In St. Louis a few weeks ago, I saw a black Cabrio with the bodywork of a 1994 Turbo S flat nose. The back had the Turbo script and everything looked authentic, but I did not think such a car existed. Is this the real thing or a regular 964 Cabrio in drag?
I am trying to figure out how to upload a pic from my camera phone. The car did look incredible. Anyone know the owner?

Not sure you're asking in the best forum... try the 964 turbo folks.

You saw a 1994 flatnose turbo S or Flachbau. there were 22 made and if
you look on flachbau.com its the registry of these cars.
The flatnose option alone was like 90K or more than a regular 911.
Porsche always does neat stuff like this at the end of a run. Problem
is us normal citizens dont catch wind of this till its too late.

SO Yea you can ask that here.

I thought it was more like a 25k option, 90k, holy **** batman!

I believe the cost for the flatnose package was 60K.

OldGuy

it was expensive what ever it was.
What we didnt answer is the Cab issue.

ddavis

go to flachbau.com. your numbers are all off. there were 39 made for USA. there are NO Cabs.

Bill,
are you sure it wasn't a slantnose cab? the script on the back would say Turbo S.

Don,
I'm sure it was a duplicate of your pearl white Turbo S but as a cabrio. I'm familiar with these cars as I've been up close and personal with them at the StL Porsche club show. My question was simply if such a thing exists as a factory car or is it a 964 Cabrio with body panels. I know how rare this model is and had never seen mention of a turbo S Cabrio. Anyone had any hard info?
I didn't take a picture of the back and don't recall if it had the "S" on the script. I saw it parked in downtown Clayton outside of Miso and Roxanne....
Still working on the upload. It will show a black 94 Turbo S body as a cabrio. Where do I find my Rennlist member # so I can load the photo.
