Der Vater
Da gibt es schon eine sehr ausführliche Geschichte über die 93er Porsche 911 Turbo S Leichtbau, hier. Und es gibt auch schon eine feine Sammlung dieser seltenen Stücke, hier. Es ist beides beachtenswert. In der Sammlung findet sich auch dieser «Leichtbau», Chassis-Nummer #479044, damals war er noch in Schweden. Und schon damals wurde angegeben, dass der erste Besitzer des Fahrzeugs der Vater der deutschen Tennis-Ikone Steffi Graf war, dann wird das so wohl stimmen. Hier freuen wir uns über neue Bilder.

Auktion: RM Sotheby’s, Miami 2025, Schätzpreis 800’000 bis 1’000’000 Dollar, mit diesen Informationen: «Of the limited run, the early example offered here was delivered new in July 1992, according to the accompanying Porsche certificate. Finished by the factory in Polar Silver Metallic, which is believed to be a special-order color, over a Black leather interior, this example notably presented the already pared-back Turbo S Lightweight in its purest form. Configured without airbags, power steering, or air conditioning, the Porsche stays true to the model’s original, hardcore guiding principles. It is claimed that just 14 cars were completed in this lightest of Lightweight specifications. Per the records of none other than Sprenger himself, who has notably signed the underside of the trunk lid, this car is recorded as the 44th Turbo S Lightweight produced. Sprenger writes that it was first owned in Germany by Mr. Peter Graf, the father of 22-time major tennis singles title winner Steffi Graf. This car later found a new owner in Japan before being acquired by the consignor in Sweden in late 2019. Accompanying invoices (available to view on file) dated to October 2021 detail restoration work and a recommissioning carried out by marque expert Boxer Motor & Klassische Automobile of Dotternhausen, Germany. A reupholstered interior, rebuilt and painted brake calipers, refurbished wheels, plus a tune of the engine contributed to a €32,965 total, or over $34,000. Notably retaining its matching-numbers 3.3-liter flat-six and five-speed manual transmission, this example also presents in its beautiful factory color combination. Displaying 46,946 kilometers (~29,171 miles) at the time of cataloguing.»
