Additional Info: The 3000S is essentially a convertible version of the 3000M. There are however a number of differences to the interior trim, windscreen, instrument panel, the design of almost all body panels (including the removal of the bonnet vents, redesigned doors etc and the addition of a boot/boot lid). Like the 3000M there are some 3000S Turbo cars with 230bhp which can get to 60 in around 5.5 secs and also 3000S Turbo SE (Special Equipment) versions as well. |
