Description
The 911 3.2 Carrera was launched in 1984 with the standard Carrera body, but if you wanted the look of the 930, you could ask Porsches ‘Special Wishes’ program to give your car the ‘Turbo Look’. This would effectively give you a 911 with the body, brakes, suspension and wheels of the 930 whilst keeping the engine and gearbox of the Carrera.
Your friends, family and even car buffs would think you were in a 930, it was only the eagle-eyed Porsche aficionados that could spot the difference. This was by no means a poor mans 930 though, in ROW form the engine put out 231 lag-free horsepower all perfectly spaced out across five gears. It was far more involving to drive than the 930 with its on or off turbo-lag power delivery and its widely spaced four-speed gearbox.
This car was delivered in October 1988 by Charles Follet in the UK. By this time (1987-89) Porsche had given the ‘Turbo Look’ or ‘Super Sport Equipment’ cars their own option code, ‘M491’. This is shown on the vehicle delivery sticker and has also been verified by Porsche Cars Australia.
This is a very original matching numbers car, wearing its delivery specification colour of Slate Grey with a matching grey full leather interior with factory sport seats. Being an MY89 car, it is fitted with Porsche’s much improved five-speed G-50 gearbox and represents the very last of the 3.2-litre Carreras. It has been very well maintained over the years, major items included an engine rebuild in the early 2000 at 112,000 miles, a new clutch in 2016 at 145,000 miles, and a Porsche Classic (PCCM) radio installed just recently.
It was imported to sunny Australia in 2010 and can be registered in any state without restriction. It comes with all its documentation, including books, old invoices and import approval.
We have just completed its yearly service and carried out a pre-sales inspection so it is ready to go.
