This is a Note about the History of the 1968 911S from Porsche books = In 1968 US Porsche enthusiast would have to do without the experience of driving a 911 S however. It was no longer exported to the US because of emission standards. A 911 L was available instead, basically an S with a normal tune engine. In 1969 the S was however again available for the US. That year the S got six-inch-wide wheels and had 190 bhp in European spec, or 170, if you ordered the US version. Two other versions of the 911 were also available, the 125 bhp (or 110 for the US) 911 T, basicly a 912 with the six-cylinder engine, and the 911 E, the 'normal' 911. The 911 E had 160 bhp for Europe, and 140 for the US.
