Ducktail, RS or 2.7. The Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2.7 has many nicknames today. What is unique is its significance: it was the fastest German production car at the time and was the first production model with a front and rear spoiler – the latter gave it the nickname “ducktail”. In doing so, Porsche started a trend in 1972 – that of the rear spoiler in production vehicles.

The vehicle in detail

Porsche began developing the 911 Carrera RS 2.7 around 50 years ago. «The 911 Carrera RS 2.7 was intended as a homologation vehicle. “It was supposed to be a very light, fast sports vehicle,” recalls Peter Falk, head of series vehicle testing at Porsche at the time. Even though the model variant is based on the 911, it will be a new base vehicle for racing and rallying with many technical innovations. The most powerful model of the first generation of the 911 is the first 911 to be given the nickname “Carrera” – the crowning achievement of the Porsche range. Weight, aerodynamics, engine and chassis are intensively worked on. Around 15 engineers developed the car from May 1972, including Tilman Brodbeck and Hermann Burst, as well as employees from production.
