Porsche avoided excessive sound-deadening and undercoating, and eliminated conveniences such as power windows, power steering, air-conditioning, and rear seats. Fiberglass-reinforced carbon composite materials were used for the doors, front lid, and rear spoiler, while thin glass, bucket seats, and RS door panels rounded out the package. The Leichtbau weighed just 2,844 lbs., about 430 lbs. less than a standard Turbo.
Beyond these changes, the Turbo S was lowered 40 mm, the suspension was tuned to Carrera RS settings, and an aluminum front brace was installed to provide stable handling. The new Porsche also benefited from a reinforced, seam-welded body shell, upgraded brakes, and 18″ Speedline modular wheels wearing Dunlop Sport ZR-rated tires.
