The 968 was introduced in '92 as a model year '93 car. It had a completely revised body style, and was available as a coupe or cabriolet. Under the hood, the 3.0 litre 944S2 engine was enhanced with a patented variable valve timing system, called the VarioCam.
A total of 12,793 968's were produced by Porsche during its three-year lifetime, 4,389 of which were cabriolets. In the US, Porsche sold 2,417 coupes and 2,260 cabriolets - pretty close to an even split.
The coupe was available with the M030 sport package, which included heavier front springs, rear coil-over helper springs, bigger brakes, and larger sway bars.
