This 1991 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 has just 19k kilometers (~11,800 miles) and was modified by noted German tuning house Koenig Specials for the Japanese market. This example was the first of eight 964-based Carreras that were given the Koenig treatment, which included fitting a supercharger to the 3.6L flat-six. Power is sent to all four wheels through a 5-speed manual transmission, and additional modifications include Koenig-specific bodywork, 17? 5-spoke Modia wheels, Recaro sport seats, Momo steering wheel, and a VDO boost gauge. The car was recently imported and is sold with a clean Pennsylvania title and correspondence from Walter Koenig verifying its authenticity.

Though the origins of the company date to 1974, it was not until the late 1970s/mid 1980s that Koenig Specials began to gain notoriety as one of Germany's more outlandish tuning houses. It was involved in regular collaborations with stylist Vittorio Strosek and forced induction specialist Franz Albert. As with other large tuning houses, Koenig-modified cars are delivered with their own VIN number.

Deep-bolstered Recaro Classic power sport seats replace the factory 911 items and show well for their age aside from some minimal wear on the driver's bolsters.
Part of the Koenig conversion included adding a non-intercooled Albrex supercharger to the factory 3.6L flat-six. Though performance figures are unavailable for this particular car, similar setups with a supercharger are said to be good for more than 300 horsepower.
Correspondence between Walter Koenig and the selling dealer can be seen above and confirms that the car was manufactured for the Japanese market.
