Question for Porsche fanatics

[FujimiLover]

One of my favorite car movies is No Man's Land. It stars D.B.Sweeney and Charlie Sheen. It is about a rookie cop who infiltrates a Porsche mechanics shop that has been accused of stealing Porsches.

The best scene in the movie, is where Billy and Ted, yes that's their names, steal a silvery-blueish Porsche 911? They then get chased by the "competition" in a Cadillac and blue Chevy Camero. I'm guessing it's a Cadillac.

Question is, what year is that silvery Porsche? And what's the color used? Also, what kit is there of that model?

A great place to info about Movie cars is IMCDB.ORG, taking a quick peak at the websites page for that movie there where alot of Porsche's in the movie.

Thank you. I found the site and looked it up, but didn't give me much help. All it said was 911 (930). I did not see what year it was. That black slope-nose was pretty sweet too!

Porsche 930 AKA Porsche Turbo probably 81-86 there wasn't much difference between them.

Since the slant nose hit 81 and the film was released in 87.

Tamiya makes a kit

The regular 930 might go back a little further.

Tamiya

Revell

Proabably Fujimi.

You shouldn't have and trouble finding a kit since that was probably the most publically visable and publicly noticed 911 ever.

I'm not well versed in Porsche, but after watching the clip on you-tube I was certain this kit would probably be what you are looking for.

Fujimi's Porsche 930 Turbo Enthusiast kit.

On the same note, Tamiya re-released a 1988 Porsche Turbo as a snap fit kit, that if time is taken and detailed it looks fantastic:

Looking for the paint might be a bit tougher, but I bet a google search with the year of 87-88 might get you something.

Good Luck!
