Vehicle Description
1976 Porsche 912E
The 912 line from Porsche was manufactured from 1965 through 1969
and was a variant of the Type 911. Initially it outsold the 911
which would later become one of the most famous sports cars of all
time. In 1976 the 912E model was released for the US only and
featured a Porsche designed VW flat 4 motor. These cars were
nimble, compact, performance sports cars that also were very
economical when it comes to fuel. 2,100 were produced and they
filled the position of the 914 while Porsche was working on the 924
for release in 77. The 912E you see here is a great looking car
that runs just as well. It is painted a nice Black paint and the
wide body kit accentuates the originally body lines perfectly. The
kit along with the custom wheels (18x8-F, 18x10-R) were purchased
from Better Bodies out of California. They really add to the cars
already sporty look and sets it apart from other stock 912Es out
there. Although it is not currently in place the car also comes
with the whale tail to mount on the back. The glass is all in great
shape and has all new rubber for the windshield and rear
window.
Powering this car down the road is a 2.0L Type 4 flat 4 motor that
is original to the car. The E in 912E stands for Einspritzung which
is translated to injection. These motors were originally fuel
injected but this one has had that removed and replaced with dual
weber carbs with 40mm downdrafts. The original injection system
does come with the car should the next owner want to return it to
stock. The motor is paired with a 5 speed manual transmission that
shifts smoothly with no issues. The car has 4 wheels disc brakes
and is extremely fun to drive!
The interior is done in Black and has just been redone. It features
all new leather upholstery, new door panels, a new headliner and
new carpet. The bucket seats are comfortable and feature diamond
stitching in the middle. The dash has the original layout but has
been upgraded with a GPS speedometer and Pioneer AM/FM/CD
player.
This is an extremely fun car with some subtle modifications that
really make it look tough. If you have never had the opportunity to
drive a Porsche then you are missing out because they are in a
league of their own. Many people see the Porsche name and picture
dollar signs but this one is being offered up at a very reasonable
price so don't miss out!
