This example was delivered new in Beaumont Texas and resided with its original owner in Beaumont, for over 30 years. The car traveled just under 28,000 miles with its first owner and then was sold through a high-line exotic dealer in Texas to its second and most recent owner in Colorado. The car has spent the past 5 years in Colorado being meticulously pampered and prepared for concours events. Just before being shipped to CPR the car won its class at the Colorado Concours d’Elegance by scoring a 231.1 out of 240. The car now shows just over 32,000 original miles.
This 911 Carrera remains wholly original in terms of its exterior paint outside of a very small blend that was performed below the passenger headlight to remedy a light cosmetic imperfection. The area painted was less than 10 inches in diameter. Photos of the work are available and can be provided upon request. The car wears a clear bra over the entire front end to protect the factory original paint. The interior is original and immaculate. The seat bolsters and bottoms are nearly perfect and the interior remains unmodified in all capacities.
This example was beautifully appointed from the factory including the following options:
-158 Cassette-radio Blaupunkt Reno SQR 46
-341 Central locking system
-348 Fuchs wheel centers painted white
-425 Rear window wiper
-454 Automatic speed control
-491 Turbo-look
-533 Alarm
-650 Sun-moon-roof
The M491 factory-wide body Carreras from the mid-80s are exceedingly rare cars. This example being a G50 model is the best combination. Production numbers of M491 cars are a mere fraction of the total production of 930s. If you love the iconic aesthetic of the 930 but would prefer a normally aspirated engine and a 5-speed transmission this is a must-consider example. This 911 Carrera is ready for immediate delivery worldwide and can be unloaded straight from the transport and placed on a Concours lawn. It is one of the most meticulously maintained original 911s we have had in inventory in recent memory. Regardless of what you are searching for, if you fancy a rare 911 that will always turn heads and be a hit at shows and Cars and Coffee events, look no further.
