SUMMARY
A stunning left-hand drive 3.2 showing only 32,700 miles.
DESCRIPTION
A stunning left-hand drive 3.2 showing only 32,700 miles. One owner in the US until our UK vendor acquired it in 2016. Now in European specification and recent Concours winner. Launched in 1984, these were the ultimate 1980's sports cars. The 3.2 Carrera is revered as the ultimate development of the original 911 that first appeared in 1963, before being replaced by the 964 series in 1990. These final cars were the most flexible and usable of Butzi Porsche's original design. The all-alloy flat-6 engine, which had been fuel injected since 1971 received a final stretch to 3,164cc, giving a torquey 231hp, enough to propel the lithe and slippery coupe to over 150mph, with 0-60mph coming up in 5.6 seconds. This stunning, left-hand drive 911 3.2 Carrera is showing only 32,700 miles and was originally delivered to the United States where it was enjoyed by one owner. With the car are the.original purchase invoice from the Porsche dealer and the spec sheet from 1986. Our vendor acquired the car in 2016 with an indicated mileage of 31,539 and registered it to these shores in September of that year. Since then he has taken the decision to re-present the car in a European specification (USA spec lights and overriders boxed) and the accuracy of his efforts and his patent attention to detail has resulted in well-deserved success at recent PCGB Concours d'Elegance at Chatsworth with 2nd place (Aircooled) in 2017 and 1st place (Aircooled) this year. It may only be a simple 3.2 Carrera but the deep shine in the Black coachwork and the pristine interior make it into a real head-turner. We understand that the Sunroof, Air-Con and the factory fitted radio are in good working order. Supplied with a good history file, Service book with stamps. original tools and tyre compressor, and the normal books and manuals, this lovely example offers its new custodian entry-level Porsche ownership delightfully wrapped in that classic 1980's silhouette.
