Power output is 305 hp at 5,400 rpm, with maximum torque of 500 Nm at around 3,000 rpm. Drive is delivered through a 6-speed manual transmission with a reinforced clutch and a limited-slip differential with 75% lock.

Rare Porsche 968 Turbo S: History of the Example
This car was ordered directly from the Porsche Racing Department by Czech tennis player Helena Suková. The car was completed on July 19, 1993, in Zermatt Silver Metallic color with a black interior.
Until 2014, the car remained in Suková’s ownership. In 2014, it was purchased with an odometer reading of 29,600 km. In 2024, the odometer showed 30,367 km.
The car is accompanied by service documentation, a tool kit, spare parts, and a service history. Due to its extremely limited production run, the model is considered one of the rarest in Porsche’s modern history.
