Vehicle Description
This 1975 Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe is a very desirable "Rest of the World" example that is fitted with the same 210 BHP 2.7L six-cylinder (type 911/83) engine that powered the 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS. This car is one of just 508 units produced for the 1975 model year. When it left the factory, it had Silver Metallic paint and a Black Leatherette interior. Additional options included Windscreen Washer System, "S" Brakes, Blaupunkt Radio Bamberg w/ Cassette Player and 2 Loudspeakers, Tinted Rear Window w/Defroster, Carrera Script on Doors - Black, Black Roofliner, Bilstein Shocks instead of Boge, 5-Speed Transmission, Electric Sunroof and Dunlop Tires. The original engine (#6650478) and transmission (#850444) remain in the car today making this a very rare, matching numbers Porsche.
This Porsche was originally sold in Europe and then exported to Japan in 1978 where it remained until 2013 when it was imported to the USA. Upon import to the USA, this car was quickly sold by a Monterey, CA based dealer to a collector in Santa Barbara who began a restoration. Two years later the Porsche still wasn't finished and it was traded to European Collectibles against a 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS that was fresh and ready to go. Since December 2015, European Collectibles has been finishing the restoration to exacting standards with the help of Ryan Snodgrass's excellent book, Carrera 2.7. It is being offered in excellent condition and ready for a new owner to enjoy.
