Introduction
Paul Wright
A key feature of the Supersport package is the widebody design, giving the car its iconic stance.
The 1989 Porsche 911 Supersport Targa stands out as a final-year model of the 3.2 Carrera series before the transition to the 964. Equipped with the M491 "Turbo-look" (Supersport in the UK) package, it combines the aggressive widebody design of the 930 Turbo with the naturally aspirated 3.2-litre flat-six engine, paired with a smooth 5-speed G50 manual transmission. The Supersport package also includes upgraded suspension and larger brakes from the 930, ensuring excellent handling to match the performance. The Targa body style adds to the car’s allure, blending open-top driving enjoyment with more rigidity than a full convertible. Its combination of the Turbo-look body, improved performance features, and collectable rarity makes this model highly sought after by enthusiasts. As one of the last in the 3.2 Carrera line-up, the 1989 Targa Supersport is a timeless example of Porsche engineering and design.
This stunning example, which is in excellent condition, and has benefited from a top-end engine rebuild less than ~8,000 miles ago. It comes to market after ~5 months with our vendor, coming with its original service book, two keys and a current MOT valid until 19.09.2025, and is a genuine UK "C16" example.
