    That's a beautiful green! Absolutely love that color.

    But it doesn't look like a 400 Superamerica to me. In addition to the slant rear, I thought they also had a more narrow nose and slant headlights. Am I missing something?

    Hi Bill,

    You may be thinking of the earlier cars (late 1950s) which were 410 Superamericas and generally meet the guidelines you've outlined. I say generally because within the 3-series run of 410 Superamericas not all cars were identical.
    The car pictured is one of the 400 Superamericas, the model that followed the 410s and took the Superamerica model into the 1960s.
    Within the 2-series run of 400 Superamericas, one of the recurring body styles was known as an Aerodinamico Coupé and that is what 3097SA, pictured above, is bodied as.

    Best Regards,
    Dave

    Wasn't that Superamerica one of Enzo's personal cars? I believe I read that on the information board of that specific car. I too have been to Rev's multiple times. One of the best Porsche collections I have ever seen!
