The 911 Carrera 3.2 made its debut at the Frankfurt motor show in September 1983, reviving the ‘Carrera' name for the first time since 1977. Although it remained an air-cooled 'flat-six', the '3.2' engine was 80% new and incorporated an effective cam-chain tensioner and associated lubrication system that at last addressed a perennial 911 shortcoming. This enlarged and extensively revised new engine produced 231bhp, 27 up on its predecessor, endowing the Carrera with excellent performance. 0-60 in 5.3, 0-100 in 13.6 seconds and a top speed of 152mph were figures not too far away from the legendary 1974 Turbo.
It's in Porsche's DNA to refine their models over long production periods focusing on factors such as functionality, performance, and design and so, naturally, during the 6-year production run of the 3.2 Carrera, many options and iterations were available for customers when ordering their new 911.
Dating from 1989 this fabulous Cabriolet is one of the last of the 3.2 Carreras. A matching numbers example Sport model and we are informed with the G50 manual gearbox, sports seats and electric windows and mirrors. This car has been extremely well looked after.
Presented in its desirable Red Coachwork, its already superb exterior finish is enhanced by a Black soft top and complemented by a Black leather interior and period correct, black centered, Fuchs alloys. This is a great opportunity to own a remarkably pretty, unmolested, Carrera Cabriolet with an excellent maintenance history.
