Description
1973 Porsche 911 S Targa
The 1973 Porsche 911 S Targa is a petrolhead’s soft spot: the final and most refined evolution of the F-body 911s. Exceptionally maintained by its previous owner, it stands today as a perfect turnkey candidate for historic rallies, touring events, or weekend drives with family and friends. This car is the symbol of the brand’s iconic and elegant lines, which started a legacy.
Timeless Aesthetics – Grand Prix White over Black Pepita
Finished in the elegant Grand Prix White with a new upholstered black/pepita interior, this 911 S strikes the perfect visual balance between sporty character and period-correct class. It's a timeless look that perfectly complements the car’s iconic silhouette.
Engineered for Performance – The Iconic 2.4 S
Under the rear deck lid lies the most powerful engine of the pre-impact bumper generation: the 2.4-liter flat-six, factory-rated at 190 bhp. Paired with Bosch mechanical fuel injection and a lightweight magnesium crankcase, it delivers crisp throttle response and exhilarating revs all the way to its 7,200 rpm redline. The Type 915 gearbox completes the package, offering a more refined shift feel over earlier 901 units. Performance is lively and engaging (0–100 km/h in under 7 seconds), but it’s the linear power delivery, mechanical soundtrack, and precise steering that make this car truly addictive to drive.
The ‘S’ – The Holy Grail of Early 911s
The “S” designation marked the top of the range in 1973, both in performance and desirability. Equipped with upgraded brakes, suspension, and a front spoiler for added high-speed stability, the 911 S offered sharper handling than its T and E siblings. Today, the 2.4 S remains the most sought-after variant of the early 911s, prized for its perfect balance of raw driving character. Having the Targa top off only adds to the experience.
This is an opportunity to own a true milestone in Porsche history — a matching-numbers, properly cared-for example, finished in a timeless and desirable specs, Porsche COA, several service invoices and ready for immediate reliable summer action.
