The 911 Carrera 3.0 holds a unique moniker in the history of the
911 brand. It successfully combined elements of the 2.7 RS and the
turbo-charged 930, of which the Carrera 3.0 shares an engine minus
the turbocharger. This European exclusive model was only sold in
1976 and 1977. Characteristics are similar to the 2.7 Carrera,
however the increased displacement pushed out 200 naturally
aspirated horsepower. This gave the engine an increased torque
curve, which allowed the Carrera 3.0 to out accelerate its 2.7
liter predecessor from 25-100mph by almost 4 seconds.
Being limited to the European Market, production numbers were
slender with approximately 3,750 examples built total being sold in
both targa and traditional coupe body styles. Handing and braking
are improved over U.S. models, being lower, lighter and having
stronger suspension components such as Koni shocks.
The 1977 Porsche 911 Carrera 3.0 Coupe featured here is one of only
896 left-hand drive coupe models built for 1977. Having been sold
new in Belgium, it has Belgian equipment (as mentioned on its
accompanying Porsche Certificate of authenticity) including a rear
wiper, rear fog light and rear defroster for safety. Further
distinguishment is gained from its lack of a sunroof, headlamp
washers, and Carrera 3.0 front and rear spoiler package. Having
lived most of its life in Europe until it was imported to the U.S.
a few years ago it is a rare sight to see here in the states. Per
the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity it still retains its
original engine and optional 5-speed gearbox. This magnificent 1977
Porsche 911 Carrera 3.0 Coupe comes finished in its factory
original color of Copper Brown Metallic with a Cork leather
interior, a rare and desirable combination that is further enhanced
by black Carrera side scripts and 15” Fuchs wheels. Showing only
80,354km (49,929 miles), this spectacular example recently
benefited from a $6,000 service and would make an excellent
addition to any premier collection. Classic cars have proven to be
among the most resilient and rewarding investments in recent years
with the Historic Automobile Group Index (HAGI) jumping 39% in 2013
and posting gains of 395-percent over the last 10-years. Ready to
