Double Take: 1974 Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 MFI Coupe

Published February 20, 2015 by Rob

A couple weeks back we featured two fantastic 911s for sale at 4 Star Classics – this 1995 Carrera RS Clubsport and this extremely rare 1994 Speed Yellow Turbo 3.6 – and they happen to have two 1974 Carrera 2.7 MFI Coupes for sale so I figured why not show both of them. We’ve had the pleasure of featuring a few of these wonderful 911s in the past and as their values rapidly accelerate I imagine we’ll begin to see even more pristine examples come up for sale. The Carrera 2.7 MFI Coupe combines the running gear of the 1973 Carrera RS Touring with the mid-year redesign of the 911. So while they won’t look as good as a Carrera RS they still possess similar dynamic capabilities and come at a much cheaper price (even if they are still very pricey themselves).

We’ll begin with this example in Grand Prix White over Checkered Leatherette cloth, which shows 54,026 miles on it.

1968 Porsche 912 Coupe

Published February 18, 2015 by Rob

I have always had a particular fondness for the 912 and a part of me wishes Porsche would offer such an alternative now: a lower-cost, lighter, no-frills, four-cylinder version of the 911 that could be pushed relatively hard without needing the wider spaces of a track. I recognize that is an unlikely reality given that Porsche’s brand fits much more squarely in the upper tiers of cost and luxury, but I can always hope. Because of this I tend to keep my eye out for a 912, which is becoming increasingly difficult to find. Like any other early Porsche, 912 values have moved up and even though this has been at a much slower rate than we see with the 911 it is in part because of the 911 that the 912 has become much more prized. With a nearly identical appearance, but a 1.6 liter flat-4 rather than the 911’s 2.0 liter flat-6, the 912 provides interested buyers a 911 alternative at a much lower cost, which has always been its purpose. Here we have a Green 1968 Porsche 912 Coupe, located in Maine, with 76,000 miles on it.

Tuner Tuesday Super Trio: Three Generations of Supercharged 911s

Published February 17, 2015 by Carter

Oh, how I do love the comparos! Today I’ve worked up a third tuner comparison, because frankly this interesting trio was just a bit too good to pass up – as were the other BMWs! But unlike the factory sourced Dinan and Alpina modded cars from earlier, this comparison focuses on some unusual Porsches. Supercharging isn’t the typical choice for the flat-6, but the bolt-on horsepower results are undeniable, bringing the normal flat-6 quickly up to Turbo levels of power. I have three generations compiled here, all popular in their own right but for different reasons. Which is the winner?

1987 Porsche 944 Turbo with 5k miles

Published February 17, 2015 by Paul

$_4 (1)

The Porsche 944 Turbo, known internally as the 951, is leading the charge in terms of the 944’s popularity with collectors. As such, prices have been on the rise for these forced induction coupes, as P-car enthusiasts begin to view them as worthy alternatives to the almighty 911. We saw a low mileage 1986 944 Turbo sell last month for $21,500. Good examples are regularly approaching and exceeding the $20,000 mark. Now comes along this 1987 944 Turbo with just under 6,000 miles. Surely this is one of the lowest mileage examples we’ve seen yet at GCFSB. The asking price is also one of the highest we’ve encountered. Worth the price of admission for an almost new 944 Turbo?

2002 Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe

Published February 17, 2015 by Rob

As popular as they may be, silver cars are rarely exciting. Transform the shade, darkening it just slightly, from silver to one of the various grays on the market and suddenly you have something that can be far more interesting. We still wouldn’t call it exciting, but it becomes much easier to appreciate. Wrap that color around a 415 hp twin-turbocharged 911 and you have yourself a bit of a sleeper, or at least as close to a sleeper as an iconic sports car can be. The 996 may never be a much loved 911, but in turbocharged form it’s undeniably a fantastic performer and that lack of love simply means that they can be had for a much lower price than their comparable brethren. Here we have a 2002 Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe, located in Oklahoma, with 51,000 miles on it.
