Details: Offered for sale is a virtually flawless, entirely original, mechanically excellent, two owner, collector quality 1984 Porsche 911 Carrera Targa with a mere 23k original miles from new. Finished in rare and completely factory original Zinnmetallic over black leather, the car is as tight and sound as it is beautiful, an impeccable and rarely available original example that comes its books and manuals (including the stamped service booklet), additional service records and a clean CARFAX report. Whether youandrsquo;re in the market as a seasoned Porsche collector or just as a weekend enthusiast, this exceptional example is undoubtedly one of the very best on the market and deserves your serious consideration.

Delivered new by Howard Cooper Volkswagen. (the Porsche dealership in Ann Arbor, MI at the time), the car was was lovingly cared for by its first owner, used sparingly throughout his eight years of ownership before being sold to a friend in 1992. The second owner, a resident of nearby Rochester Hills, MI, continued the first ownerandrsquo;s meticulous care for the car, always keeping it properly garaged and maintained and enjoying it only for fair weather weekend driving. The car has never seen a drop of rain or a snow flake, has never been in an accident and is entirely original (including paint) and factory correct. All required maintenance has been completed andndash; often by the local Porsche dealership andndash; and the car is entirely turn key.

The carandrsquo;s rare and 100% original Zinnmetallic finish is exemplary, consistently deep and lustrous and marred only by the most negligible of imperfections (a rock chip or two on the front valence and the like), commensurate with any well-cared-for 23k mile car. The body is entirely straight with factory consistent panel fits and gaps throughout, showing absolutely no evidence of any accidents. The glass is in excellent condition (truly, anything you see is a result of the polarizer on the camera lens), as is the rubber and the Targa top, showing virtually no wear on either the exterior or the headliner. The Fuchs wheels are impeccable and wrapped in nearly new Pirelli tires. The carandrsquo;s undercarriage is completely rust-free, original and untouched, further testament to the high level of care provided by its fastidious owners.

The carandrsquo;s interior is equally as clean, the original black leather seats showing virtually no wear whatsoever. The same can said of the carpets and interior panels (including door pockets and armrests) and the dash is entirely free of cracks or warping, housing the original and functional Blaupunkt Monterey radio. In addition to the radio, the car left the factory with the following options:

  • CodeOption Description
  • 018 Sport Steering Wheel with Elevated Hub
  • 220 Locking Differential
  • 395 Light Metal Wheels andndash; Forged
  • 409 Sport Seats andndash; Left and Right
  • 424 Automatic Heating Control
  • 577 Heated and Tinted Front Windshield

The carandrsquo;s original bulletproof 3.2L engine fires up without any smoke or hesitation, pulling strongly and smoothly through each of the transmissionandrsquo;s gears. The car received new brakes less than 1k miles ago and it brakes as straight and true as it drives. From behind the wheel itandrsquo;s easy to understand why this era of 911 is one of the most desirable: it beautifully melds efficiency, reliability and everyday ride quality with a truly visceral, vintage driving feel that is sure to provide the driver a wonderfully grin-inducing experience.

The car comes with all of its books and manuals (including the stamped service booklet), a stack of additional service receipts, its original keys and a clean Carfax report. The second owner has also intimated that he has the original window sticker and we will of course forward that to its next owner upon receipt.
