The vehicle in detail

In 1974, Porsche followed up its legendary Carrera RS with the updated range-topping Carrera. Its debut coincided with the launch of the new G-series body for the 911, which included revised bumpers, a shorter hood, and other upgrades. Carrera models featured wider fenders to accommodate larger Fuchs wheels, but their most important distinction was the impressive 210-horsepower 2.7-liter flat six-cylinder from the previous Carrera RS, with Bosch mechanical fuel injection. New smog and fuel-efficiency regulations at the time precluded these 2.7 “MFI” Carreras from being imported to the United States. Not only forbidden fruit in America, the Carrera 2.7 MFI was also a rarity in the rest of the world, with production limited to 1,633 total units in all body styles.Finished at Porsche’s Zuffenhausen plant on 1 January 1974, this Carrera 2.7 MFI is believed to be one of 631 Targas built during the brief two-model year production run. Adding further to the car’s desirability, the exterior was finished from the factory in the quite uncommon color of Lime Green (N8). The Targa was additionally equipped with a Blaupunkt radio, raised driver’s seat, fog lamps, black Carrera script on the doors, and black front hood stripes with 911 script. In 1991, the car was relocated to Italy, and later in 2021 a comprehensive restoration was performed by Marrocco Motorsport, marque specialists based south of Rome. Soon after completion, the Porsche was sold to a prominent German collector who used the car very sparingly during his period of ownership. As a result, the vehicle shows in excellent condition today and continues to be powered by its numbers-matching engine. Remarkably well-presented inside and out, this 911 Carrera 2.7 MFI is undoubtedly one of the most compelling examples of its kind to emerge at auction, offering an alluring opportunity for even the most discerning marque collector.
