KAMM was founded by Miklós (Miki) Kázmér in Budapest, Hungary, and focuses solely
on the 912 sports car produced between 1965-1969.
Unknown to many, Hungary has a long-tradition of car culture, with many generations
modifying Eastern Bloc cars with skilled ingenuity, as no off-the-shelf parts were
available. Once the import of Western vehicles started in the early 90s, Miki’s home city
of Budapest started to fill with Japanese and German performance cars and a new era
of Hungarian car culture began.
Miki has been a life-long fan of air-cooled cars, starting with the VW Beetle before
moving onto classic 911s and 912s. While he has owned, and loved, many versions of
both models, he never found his perfect car until he visited the Petersen Museum and
witnessed the original (67-68) 911R. Here was a car that was deliberately lightweight
and focused, with a 210hp motor and a back-to basics driving style.
That chance encounter inspired Miki to create the perfect 912 for himself, a car that
maintained classic looks while being fast and, most importantly, light. He found a donor
car and started work. At this time, Miki was (and still is) a film maker, so the 912 project
was a side-line project when the day job allowed, but development continued at a pace.
Miki soon realised that off-the-shelf parts did not offer the levels of quality, fit or
performance he required and, after numerous specialists promised to deliver…but
didn’t, he decided the only way to create the perfect 912 build was to amass a team of
specialists and complete a lot of work in-house with trusted partners. At this point, the
KAMM vision started to get serious, with more energy, time and investment focused
upon it.
After many years of painstaking attention to detail, and starting over to get things just
right, Miki was close to completing his perfect sports car and started to show other
Porsche enthusiasts. Word had also spread amongst the online air-cooled community
as Miki had started to discuss the car with those who were keen to know more. News of
KAMM was spreading.
Eventually the completed car was ready to drive in 2022 and, once some initial road and
track testing had been completed, it was clear this was a very accomplished and well-
balanced 912 restomod. A few months later, Miki decided to further refine the car, and
invited a small number of influential motoring journalists to evaluate the car in
development specification. Their verdict would determine if Miki had created a hit or
miss.
Every review was overwhelmingly positive, each reporting on its high-quality build,
racecar handling and explosive performance. KAMM was born, and the car was named
the 912c – the c standing for carbon fibre.
Less than 2-years later the KAMM 912c is regarded as an exquisitely engineered,
beautifully built, modern take on a 60s sports car icon. In an age where electronics take
over many of the driver inputs, the KAMM 912c offers something different in the world of
restomods in that it maintains classic charm, with modern updates, instead of trying to
completely modernise the 912 driving experience.
No two KAMM 912c models will ever be alike as, while the original ethos of the car
created by Miki runs through every car, owners are able to personalise many elements
ranging from colour and trim to gear ratios and exhausts. Whether you favour road
driving, trackdays or a mix of both, KAMM will make a 912c to suit your own individual
style and personality.
Today KAMM has its own build facility, a team of skilled staff, a number of client cars are in
build, a brand new Full-Carbon model has been launched, and glowing global reviews continue
to be published. Miki continues to oversee his film agency as well as managing each and every
KAMM 912c build, and the evolution of the cars it produces. His creative nature never allowing
anything less than perfection, in every element.
