Something I find puzzling is, I sometimes see numbers of Supersports made for the UK market - in this case an advert from Hexagon:
"In 1984, Porsche introduced the M491 option. Officially called the Supersport in the UK, it was commonly known as the "Turbo-look". It was a style that resembled the Porsche 930 Turbo with wide wheel arches and the distinctive "tea tray" tail. It featured the stiffer turbo suspension and the superior turbo braking system as well as the wider turbo wheels. Sales of the Supersport were particularly strong for its first two years in the United States because the desirable 930 was not available"
Only 75 Cars were produced for the UK market "" believed to be made up of 37 Convertible, 35 Coupe and 3 Targa.
Take the SS Targa - I think there is at least three of us with one on this forum, plus the car for sale above, and I have seen several more for sale in the last six months, so im a bit baffled by the numbers quoted.
