Default How many ducks were made?

Since they no longer produce duck tails as an option from the factory, does anyone have a tally of how many were produced?

The first look of my own duck

Don't know the answer to your question but I do wish they made the duck tail for the 991.2. I think it looks awesome!

That would be the XAT SportDesign package. I, too, wish the 991.2 had the duck option. BTW, beautiful car, Nads. What an exciting moment that must have been!

I drove 11 hours from NYC to Indianapolis in 1 leg, slept at a local hotel and couldn't sleep with excitement!!

Then of course drove it back with my girl friend.

Of course anyone with a non-duck can have one through Suncoast...

It's sarcasm. Porsche is very mum about all model-specific numbers so the answer 142 is meant to be funny.

Porsche doesn't release production information specific to options produced. I emailed Porsche about how many 991's were equipped with the X51 Powerkit and that's what they told me.

My guesstimate ....

Approx 200 per year 2013-2016

I rarely see them up for sale after looking at cars over 2 yrs now.

Perhaps those that have them....don't want to get rid of them...

It would be interesting to see the ratio of 991.1 aerokit cups vs ducktails. I think I tend to see more aerokit cups than ducktails in the wild at PCA events...but both are rare to find.
