    Indeed. My own 911 is rather less rare, but nevertheless still rather beautiful, too (to my eyes anyway!):

    I have a 1986 Carrera 3.2. Ive heard of the CS before. What exactly was the difference between the CS and regular models? Were they strictly coupes?

    The CS was basically a raw, "less is more" version of the standard car. Most of the creature comforts were removed to save weight and the engine and chassis were tuned for the track. Coupe only - no point doing that exercise on a cab or targa, due to lack of stiffness. They are rare: I think they only made 3 or 400 of which around 50 were RHD. Values are accordingly high - a 3.2 CS is to a regular 3.2 as a 964RS is to a regular 964.
