Vehicle Description
It is CPR's privilege to offer this 1974 Porsche 911 Carrera MFI
painted in Grand Prix White over a Midnight Blue/Black
interior.
This example is one of 1,024 Carrera MFIs built in 1974 and is car
number 422. The Carrera MFI is largely regarded as one of the most
collectible G-body Porsche cars you can own. They are essentially a
continuation 1973 Carrera RS built on a G-body that shares the same
911/83 RS engine and 915 transaxle. The Carrera MFI slightly
outperforms the Carrera RS 2.7 with a more rigid tub and the same
curb weight as a Carrera RS 2.7 Touring.
The car was imported to the United States in 2012, where it has
remained. CPR Classic has last offered this example in 2018. The
car has spent the last two years in the hands of a Los
Angeles-based enthusiast.
Upon arrival at CPR Classic in May of 2020, this MFI underwent
extensive preparation and reconditioning. The paint received a
meticulous correction to the highest of standards, and CPR is
currently in the process of restoring the undercarriage to include
new undercoating, plating work, and fresh paint on the bottom of
the tub. The Midnight Blue and Black interior received a thorough
detail, and new door pocket lids and a carpet kit are being
installed. Keen eyes may notice the door panels and knee bolsters
are a very dark shade of blue from the factory.
This Carrera MFI is well-documented: included is the car's
Certificate of Authenticity, all importation documentation, and its
most recent service history. In early 2020, over $32,000 was spent
on suspension work and a major engine service at Workshop 5001 in
Los Angeles, CA.
The Carrera MFI is a spectacular car that has become very
collectible in today's Porsche market. It is an excellent and
appreciating alternative to the 1973 Carrera RS 2.7 cars, which
regularly trade today for $700,000+. If you are seeking a
high-performance 911 that is beginning its rise and has already
been sorted, this is a must-consider example.
