This is a unique, highly modified ROW (rest of the world) 1984 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet which has been properly certified to be driven in the United States as is shown with the plaque by the driver door opening. In 1995, the car was converted to the extra wide Turbo body and the original 3.2 liter engine upgraded to a highly modified Stage 3 Turbo by Proto Tech Engineering in Fort Lauderdale, FL.
Specifically, the engine was upgraded by Proto Tech to their Stage 3 level which produces 580 horsepower at 6,500 rpm. Modifications include a Garrett Turbocharger, upgraded intercooler, electronic wastegate controller, boost guage, 3.3 liter Mahle 503 piston and cylinder set, stainless steel exhaust, upgraded clutch disc, top end engine rebuild, 3.31 turbo P/C’s, Bosch fuel injectors, Bosch fuel pump, Bosch spark plugs with Clewett Engineering high performance spark plug wires, HKS wastegate, MSD 6 series multiple spark discharge ignition, Promotive turbo fuel pressure regulator and much, much more. The 5 speed manual transmission was swapped for the stronger 930 OEM 4 speed transmission. The end result is an engine that produces 580 horsepower at 1.1 bar boost and according to Proto Tech will propel this Porsche from 0-60 mph in 3.4 seconds with a top speed of 235 mph.
In 2015, the current owner had Proto Tech go through the entire Stage 3 engine adding a new 3.3 liter Mahle 503 piston and cylinder set, top end engine rebuild plus various other upgrades and a new clutch assembly. At the same time, Rennstatt Racing of Ann Arbor, MI tore down and inspected the 930 transmission and replaced the main shaft bearing, synchro rings and main shaft bearing.
The exterior of this beauty is white while the interior is mostly all new with seats covered in black leather. Additions include a roll bar, handsome 17” deep dish aftermarket wheels with Porsche center caps, 315/35 R17 Bridgestone tires in the rear and Goodyear ZR Comp T/A tires in the front which have approximately 80% tread remaining. A Momo prototype black steering wheel with a Porsche emblem plus a dp-Motorsport Zimmerman 930 extra long rear whale tail to cover the large intercooler have also been added..
The current owner bought the car in 2015. Since then he has driven the car only 6,000 miles. The vehicle odometer currently reads 130,148 miles. The vehicle comes with service records, a clean title and a Carfax which shows no accidents or damage reported. The air conditioner needs a recharge with a conversion to R134 refrigerant. There are some paint chips on the rear fenders in front of the wheel openings as well as below the front bumper. The plastic rear window is hazy. The original 5 speed manual transmission was retained by the owner can be purchased for $3,000.
This is a truly unique beast, which is very drivable at normal speeds. It is a head turner with its striking appearance and aggressive exhaust sound.
