• Comment: Sorry, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say that this is not notable. The world is full of restoration projects like this. Some of them get publicity in fandom and enthusiast media, and technically might reach the WP:GNG threshold, but let's not forget that notability is only ever presumed (or not), not guaranteed. At the end of the day this is just one individual car, and it's not like it's Hitler's Mercedes 770K, or the car JFK was shot in. I really don't see any encyclopaedic value in this draft (and not least because it consists of all of one sentence). DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:49, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

• Comment: Some of these sources, if reliable, might mean this subject could pass GNG. However, I'm inclined to believe that the references are generally not reliable and fail to establish this vehicles's notability. In any case, this needs to be rewritten in an encyclopedic tone and with citations. Pbritti (talk) 16:42, 23 November 2023 (UTC)

#TARDZA is a nickname for a Porsche 911 3.2 Carrera Targa from 1984, restored by car artist Paweł Kalinowski in 2020.

The car gained media attention due to its history, having been previously owned by an individual with drug addiction, during which the car served as both a home and refuge for its owner and his dog.

Paweł Kalinowski performed a non-conventional restoration, preserving the rusty fender and maintaining much of the original exterior to narrate the car's story. Most of the restoration parts were received as gifts or in exchange from people around the world who wanted to be a part of this renaissance of the car. It is often referred to as a Recycled Porsche.

As of 2023, since the restoration, the car has actively participated in various social projects and events, accumulating a mileage of 440,000 km. It is publicly claimed that the car is on a one million-mile quest.
