Porsche quiz (#3)

[JagJob]

After two difficult quizzes (the second one is not yet resolved) I have a few questions about these Porsches. These have to be easier!



This Heidelberg Historic (Germany) entry should be a 1973 911 Carrera Targa according to the list. But I have never seen a car with those side air scoops... Was this a factory option...? Any idea?
UPDATE: probably a rebuilt targe

---

This car was parked near the Solitude Revival hillclimb. It is a 1980s 911 Cabrio. In those days, you could order the 911 Turbo Cabriolet or the 911 Carrera Cabriolet. And now the confusing part, you could order a Carrera Cabriolet with Turbo-look! It has never become clear to me how to distinguish a Carrera with Turbo-look from a true Turbo Cabriolet... Can you tell me what this is?

---

And the last one for now. We saw this car in Austria. It is based upon the 993, but is this a Gemballa, or just a factory car with a massive wing and, skirts and a front lip spoiler.
UPDATE: probably a 993RS with RSR spoiler.

Thanks!

1. I think those vents were fitted to the flat nose Turbo models.
2. I reckon that's a Carrera cabriolet, the rear arches don't look flared enough to be a Turbo.
3. I don't believe that to be a genuine Gemballa, the spoiler looks like it's from a 993 GT2. Don't hold me to this though.

3. Carrera RS.

Sure? The one with Club Sport package? It has a dual plane rear aerofoil, but I don't know what is ment by a "front splitter". That were the distinguishing features of a Club Sport package as far as I can find out.

1. It looks like a very early Porsche 930? It seems a mis-mash of parts that I don't think were seen really until a few years later on. The Targa roof, 930 front bumper, Flat-Nose side vents. Could well of been some sort of development car!

2. Simply unless you see the engine or badges it's very hard to tell, the whole point of a turbo styled extra is the fact it looks like a turbo.

3. Has to be a 993 GT2 or replica shirley?

993 GT2 had the bolt on flared arches.

To me that looks like a 993RS with an RSR rear wing.

You'd need a poloshirt/chino wearer to say for sure however.

I think your right with the RS and wing!

3. Not a GT2, as no bolted on arches. Its not far off an RS ifs it a copy

That's not a 930 front bumper, it looks like an RSR copy or something. It's just a tarted up, but bloody awful looking, early Targa.

I still maintain that it's not a turbo, it just doesn't look quite right.

A half arsed one, but yeah I'd agree.
