A question about the M491 option

Did a limited slip transmission come with this option?


In 1984, Porsche also introduced the M491 option. Officially called the Supersport, it was commonly known as the "Turbo-look". It was a style that resembled the Porsche 930 Turbo with wide wheel arches and the distinctive "tea tray” tail.

LSD was not part of the M491 option but you could get it as a separate option. At least my 84 and 87 Turbo Looks were optioned in this manner.
