This 1988 Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 Targa represents the pinnacle of the G-model era, the final years before the introduction of the 964.These last Targas are particularly sought-after thanks to their upgraded G50 gearbox, offering smoother, more precise shifting and a noticeably improved driving experience over the earlier 915 units.
Combined with the 231 hp 3.2-liter air-cooled flat-six engine, this model captures the essence of the classic 911 feel, with added usability and refinement.
Finished in Black (L700) with Black leather interior, this 911 embodies timeless Porsche elegance. The body presents beautifully, with 95% original paint, only minor signs of age such as minimal stone chips, and absolutely no rust or dents.The interior remains in excellent condition, with supple, undamaged leather and a clean dashboard. The wheels are immaculate and fitted with new tires.
Mechanically, the car is in superb condition. It has just undergone a full inspection and service by Porsche Classic Center Gelderland, during which everything necessary was brought up to standard.The total investment amounts to €7,500, with over €10,000 in recent invoices included in the file.
