Suggestion · Original poster
Sort of like that, but with a more 993 style bumper and if you replaced pop up lights with one which are similar to boxster ones.

Suggestion
He's had them changed since buying it but Majordad's 993 race car used to have 996 headlights on it, could be a similar conversion (not sure who does it though, can't imagine it's popular).

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.
22 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

It was a really weird one, the front end was very different. It was a A reg, green, the front lights were more "modern" looking, almost 996 like. The rear end was i think late model 964 like. Was a convertible.
Any ideas? Special edition of some sort
No light were different. Definitely not a usual 911. I think it may have been a 993 rear actually, but the front was more early boxster shape and slanted downwards.

993 Flatnose
Thats not a 993, its a 964.
You're right Molly, it came up on the search for a 993 Flatnose. I should check harder!

Its doing my head in now, was in kensington
If it was A reg, that's 1983/84. Maybe it was a 964 that age, and they had fitted a headlamp upgrade to HIDs or projectors, something like a Singer, or this
Could have been a newer Porsche with a personalised A plate though.

The only thing I can think of that gets anywhere near that description is the Panamericana concept!

If you get that, make the lights not round but flush with the body, make it Convertible and then give it a rear end like from a 993 gt2 with a slightly smaller spoiler it was basically that. Slightly light surf green.
Thats aboit as accurate as i can describe it. Doing my head in now!!

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
