Porsche 911 S

Het voertuig in detail

The 911 Targa 2.4S was made from 1972 to 1973. In 1972, 989 Targa models left the production line all with the oil filler cap located behind the righthand door. Porsche then moved the oil tank nearer to the middle of the car for optimum weight distribution in 1972 only to be forced to move it back in 1973 due to American customers in particular using it incorrectly as a fuel filler. No such treatment befell this Italian supplied car. The 1972 model is therefore regarded as the perfect handling 911 and the most desirable. The 2.4 S Targa produced 190bhp at 6500rpm with a compression ratio of 8.5:1 that gave it a projected top speed of 147mph, nearly equalling the performance of the infamous production homologation special, the legendary 1973 RS which was based on it. Only the displacement of 2.4 litres verses 2.7 and a different cam in the fuel injection pump separates the two models mechanically. Most 2.4S cars were fitted with the more comfortable Koni Sport shock absorbers as this car is. As the 2.7 RS was not made in Targa form, the 2.4S Targa is the most powerful classic long bonnet 911 produced and is now attracting a solid following.
The model presented was fully restored a few years ago, it retains a very good level of aesthetic and technical presentation.
