How to Get Johnny Silverhand's Porsche 911 in Cyberpunk 2077 (Chippin' In Guide)

Johnny's Porsche 911 Turbo is free, but easy to miss. Here's how to unlock Chippin' In, handle Grayson and get the key to the container on the Ebunike.

Night City has faster cars, but none with the history of Johnny Silverhand's Porsche 911. The yellow classic – listed in your garage as the Porsche 911 II (930) Turbo – is the car Johnny drove back in his rockerboy days, and it's tied to a single quest. The only way to get it is through the side job Chippin' In, and one wrong move during that job can cost you the easy route to the car.

This guide covers how the job unlocks, how to get the key without a fuss, and where the car is waiting. The steps apply to the current version of the game, including the 2.0-era updates and the Phantom Liberty expansion, on every platform.

What you need

Tapeworm runs alongside the three big Act 2 threads – Evelyn Parker, Anders Hellman and Hanako Arasaka – so you'll be well into the story before Chippin' In shows up. Once Tapeworm is done, Johnny will want to talk at the Afterlife.

How to start Chippin' In

1. Go to the Afterlife in Watson and talk to Johnny near the entrance. He asks to borrow V's body for a night. Agree and take the pills.
2. Play through Johnny's night out. Your dialogue choices in this sequence don't change the outcome, so relax and enjoy the ride.
3. Wake up in the hotel room and talk to Rogue, then talk to Johnny. Leave the hotel when you're done.
4. Wait for Rogue's call. This can take a while. If nothing happens, keep doing other activities, drive around and skip time until she calls you back to the Afterlife.

How to get the Porsche, step by step

1. Meet Rogue at the Afterlife. Talk to her at her usual spot, then follow her out to her car.
2. Grab Johnny's jacket. Rogue tells you to open the trunk – the jacket is your first Silverhand item.
3. Ride to the docks. Rogue drives you to a shipyard in Northside. You can skip the rest of the trip once the conversation ends.
4. Read the Ebunike file. Follow Rogue into the yard, clear the enemies in your way and find the Dataterm in a small room of the building by the railyard. Read the message about the Ebunike.
5. Board the ship. Cross the railyard, take out the guards and climb the long metal stairs onto the Ebunike. A fight with Grayson's crew on deck can't be avoided.
6. Corner Grayson. He's not a real boss. Once his men are down, go up to him and pick up Johnny's Malorian Arms 3516 during the confrontation.
7. Spare Grayson. Answer his questions however you like, but when the final choice comes up, pick "Put weapon away." Grayson hands over the key to the container and tells you where it is.
8. Talk to Rogue and Johnny, then head to the nearby platform with the crane controls.
9. Lower the container using the crane panel.
10. Drop down, unlock the container and pull off the cover. The Porsche is yours.

From here, the 911 is saved to your vehicle list. Call it like any other car you own – hold the vehicle button to pick it from the list.

The drive to the Oil Fields matters, too

Chippin' In isn't over when you get the car. Johnny wants to visit his "grave" in the Oil Fields, and the conversation there is one of the most important in the game. It doesn't affect whether you keep the Porsche, but it decides whether Rogue's follow-up job Blistering Love starts – and that job is tied to the secret ending.

If you want to keep that path open, pick these lines in order:

1. Inscribe Johnny's initials ("Let's do something about that")
2. "The Guy Who Saved My Life"
3. The "Nah…" line agreeing that he messed that up too
4. "What do you want from me?"
5. "OK. But as second chances go, this is your last."
6. The "You were a real…" line about how rough he was in the beginning
7. "When you said you let down your friends…"
8. "Smasher biz really got to her."
9. "Yeah, I'll call Rogue."

If it worked, the conversation ends with V calling Rogue and Blistering Love begins right away. If it didn't, reload the autosave from just before the conversation and try again.

Tips

• Save before you board the Ebunike. Grayson's dialogue is the only part of the job that can trip you up. A manual save lets you redo it without replaying the whole night.
• Hang on to the gun. The Malorian Arms 3516 is easy to dismantle or drop by accident when you clean out your inventory. It's an Iconic weapon, and the jacket is a must for anyone dressing V like a rockerboy.
• Use your skills on the way in. Fextralife notes a shortcut on the east side of the shipyard that requires the Technical Ability attribute – handy if you'd rather not follow Rogue's long route.

Common mistakes

• Killing Grayson. You can still loot the key from his body, but guides report that the quest then stops pointing you to the crane and container – you'll have to find the controls yourself, or you may not get the objective to open the container at all. Picking "Put weapon away" is the safe option.
• Leaving before opening the container. Once Rogue drives off, don't wander away. Lower the crane and open the container before you head to the Oil Fields.
• Assuming there's a second chance. Chippin' In is the only source of the Porsche, and the car is considered missable, so treat the Ebunike visit as your one shot on that save.
• Rushing the grave conversation. Skipping through the dialogue at the Oil Fields is the most common way to lose Blistering Love. Take your time and save first.
• Expecting the call right away. Rogue's call after Johnny's night out is not instant. Waiting and skipping time is normal, so don't assume the quest is bugged after a few minutes.
