Vehicle Description
This is the vintage exotic so many of us long for. A 1970 Porsche
911E Targa offers many of the delicate design touches of the
first-generation 911, and then adds power to the package. So when
it's presented in an interesting and correct factory color, this is
an open top dream car.
The 911's shape is legendary, and that's why there is so much
appreciation for a car like this. The narrower bodies, tidy
proportions, and elegant simplicity showcase the iconic shape in
its purest form. Porsches have always been high-quality machines,
and this one continues that tradition today with doors that open
and close effortlessly and exacting panel gaps. We even suspect a
small fortune was spent on re-spraying the factory-correct pastel
blue paint. It has the kind of luster that begs for the sunshine,
and that's exactly what a Targa model is expected to do.
Enthusiasts easily identify this rarer open top model by its
stainless steel hoop at the B-pillar and wrap-around rear window.
Chrome was still in fashion in 1970, even in Germany, so this 911
retains its slender bumper trim, polished headlight rings, bright
windshield surround, and those great vents that signify this is an
early 911 that wanted to stay connected to another icon, the 356.
And speaking of icons, the Fuchs wheels are a true Porsche
hallmark.
The great thing about the air-cooled 911 era is that the moment you
climb inside, they all have a familiar feeling like a close-knit
family. The driver-oriented layout is engineered to make sure
everything is within easy reach. Porsche's race-ready sensibilities
means the tachometer is directly in front of the driver. The rest
of the instruments surround this in their own clearly marked pods
to give you a comprehensive view of what's going on with the
engine. You view all of this through an upgraded Lecarra sports
steering wheel. The targa top fits snugly, and easily stores in the
carpeted trunk when you want the wind-in-your-hair driving
experience. And because this 911 will be open to the world, the
seats, carpeting, door panels, and whole interior is looking dark
and crisp to make sure everyone sees this icon at its best.
The 2.2-liter flat-six has that unmistakable tone even at idle, and
so you love one that looks well maintained and fires up with ease
like this one does. This car is all about getting in, turning the
key, and instantly start having fun. The motor was built to be
driven like a performance machine, and Porsche made sure you had
the control of a five-speed manual so you were an integral part of
getting every last ounce of performance out it. The 911's spirited
fully independent suspension and four-wheel disc brakes are all
part of a unique sporting package that truly helped it earn its
motto of, "There is no substitute."
This car is complete right down to its toolkit. It's an example of
open air European motoring at its finest. So now is the time to
fulfill the promise you made to yourself. Call today!!!
