Description
It was at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September 1963 that Porsche unveiled its 901. Mass production began a year later, in September 1964, with the car being marketed as the 911, as Peugeot had asserted its exclusive right to use the central ‘0’ in its model names. The early versions were fitted with the famous flat-six engine, with a power output not exceeding 130 ch and a displacement limited to 2 litres. These were followed in 1967 by the ‘L’ version (for ‘Luxus’) and then the 911 S, whose power output was increased to 160 ch and which reached a top speed of 225 km/ h. Fuel injection made its debut in 1968 with the 911 E and its 170 ch. By 1969, the engine capacity had reached 2, 200 cm³ across all models, and the 911 S now delivered 190 ch. The final year of production was crowned by the launch of the now legendary 2. 7 RS…
The model we are offering is part of the second generation, the 911 ‘G’, launched in 1974. It is characterised by its black bellows-style bumpers, designed to absorb impacts and comply with US standards. The 3. 2-litre version launched in 1984 corresponds to the model described here, which was delivered new in France on 22 February 1984; It is presented in a beautiful Alpin Weiss paint finish with a perfectly original black velour interior. The condition is absolutely exceptional; we have numerous invoices, and the previous owner owned it for over ten years. He had the engine completely overhauled by a recognised specialist – for which we naturally have the invoice. The rear spoiler and the electric sunroof are among the factory options, for which we have a complete list.
It is very rare to find a 911 originally from France in such superb cosmetic and mechanical condition. It is ready to hit the road with no further costs to be expected and is undoubtedly a sound investment… offering equally certain driving pleasure…
