Options not shown on Hood sticker

Wingman911 · 06-27-2020, 08:53 AM

I have a 1986 911 Targa. When looking at the build sticker under the front hood the only options shown is CO2, I have many other options, headlight washer, rear wiper, central locking front fog lights, and some others. Is this because the cars being built had these as standards

C02 might be a group of options, I don't know what it means. Mine has a C10 code and I don't remember ever knowing what that was, either. The L999 I believe is a paint to sample code, as well.

Perhaps this was some special thing with everything special ordered and no specific notes given? It's a mystery, Scoob...

I believe C02 is Equipment for US.

CO2 is California emissions,I believe. Was the car originally sold in CA?

Mine too. My cdn 86 has one group code for Cdn car. I had to go to Porsche for the options.

Just looked it up. The C02 code is "Equipped with a catalytic converter".

C02 is 49 state emissions, C03 is California.

Is it possible the ink has worn off? Most of the options you speak of were certainly options at the time, not standard.

Also, L999 is paint to sample I think.

Mea culpa, I think you're right.

Headlight washers and fog lights were standard for 3.2 Carreras, maybe central locking by '86 as well. Rear wiper would have been an option unless it is a turbo-look.

Would you explain? Cdn? What group code do you have?

My car has the same sticker in the Maintenance Book so nothing was rubbed off.

No tail on the Targa but a wiper which was an option not shown on the sticker

The Color code is a special paint, so I was curious how this car was built.

It was shipped to a Porch dealer in Tennessee then transferred to a dealer in New Jersey who I bought it from.
