The “Eleven” – the ultimate sports car icon
This 1978 Porsche 911 was recently re-imported from the US. It boasts the rare colour combination of cashmere beige paint and matching beige leather interior. The vehicle has in the past been re-painted, albeit not professionally, neither is this Porsche devoid of small dents. The rear wheel wells have been flared to give the car a Carrera look. Traces of a repaired accident damage are visible. The steering wheel and the leather trim are in a condition approriate for their age.
This 911 features a sunroof, power windows and a contemporary Toshiba radio. The original owners’ manual is included. The currently mounted wheels have not got the original rims.
On the engine side, we see the well-known six-cylinder boxer with a power output of 132 kW (180 hp).
The second generation of the Porsche 911 (G model) came on the market in 1973 as a successor to the Porsche 911 (original model). It was a 2+2-seater sports car and available as coupé, convertible (as of 1983), Targa and Speedster.
The 911 was equipped with the following engines: 2.7 to 3.0 litre petrol engine (150-188 hp) and, for the Carrera version, 2.7 to 3.2 litre petrol engine (200-231 hp). The last Porsche 911 G-model rolled off the production line in 1989.
This car is almost a must in any good garage!
