1985 Euro Spec Porsche 911 Targa 3.2l on 2040-cars

Year:1985 Mileage:116670
Location:

San Francisco, California, United States

San Francisco, California, United States

Presented before you is a 1985 3.2L Euro Porsche 911 Targa.  The car was offered here weeks ago but because of previous winner’s inability to raise funds, it is placed on the market once more. Again if you need to sell one car to get this car please do not bid.

Allow me to once more address some of the car’s history to you.

It is a 2 owner 1985 Euro Spec 911 Targa with factory special ordered paint and cr?me leather. (I’ve attached the color code for your inspection and 2 sets of photos of the car in different light so you can see how extraordinary this color is). The Euro spec 3.2L cars came with 10.3:1 compression compared to the U.S.’s 9.5:1. What this means is 231HP instead of 200HP output.  The engine, transmission and chassis #s are matching by the way.

The vehicle has been in California since 1986 hence the blue plates which you see. What makes this Euro spec Targa even more desirable is that it also wears the California BAR sticker which so many of the Euro spec’d cars on Ebay do not have.  This makes it a 100% smog legal in California. I have also attached photos of the car’s last smog certificate which was performed in October 2013 to prove.

The vehicle is clean through and through with no stories, no gawdy add ons like whale tails and chrome wheels.

Enough of my blabber and here are the bullet points on why you should or shouldn’t buy the car.

Con’s:

-          116,670miles

-          Odometer, headlights, and front bumper converted to US spec to allow for US entry.

-          Several door dings and minute scratches along door edge and rear lid.

-          Weathered steering wheel along with front and rear dash.

-          Dated radio system that needs to be addressed.

-          Squeaky suspension over hard road bumps. Suspension is original and has never been changed. Car is unmolested.

-          Other Porschephiles asking if they can have this car’s paint code.

-          Annoying Ferrari 308 owners trying to race you thinking they’re in the movie ‘Against All Odds’.

 

Pro’s:

-          116,670miles (For 29years that equates to 4000miles per year!)

-          Euro spec 3.2L motor.

-          100% No rust (Photos of under the car included)

-     Matching numbers

-          Porsche special paint combo.

-          All OEM parts except for radio.

-          Water tight Targa top. Inside and out.

-          Recently serviced in March by Charles, ex Stable mechanic here in SF, with all fluids replaced. Sparkplugs swapped out. Mechanic can be contacted as he knows the vehicle’s history.

-          Brakes on demand with no issues.

-          CA smogged, CA Titled, CA blue plated, and CA garaged here in San Francisco.

-          16” OEM Fuchs wheels with no curb rash and tires.

-          Complete tools, manuals, pouch and spare wheel + tire.

-          Upside resale in European markets.

Our hats are off to Porsche's 2014 911 Turbo Cabriolets

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

Porsche has just debuted its two latest decapitated rocket sleds today at the LA Auto Show, the new 911 Turbo Cabriolet and Turbo S Cabriolet, which share their coupe counterparts' 520-horsepower and 560-hp 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged flat-six engines. That kind of power ought separate a lot of hats (and toupees!) from heads.
The rear-engined Porsches put their power down through all four wheels, which allows them to launch from 0-60 in 3.3 seconds or less (the Turbo S Cab takes just 3.1 seconds), and both of them top out at 195 mph.
The 911 Turbo Cabriolet starts at $160,700, while the Turbo S Cabriolet can be had for a grand total of $193,900 (plus $950 for destination). Is the S model's 40 extra horsepower worth $33,200? We're not so sure, but we imagine Porsche won't have any trouble selling it.

Overnight action from the 24 Hours of Le Mans

Sun, 23 Jun 2013

We won't go into a recap here, but there are still leading positions being fought for in all classes - it's so close that leads are changing when a car goes into the pits. We'll let the recap wait until the end of the race, so for now enjoy some shots from last night's action at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Porsche Exclusive showcases custom-order 911 Turbo Cabrio

Sun, 06 Apr 2014

Porsche is one of the most profitable automakers in the business. In fact, it's said to make about $23,000 on each car it sells, thanks in no small part to an options list that can send the sticker price accelerating quicker than one of its own sports cars. But there are always those for whom even the extensive option list won't be enough, and for just such customers, there is Porsche Exclusive.
The division in Zuffenhausen is tasked with creating even more individualized examples of Porsche vehicles, and it recently did up this 911 Turbo Cabriolet - which, at $160,700, is already one of the most expensive Porsches you can order this side of a 918 Spyder: more than any Boxster, Cayman, Macan or Cayenne, any Panamera other than a Turbo S or Executive - not to mention any other 911 short of a Turbo S.
This particular demo vehicle features a Slate Grey paint job and red interior decked out in more leather than an S&M dungeon - which, come to think of it, would probably be less financially painful than ordering up this car from Porsche Exclusive.
