The story of the 964 Turbo S Leichtbau begins with the car's foundation: the 964 platform and the technical advances that defined the third generation of the 911. A dedicated chapter then explores the IMSA Supercar Championship, the racing program that played a key role in bringing the Turbo S to life. Chapters on the engine, transmission, and suspension follow, examining the engineering that made this car extraordinary, while a look at Porsche's own media activities and the contemporary press shows how the car was presented and received in its day. To tell this story as completely as possible, the authors interviewed dozens of the people who were directly involved in its creation.
At the heart of the book is a catalogue raisonné, published here for the first time. Spanning 120 pages, it documents every 964 Turbo S Leichtbau that left Porsche's Exclusive Department in Zuffenhausen, the result of years spent tracking down the cars individually.
An appendix of historic documents, technical specifications, and an index of names and technical terms completes the volume. The book is presented in a protective slipcase, and the first edition is limited to 381 copies.
