Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 WTL

O veículo em detalhes

The story of the Turbo-Look Carrera begins after the 911 Turbo was introduced in 1974, after which countless Carrera owners sought to achieve the wider, more aggressive stance of the Turbo through body shops. Eventually, the demand for Turbo look-alike Carreras became so significant that Porsche began offering the “retrofit” service on a case-by-case basis. Finally, in 1984, Porsche finally began officially offering what is now known as option M491, which included: 930 Turbo front fenders, rear fenders, a front spoiler, rear wing, complete Turbo brake assembly, and wider Fuchs wheels. One also had the option to delete one or both of either the front spoiler or the rear wing. In this car’s case, it was ordered without the back spoiler while retaining the front spoiler. Starting in 1986, both front and rear fenders were manufactured as widebody parts from the start, while prior model years had fender extensions welded to the original narrow fenders. Though exact production numbers of M491 cars are somewhat debated, official communication from Porsche indicates that this is one of just 8 M491 cabriolets delivered to the United States for model year 1986, making it an exceptionally rare specification.
