Vehicle Description
Celebrating the 25th year of the 911 and offering a suitable
farewell to the legendary 3.2-liter Carrera flat-six, Porsche
released 300 coupes and 200 cabriolets as special anniversary
edition 911s. This example, chassis number ending in 170930, is an
exceptional no-storied example that shows slightly more than 7,200.
Its paint and interior are near perfect and the car presents itself
as a sub-1000-mile 911. Thirty years after that Anniversary, one
can tell this Cabrio has been meticulously maintained. It's
everything one would expect from a true time capsule.
The G-Series 3.2 Carreras are wonderful 911s to drive in every way,
from the purr of the 3.2 Carrera to the shifts with the
buttery-smooth G50 gearbox. While the drive train and mechanicals
are similar to the non-Special Edition examples, most of the
upgrades were inside the cockpit and aesthetically they were a
notch above the normal Carreras, as one would expect from a company
celebrating a quarter-century of production of a single car model.
Exclusive to the 25th Anniversary Carreras were options such as the
Silk Grey Leather interior with black accents, color-to-match Fuchs
wheels, a leather-upholstered center console, the outside air
temperature gauge, a short shifter, CD holder, and of course the
Anniversary badging depicting their rarity.
But disregard for one moment the fact that this is a special
anniversary edition. From the overall condition alone, this is one
of the best Carreras we've been fortunate to have in a very long
time. The next caretaker will be a very proud owner.
