This 1987 Porsche 911 Carrera Targa is finished in iconic Guards Red and shows just 23,779 original miles, making it an exceptionally rare and highly desirable example from the classic G-body (3.2-liter) era of the Porsche 911. Meticulously preserved and completely original, this car remains in outstanding, collector-grade condition.
I am getting lots of questions about its originality! This is a all original Porsche Targa, except for radio in dashboard(original in the box) and ac that has been improved, also no tool kit, everything else is there. The car is an all matching number, as fare as the paint, I have pictures of the readings, it looks all fine according to our experience with many I have sold in the past. The mileage is accurate according to our findings. You simply drive it and touch every angle of the car, it is a 20k mile Targa. Please, if you are a serious buyer, understand this is the real deal. Please review all pictures, I can forward you more once we talk over a call, we must talk first before I send more details, hopefully we understand. We are a serious bespoke dealership, we do not play games! This car is for the right person looking for the right long term investment.
Originally was a part of a private collection in Naples, Florida, the car has been carefully maintained throughout its life. It is equipped with an upgraded Griffiths Air Conditioning Climate Control system along with a Kuehl High-Performance Evaporator, designed to deliver increased refrigerant flow and improved cooling efficiency. This system produces significantly greater BTU output per square inch than the factory setup, resulting in noticeably colder and more comfortable air while driving—an excellent upgrade for warm-weather enjoyment.
This exceptional 911 Carrera Targa is now exclusively offered by Euro Prestige Imports in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Often considered a “holy grail” configuration for collectors, this remarkably low-mileage survivor represents one of the most sought-after combinations from the 1984–1989 911 Carrera lineup. The Targa body style features Porsche’s signature removable roof panel, delivering open-air driving while maintaining the added security of integrated rollover protection. Complementing the design is the timeless Guards Red (Porsche color code 80K) exterior—one of the brand’s most iconic and celebrated colors, known for its vibrant appearance and unmistakable Porsche character.
Key Highlights
MileageApproximately 23,799 original miles (may increase slightly due to testing and service). This extremely low mileage for a nearly 40-year-old vehicle reflects minimal use and careful ownership. The car has always been garage-kept and meticulously cared for. It also retains all original books and the original Monroney window sticker from the date of delivery (see last photo).
ConditionA numbers-matching, all-original example presented in exceptional condition. The vehicle shows no accident history, rust, or major modifications. The paint, interior, and mechanical components remain beautifully preserved, reflecting the level of care typically seen in well-maintained collector vehicles.
Engine & Performance — Powered by the air-cooled 3.2-liter flat-six engine (producing around 217–227 hp depending on market/year tweaks), known for its smooth power delivery, distinctive boxer rumble, and engaging rear-engine dynamics. Paired with the desirable Getrag G50 5-speed manual transmission (introduced around 1987 for smoother shifting and better highway cruising compared to earlier 915 units).
Exterior Features — Classic 1980s 911 styling with the targa’s distinctive brushed stainless-steel rollover hoop, black targa top panel (removable for open driving), integrated fog lights, headlight washers, rear spoiler (likely the standard whale-tail or optional), and period-correct Fuchs-style or similar alloy wheels (often with black centers and polished lips).
Interior — Likely black leather (common with Guards Red exteriors), with supportive sport seats, analog gauges, classic Porsche ergonomics, and minimal wear given the low miles—everything from the dashboard to carpets should present as-new.
Driving Appeal — These cars are celebrated for balanced handling, raw analog feel, and timeless design. With such low miles and original condition, this one promises to drive like a time capsule while appreciating as a collector piece.
Euro Prestige Imports specializes in fine European automobiles (including Porsche), offering sales, brokerage, collection management, and maintenance—often by appointment only at their Charlotte-area locations. This ultra-low-mileage gem would command a premium in today’s market for 3.2 Carreras (where even higher-mile examples fetch strong prices, and sub-30k-mile originals often exceed six figures), emphasizing its rarity as a near-mint, unrestored survivor.
