A truly unique piece of automotive history is hitting the auction block: the 1988 Porsche 911 TAG Turbo “AP87” by Lanzante. This ultra-rare machine is one of only 11 Porsche 911s specially converted to house the legendary 1.5L twin-turbo TAG-Porsche V6 Formula One engine—famously raced by Alain Prost in the 1986 and 1987 F1 seasons.
Powered by engine #051, which Prost drove at the German, Hungarian, and Japanese Grands Prix, the “AP87” delivers a thrilling 510 horsepower and a top speed of 200 mph. Built from a classic 930 Turbo platform, the car sheds 286 pounds compared to the stock model thanks to carbon fiber panels and other weight-saving measures. It rides on distinctive gold RUF wheels and features a precise six-speed manual transmission.
Finished in eye-catching Mintgrün with black leather and tartan accents inside, this restomod masterpiece blends Formula One racing heritage with Porsche’s iconic design. With just 311 miles since its completion and recent servicing by Lanzante in March 2025—including software and ECU updates—this car offers collectors a rare opportunity to own a motorsport legend reimagined for the road.
Estimated to reach up to $2.1 million USD, the Lanzante TAG Turbo 911 “AP87” is more than just a car—it’s a living tribute to racing history.
