  • Rare and sought after 911 Turbo ‘Flachbau’ with distinctive factory-built slant-nose
  • Powered by a turbocharged 3.3-litre engine paired with a four-speed manual gearbox and a factory limited-slip differential
  • Finished in Grand Prix White over a special-order Can Can Red extended leather interior
  • Factory-fitted with electric heated sports seats, air conditioning, and sunroof

Despite initial resistance, Porsche became aware of a healthy customer demand for converted 930-generation 911s that resembled its 935 racers. The track-prepped version of the 911 was taking scalps all over the world’s race tracks in late-1970s, which didn’t go unnoticed by the Porsche cognoscenti. Some bold owners went as far as tasking aftermarket firms with carrying out a slant-nose cosmetic conversion. Getting wind of this, Porsche instigated its ‘Sonderwunsch’ (special requests) division to accommodate customers’ demands, without sacrificing the firm’s enviable reputation.

The 911 Turbo ‘Flachbau’ offered here is thought to be one of just 948 to receive the famous canted snout from new. The Porsche retains its factory-correct colour pairing of Grand Prix White over a special-order Can Can Red leather interior extending to the roof lining, with the exterior enhanced by white centres to the timeless Fuchs deep-dish wheels. The car was further optioned with sports seats and a limited-slip differential.

Built to 1986 model year specification and delivered new to Sweden, this coveted 911 is believed to have remained in Scandinavia for its whole life, and presents with 169,695 kilometres on its odometer at the time of cataloguing and having undergone a sympathetic refurbishment. Offered with a Porsche folio containing manuals and a leather tool roll, this 911 could complete any true Porsche aficionado’s collection.

Malgré sa réticence initiale, Porsche a pris conscience d'une importante demande des clients pour des 911 de génération 930 modifiées dans le style de la 935 de compétition. A la fin des années 70, la version course de la 911 remportait succès sur succès sur tous les circuits du monde, ce qui n'a pas échappé aux connaisseurs. Certains propriétaires audacieux sont allés jusqu'à demander à divers ateliers de préparation d'effectuer une transformation esthétique pour obtenir un capot plat. Apprenant cette tendance, Porsche a incité sa division "Sonderwunsch" [commandes spéciales] à satisfaire les demandes des clients sans sacrifier l'enviable réputation de la marque.

La 911 Turbo "Flachbau" proposée ici fait sans doute partie des 948 exemplaires qui ont été équipés d'origine du célèbre capot effilé. Cette Porsche présente ses teintes correctes d'usine avec sa carrosserie blanc "Grand Prix" et son intérieur doté d'une sellerie spéciale couvrant l'habitacle jusqu'au ciel de toit, en cuir rouge "Can Can". Les célèbres jantes Fuchs, ici à flasques blancs, réhaussent le tout. La voiture bénéficie également des options sièges sport et pont arrière autobloquant.

Produite aux spécifications du modèle 1986 et livrée neuve en Suède, cette 911 bien entretenue serait restée en Scandinavie toute son existence. A l'heure de rédiger ce catalogue le compteur affichait 169 695 km, et elle avait fait l'objet d'une discrète remise en état. Accompagnée d'un classeur Porsche comprenant des manuels et une trousse à outils en cuir, cette 911 peut magnifiquement compléter toute collection de passionné de Porsche.
