The tale of the Porsche 911 ducktail

Exactly 50 years ago to buy Carrera Tail Spoiler Porsche 911 online, Porsche unveiled a car with a design and engineering feature that looked like nothing ever seen before on a production road car. It didn’t take long for posters of it to adorn the walls of petrolheads of all ages the world over. Today – just as it did half a century ago – there are few sportscars that raise the temperature quite like the 911 Carrera RS 2.7 and its distinctive “ducktail” rear wing. It was the trailblazer for the dramatic aerodynamic rear wings that we have seen on the fastest Porsche road cars ever since – although in ducktail form itself, it has only been seen again briefly.

The original ducktail rear wing: 911 Carrera RS 2.7 (1972)

Today, we are used to distinctive aerodynamic additions to modern sportscars. But the ducktail – so nicknamed by the Porsche marketing department due to its characteristic shape – was truly radical. It was the world’s first rear spoiler on a production vehicle.

Part #930.512.023.00

This rear spoiler was reportedly attached to a 1987 Porsche 911 Carrera before being acquired by the seller circa 2013. The part is constructed of fiberglass and finished in black with a black lip. Porsche branding and part numbers are present on both the body and the lip

The Carrera RS 2.7 – the first Porsche to carry the ‘Carrera’ name since the 356 – was unveiled at the 1972 Paris Motor Show. Its 210hp engine and body and chassis adjustments meant that it weighed in at less than 1000kg. That light weight gives you a clue as to why the rear spoiler was added – its aim was to help keep this special 911 planted on the road, creating downforce by increasing the contact pressure on the rear wheels. The ‘Entenbürzel’ – as the ducktail was called in German – worked in tandem with front aerodynamic enhancements on this version of the 911, built to meet homologation rules.

Excellent communication and Porsche parts selection and knowledge

Adam & Chris was on top of my order from inquiry, purchase & delivery. Each of the 10 items purchased were checked for compatibility to my vehicle and suggested alternative part numbers & re-confirmed them with me when in doubt.

Kudos to their great team and to a flawless first transaction.

Excellent service and delivery. Just wish they had more parts available for our 1979 Porsche 924, but we’re impressed with how many OEM parts are still available.
