993 Turbo Cabriolet - Talking about Rare.
I was farting around reading the Wiki on the 993 911. In 1995 before the introduction of the true 993 Turbos, Porsche offered for a premium a Turbo cabriolet.
Now some questions, has anyone ever seen one of these cars in the flesh? It appears it was a Euro only car generally only beind sold in Germany. When they come up for sale how much of a Premium do they command? And does anyone know if any have made their way to the US?
From what I understand these cars use the older Turbo motor with One Turbo and no AWD.
Saludos Cabroncitos.

12 cars built by Exclusive. They utilized a narrow body and the 964 3.6 engine and drivetrain. There is one in the U.S., possibly two now. You wouldn't know it was anything special unless you were told what you're looking at.
In terms of pricing and what sort of premium - well, you know the old adage....assume given the production numbers that for someone wanting one for their collection, they'll essentially pay whatever it takes to pry one out of an existing collection.
