”They follow the change, we make it happen – Porsche”
Porsche enjoyed great success with the 356. The early days of the 911 were a bit disappointing so the 912 was born. To keep the price differential smaller, a less pumped-up version was needed. The 912 played an important role in Porsche’s history. This “accessible” model allowed Porsche to broaden its customer base, which was certainly necessary for its survival in the late 1960s.
The 912 was a nice combination of the previously developed four-cylinder engine from the 356 and the bodywork of the 911. The engine from the 912 was a lot lighter than the 911 and that resulted in good weight distribution, exactly what the 911 had some problems with at the time. For example, a new 911 owner was sent, between noises, to his landscaper to fill the boot with tiles. The 912, on the other hand, was known for its good handling.
Optically, the 912 looks similar to the 911, under the skin, on the other hand, there is a change. Equipped with a 1.6 litre with 95hp. Then you may be thinking: is that all? Yes, but surprisingly fast. Its nimbleness makes up for a lot.
Although production of the Porsche 912 stopped in 1969, its legacy lives on. Today, the Porsche 912 is cherished by collectors and enthusiasts for its classic design, driving dynamics and the uniqueness of its four-cylinder engine. Its place in Porsche history as a more accessible sports car has cemented its status as an icon.
Our example was born in 1967. She spent her early years in California and Sweden before finding her place in the Netherlands. Over the years she has been well looked after and has been neatly restored. The previous owner upgraded the brake system and boosted the engine to 110 hp. A highly sought-after and unique 912 in good condition. In this respect, an expert in the game of seduction.
