The powerhouse of this car is a 1.5-liter twin-turbocharged TAG-Porsche V6 engine, personally crafted by the legendary Porsche engineer Hans Mezger. This engine was driven by F1 champion Alain Prost during the 1986 and 1987 seasons. To pay homage to this F1 championship engine, numbered #051, the car is codenamed AP87. Based on the classic 930 Turbo model, this vehicle can unleash up to 510 horsepower and achieve a top speed of 200 miles per hour, all while being 286 pounds lighter than the original specifications.
In terms of appearance, this car showcases an eye-catching mint green finish, while the interior combines elegant black leather with classic Scottish tartan, making this creation not only a technical marvel but visually stunning as well. The vehicle has undergone extensive lightweight modifications, including the replacement of body panels with carbon fiber, a six-speed manual transmission, and dazzling gold RUF rims, having only clocked 311 miles since its customization.
Notably, Lanzante just completed a full service on this car in March 2025, which includes the latest software updates and ECU upgrades. The AP87 has transcended the typical retro modification category, transforming into a racing legend reborn for the road. It presents collectors with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to truly incorporate the glorious history of an F1 car, all wrapped in the classic silhouette of a Porsche.
