This one-of-a-kind Porsche 911 Turbo is the most luxurious car from the 1980s. Previously owned by the vibrant and charismatic founder of Hawaiian Tropic, this vehicle was meticulously crafted by Porsche’s elite Special Wishes department, known for its no-expense-spared approach. This vehicle seamlessly integrates slant-nose bodywork with classic performance, featuring a turbocharged and intercooled 3.3-liter flat-six engine, a four-speed manual transmission, and a distinctive whale-tail spoiler. The Hawaiian Topic bikini tour bus pulls up in the last scene of Dumb and Dumber. The windows are open, and the “Hallelujah Chorus” starts to play as Harry and Lloyd sit on the side of the road, sad. This beautiful 1984 911 Turbo flashback, which is also called a slant nose, in bright red on black, looks a lot like that one. It can be bought right now on Bring a Trailer, which is part of Hearst Autos. Porsche’s Sonderwunsch department built it just for the person who made the Hawaiian Tropic. Ron Rice got the most of his money. In the 1980s, he started the biggest sunscreen company in the United States. For his first batch of sunscreen, the high school chemistry teacher used a trash can. His business grew so much that he could give his Lamborghini Countach to the production of Cannonball Run. Hawaiian Tropic may have given Rice the idea for a one-of-a-kind 911. Hawaiian Tropic also funded Paul Newman’s red Porsche 935, which came in second place at Le Mans in 1979. “Special Wishes,” or Sonderwunsch, is the most exclusive part of Porsche. Don’t worry about matching the key fobs to the color of your Cayenne’s paint. The Sonderwunsch team can handle requests like making the one-of-a-kind 911 Classic Club Coupe, which is a 996-chassis copy of a 1998 GT3 Touring that never existed. Well over a million dollars. Fewer than 1,000 slant-nose 911 Turbos were made, and some of those were changed by Porsche after they left the plant. Some people don’t like how the round headlights on Porsches have been replaced with a pointed front end that looks like it came from the 1980s, but the style is famous. It’s also possible for the specs to be very different because most of these cars were custom-made. This one has hand-made front fenders and is painted a deep, rich metallic red to stand out. Inside, there are standard black leather seats, and you can add sports seats and an electric power sunroof if you want to. The 3.3-liter flat-six turbocharged engine made 300 horsepower when it was brand new and was made for the European market. The back has a stable differential with four speeds that can be manually managed. Even though Porsche 911 Turbos from that time were a lot more difficult to drive than today’s ultra-capable Executive Express, the new Michelin tires on this car should make the ride interesting and exciting. With 48,000 kilometers on the odometer and a full makeover in the last 10 years, this is the perfect 911 Turbo for lounging in the sun. The lucky customer won’t be stupid enough to pass up this one-of-a-kind Porsche, even if Harry and Lloyd sent the bus to the next town in error. The sale ends on March 12.
