Porsche 911 Carrera RS

Porsche 911 Carrera RS

Coupé, 1973

Highlights

  • One of only 1308 Touring models ever produced!
  • Matching colors!
  • Incredibly well documented!

A purist’s dream. Driver’s delight. And still cheeky after all these years. Long before carbon wings, touchscreen menus and ‘drift modes’, Porsche built a car that didn’t need gimmicks to go fast. The Carrera RS 2.7 wasn’t about lap times or Nürburgring bragging rights – it was about feel. And fifty years later, it still knows exactly how to make a driver smile. Light, alert, uncompromising, and full of mechanical charm. A car with nothing to prove, and everything to offer.

This example, chassis 911 360 1179, is an original Touring model (M472), one of just 1,308 ever built. Delivered on May 1st, 1973 by MAHAG München, it left the factory in Light Yellow (code 6262) – the same sunny hue it still wears today. Factory options include Recaro bucket seats in corduroy, a two-stage heated rear window, and an integrated antenna – because even a Rennsport car deserves a little civility.

The vehicle in detail

In 1978, this RS was registered for Group H racing by Frans Gross under Germany’s ONS motorsport authority. It competed in seven documented events between 1989 and 1990, a valuable history confirmed by its original ONS race pass and period photos – still with the car today. During the 2000s, it underwent a full six-year nut-and-bolt restoration under Porsche enthusiast Michael Eiden. Done to a very high standard, with integrity and respect for originality, the result is a car that looks crisp, runs beautifully, and never feels over-restored. Since then, it has lived a sheltered life between southern France and Belgium. The condition today is excellent. Its Light Yellow paint shows clean depth and uniformity. Panel fit is tight, gaps are consistent, and the interior is refreshingly correct: clean corduroy seat inserts, a tidy dash and a rare survivor in this condition. The car sits right. It feels honest. And importantly, it drives exactly as it should.

The file with this RS is just as impressive. The car comes with a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, full ONS documentation, registration papers from Germany and France, Belgian records, and a comprehensive photographic restoration log, all neatly tucked away in a Carrera RS-branded Motorfolios case. Exactly how you want it.

But the real story starts when you twist that left-hand ignition and fire up the 911/83 flat-six. It barks to life – dry, metallic, and eager. The clutch is light, the throttle snappy. With just 1075 kg to move, the car feels like a featherweight and focused. The five-speed gearbox shifts with mechanical precision, and the unassisted brakes offer feedback modern systems can only dream of. The steering talks constantly, the chassis responds to your mood, and the whole car feels like an extension of your best intentions. It’s not intimidating. It’s inviting. When it all clicks – when the revs rise, the road bends, and your grin widens – you realize this isn’t just a great classic. It’s a truly great car.

You drive it with fingertips and toes. It glides, it grips, it flows. There’s no filter between you and the machine. And honestly, isn’t that what it’s all about?
