Porsche 911 Carrera RS

Few air-cooled 911s carry the same presence and historical significance as the 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2.7. Developed as a homologation special that blurred the line between road car and race car, the RS remains one of the defining models in Porsche’s motorsport legacy. This particular example, RS number 824, is among just 25 cars originally finished in Gulf Orange, giving it an unmistakable character that stands apart even within the rarefied world of Carrera RS ownership. Completed in February 1973 and delivered new in Germany, it was specified with the desirable Touring package along with headrests, white fog lights, an aerial antenna, and cabin speakers, balancing competition-inspired engineering with everyday usability. Its numbers-matching 2.7-liter flat six remains in place, verified by the accompanying Kardex, while the addition of air conditioning further enhances the driving experience.
