MARKET ANALYSIS
Widebody Cabriolet (1985 to 1989)

Known variously as the Turbo-Look, Super Sport or by its factory option code M491, the Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 Widebody Cabriolet paired open-top motoring with the full visual drama and hardware of the 930 Turbo. Offered as an option rather than a standalone model, the M491 package endowed the Cabriolet with the Turbo’s wide body shell, uprated brakes, and stiffer suspension, while retaining the naturally aspirated 3.2-litre flat-six from the standard Carrera 3.2 for a more linear, less complex driving experience. This specification delivered Turbo presence without forced induction and was available across Coupe, Targa, and Cabriolet body styles during the G-body era. In the Australian market, 3.2 Super Sport Cabriolets are particularly scarce and typically imported, attracting buyers who value the combination of widebody aesthetics, mechanical simplicity, and open-air appeal. Values are driven by gearbox (G50 premium), originality, documentation, body condition, and specification, with well-documented M491 cars increasingly regarded as top-tier Carrera 3.2 variants rather than a separate market.
