Description
An original car, same owner last 32 years and well maintained.
This car offered here is a UK-supplied, 1977 Porsche 911 2.7 ‘Lux' Targa with the ingenious Sportomatic (type 925/15) gearbox, now with three forward gears.
Believed to be a matching-numbers example, it was one of just 1,724 such models produced that year.
With its mid-seventies uncluttered styling, distinctive bumpers, full-length rear reflector and newly designed wing-mirrors, this car has all the classic styling cues from this once overlooked era.
It's further enhanced by the very period, 15-inch ATS ‘cookie cutter' alloy wheels.
Better equipped than many of its predecessors, the model-year 1977 (J-series) 2.7 Lux model retained such luxuries as electric windows, but added a brake servo and an improved heating and A/C operation.
The Targa was now fitted with fixed rather than movable quarter-lights for better security and this particular car is fitted with the optional extra of pinstripe cloth on the front and back...
