What is the diffference between the 92 968S and 968?

Thanks,

There's a 968 and 968 CS (clubsport), but no 968 S

I think the 968CS has stiffer suspension, the side graphics, different wheels, I think it has some weight reduction and stiffer torsion bars and springs than a standard 968. Just pulling that off the top of my head its been a few years since I've looked at the specs.

I'd say that the M030 was definately on the CS cars, maybe a little more HP too.

Does the 968 or 968CS have the S4 or 944 Turbo S type brakes and limited slip?

as said above, there is no such thing as a 968s

However, a lot of guys who have supercharged their 968's have rebadged them as a "968s". Here's one for example (Eric Sandoval's car): http://www.968s.com

There is also the 968 CS (Club Sport) which as mentioned above is just a step above the M030 option. I believe the 968 CS also has a different steering wheel (like that on Sandoval's car).

There is a 968 Turbo S as well, which is essentially the "best of the best" of the 924/944/968 line. It basically is just a 968 M030 with a 8v 3.0L Turbocharged engine (968 bottom end, 944 turbo top end).

There is also the 968 Turbo RS, of which there is only 4. This is a stripped-down racing version of the 968 Turbo S

The limited slip is an option in the 968, although it does have the 6speed (or Triptronic automatic).

As for brakes, I believe the 968 comes with the "regular" 944 turbo brakes. I'm not sure about the 968CS, although it wouldn't surprise me if they're upgraded.

The S would only apply if there was a Turbo in front. Not too many Turbo S around.
CS has M030 and other power stuff deleted, same engine, but the car is quicker with the weight reduction.

Ummm.
There was too a 968S "968 sport" model that was basicly a club sport with A/C, stereo, different seats, ect...... There were not that common though.

There was a 968 Sport in the UK. It was kind of midway between the Clubsport and the standard car. The Peter Morgan book describes it.

EDIT-Jason you beat me to it!

Better luck next time

I believe you all nailed it on the head with the CS. Pretty much the same as the regular but with different suspension and a lot of weight reduction.

I have never seen a Turbo S , which is not surprising considering there were only 14 built. I did find a website last year of an RS some guy in Mass owns. Imported it from Germany. He had pictures from NH speedway!

Jason at Paragon has a 968RS.
Sweet car!!!!

So do we agree that the 968S does exist? Was it shipped to the States?

Club Sport had mo30 as an option, it was not standard.
