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 the ‘short’ hood, new impact-resistant front and rear bumpers, a non-reflective filler strip between the taillights, unobtrusive side rockers, and a front spoiler that improved high-speed stability.

The vehicle in detail

The 1974 Carreras features the rear duck-tail spoiler found on the 1973 Carrera RS and staggered (6” x 15” front and 7” x 15” rear) Fuchs forged alloy wheels. 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. Instead, US-spec Carrera 2.7 models were given the significantly less powerful 2.7-liter flat-six from the 911 S. 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 1,026 total units for 1974.

This rare Carrera MFI has been fully restored cosmetically and mechanically to concours perfection by nationally recognized professionals and is turn-key ready for its next owner. It underwent a bare metal restoration and was repainted in its original color of Grand Prix White by East Autobody in Orange, California. Porsche specialist, Autobahn Interiors, reupholstered the interior in a rare shade of Midnight Blue leatherette. Only the highest quality OEM parts were used in the restoration.

Renowned engine builder, Aase Motors in Fullerton, California, rebuilt the original engine (Type 911/83) to the factory specification of 2.7 RS, in February of 2021, at the cost of $32,000. At the same time, Aase Motors rebuilt the transmission with new gears, synchros, and bearings, at a cost of $9,625.

Black Forest Automotive in San Diego, California, performed a corner balance, aligned the front and rear, adjusted wheel bearings, caster, camber, and toe settings, as well as centering the steering wheel, in July 2021.

Remarkably restored inside and out, this 911 Carrera 2.7 MFI is a rare find anywhere in the world but especially coveted in the United States, with its high-output, Euro-spec, fuel-injected engine. The sale will include, a Certificate of Authenticity, manuals, restoration records documenting the recent work, tool kit, jack, space saver spare, and tire inflator. It is undoubtedly one of the most compelling examples and is an extraordinary opportunity for any collector.
