This 1989 Porsche 911 Carrera coupe is a backdated RS tribute that was acquired four years ago by the current owner, an R Gruppe member. A repaint in black was performed in 2018 after the car had been modified with an aluminum decklid and sunroof-delete panel. Power is provided by a 3.6-liter flat-six, which was sourced from a 993 and received a rebuild in 2017. Shifting is through a G50 five-speed manual transaxle equipped with an OS Giken limited-slip differential, and additional modifications include Elephant Racing adjustable shocks, four-piston brake calipers, a roll cage, Cobra seats, and more as outlined below. The car received a GT Award from the R Gruppe and has been displayed at several Treffen events, as well as the 2017 Werks Reunion in Monterey, California.
