Following on from the 356B Carrera 2, the 1963 356C version introduced a much improved braking system now employing all round Discs with which to slow the car down from its 125mph top speed. The new Carrera 2 now used an improved 1966cc engine which also gave it a quick 0-60 time of around 9 seconds.
Although the 356C Carrera 2 was a much improved version of the earlier cars, only 126 were produced before production ended in 1965.
