Blood Orange with black, and Grand Prix White with blue. It also features the classic Carrera RS lettering, historic Porsche logos and a cup tray whose shape is inspired by the famous ‘duck’s tail’ rear spoiler. Even the pressure gauges, with their red and green dials, are reminiscent of the instruments in the classic sports car.

911 units. And a pretty good cup of coffee.

Beneath the automotive-inspired exterior lies tried-and-tested La Marzocco technology: a 3-in-1 portafilter, an insulated steam wand, a two-litre water tank and app control for temperature and other settings. To match, there’s the Pico espresso grinder in the same design.

The two standard colour variants are each limited to 911 units. The blue-and-white edition is exclusive to Germany and is limited to just 150 units.

For those who want to savour the experience right down to the last sip, there are also matching espresso and cappuccino cups, accessories, streetwear and even a Porsche model car complete with a miniature coffee machine.

That leaves the question of price: the Linea Micra costs 5,790 euros, with the Pico grinder costing a further 1,550 euros. That makes a total of 7,340 euros. You won’t get a Porsche for that, but at least it’s a rather exclusive way to start the day.

The collection has been available since 30 October 2026. And one thing is certain: there’s rarely been this much motorsport in a coffee break.
