THE 2.7-LITER PORSCHE 911 Silver anniversary
The first of countless upgrades to Porsche's perennial 911 came in 1966 with the introduction of the 911S. Easily distinguished by its stylish alloy wheels, the 'S' featured a heavily revised engine producing 160bhp, the increased urge raised top speed by 10mph to 135mph. A lengthened wheelbase introduced in 1969 improved the 911's handling, and then in 1970 the air-cooled, 'flat six' engine underwent the first of many enlargements - to 2.2 liters.
In 1974 all 911 variants received the 2.7-liter unit, hitherto reserved for the Carrera, when the latter went to 3.0 liters. Although in non-Carrera tune the 2.7-liter unit made slightly less power than the old 2.4, it had been skillfully reworked to produce significantly more torque over a much wider rev range and offered noticeably improved acceleration. Coupled to a tolerance of low-lead fuel, vastly superior fuel consumption, and increased tank capacity, the new 911 proved superior to its predecessor in every way as a fast, long-distance tourer.
To celebrate Porsche's 25th anniversary of sports car production, a limited edition 911 Silver Anniversary model was introduced as a one-year-only model for 1975. These cars were heavily optioned, and all finished in the attractive Diamond Silver Metallic paint, with a cool plaid interior. They remain among the most collectible 911-models of the era. this 911 Porsche seems to have just came out of a time capsule with the condition overall just winning best on restored vehicle tells a little story about the condition overall,I give it a nine out of 10.
