Over the course of its more than five decades of production, the 911 has evolved continuously to reflect changes in technology, motorsports, consumer preferences, Porsche as a company, and yes, even safety regulations. The 1974 U.S. Department of Transportation impact laws presented a difficult challenge to automakers, most of whom struggled to develop an attractive solution to the new 5 mph impact requirements. Porsche’s approach was among the neatest of any automaker, and in typical Porsche fashion, what began as a functional requirement became an iconic part of the Porsche aesthetic. From 1974 to 1989, the accordion or impact bumper cars represented the latest evolution of the Porsche 911. While aesthetically similar, the different iterations of impact bumper cars were mechanically quite different.

The 911 was slated to be replaced by the 928 in the late 70s, a plan that was famously reversed in 1981 by Porsche’s then new CEO Peter Schutz, who instructed Porsche’s engineers to continue to develop the 911 beyond the already competent SC. The result was the Carrera 3.2, introduced for the 1984 model year, and itself developed over the course of its six model years of production. The engine displacement was increased to 3.2 liters, oil-fed chain tensioners, added, and larger brakes were fitted as well. The definitive version of the Carrera 3.2 was produced from 1987 to 1989, featuring the all-new Getrag G50 transmission, hydraulic clutch, and a modest power increase. Torsion bar suspension and unassisted steering remained, keeping the fundamental 911 architecture intact and making this the last of the original style 911s.

This particular car must be among the lowest mileage 911 Carreras available. Showing 7,700 miles on the odometer, and supported by the Carfax, this Porsche represents a near new car in every respect. The original owner purchased the car with special order paint “Cassis Red Metallic” with burgundy leather interior, sunroof, and sport seats. The car had two long-term owners in Hawaii, before making its way to the mainland in 2017. Throughout the years, the car has never been damaged, has never been apart, and remains today essentially as new. Recent service includes the replacement of the fuel pump, a new fuel sending unit, and new alternator. The car also has been fully serviced including all fluids, new Continental tires, new locking lug nuts, a new sunroof assembly and seal, new motor mount, new hood struts, and detailing for the engine compartment. An inoperative odometer was also rectified, with the owner noting that the car was only driven to the shop for repairs when the odometer stopped and that the mileage is therefore very close to the indicated mileage. The car is well optioned, with sport seats, Blaupunkt Reno radio, forged Fuchs alloy wheels, Bilstein sport shock absorbers, hi-fi sound system, sunroof, and California emissions.

Cosmetically, the car presents beautifully. The Cassis Red Metallic paint is stunning, changing intensity of hue from the midday rose color to a sun-setting rich, lustrous violet. Long derided, this color has enjoyed a recent resurgence in interest and popularity, and is now regarded by enthusiasts as a welcome alternative to ubiquitous colors like black and guards red. The paint on this car is essentially as new with factory gloss, wonderful finish, and beautiful detailing around all glass, lenses, and black trim areas. There are a handful of small marks on the paint, including a scratch on the driver’s door, but overall the paint is excellent and displays no evidence of paintwork ever. The paint has been metered and displayed consistent and thin readings, exactly the way an original paint Porsche should meter. The glass is original and in excellent condition. The lighting, lenses, and emblems are all in beautiful condition, showing little to no signs of age or wear. The doors, hood, and trunk show consistent panel gaps and proper fitting, all of which shut with factory precision just as they did on the showroom floor.

The interior is in excellent original condition. The leather on the sport seats remains supple with firm bolsters and consistent sheen and essentially no wear. The original carpeting is in very nice condition owing largely to a complete set of original floor mats (included with the car), which protected the original carpets and show mild use. The dashboard and door cap leather is exceptionally nice, with all gauges and switches essentially as new and nicely detailed. The red lens for the handbrake and brake pad wear light is missing but the interior is otherwise difficult to fault. The headliner, sun visors, rear seats, rear interior panels, and remaining interior trim are all in excellent condition. The Blaupunkt Reno radio is still in place as well. The overall condition and integrity of the interior supports the low indicated mileage and exceptional care this car has received over the past 30 years.

The engine compartment is extremely clean and has not been restored. Showing just slight hints of use, the entire engine compartment is undisturbed and unmodified. The trunk is also pleasingly original, showing no aging, with all structural elements beneath the carpets appearing factory fresh. Underneath the car further supports the low miles revealing a dry and clean chassis, with factory Cosmoline coating still in place.

The car runs and drives as one would expect for such a low mileage undisturbed car. The engine runs well, performing essentially as new, aside from the typical Motronic idle hunting at times. The clutch engages smoothly and positively and the gearbox has good synchromesh. The steering retains the magical light and nimble 911 feel thanks to the 6-inch front wheels, while the chassis and suspension are tight and reassuring. Nestled in the sport seats, sunroof opened, and the open road ahead, there is little that can compare with the engaging sounds of a Carrera 3.2 as it opens up and reveals decades of history and performance heritage behind the Porsche name. This Carrera 3.2 is sold with the original tool roll, jack, and a handful of records for recent work.

This is an extraordinarily rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional example of the ultimate torsion-bar impact bumper 911. A G50 coupe in an unusual color combination with sport seats, this car is among the cleanest, most undisturbed examples currently available and will appeal to the collector looking for something truly different.*This car is not at Fantasy Junction but can be viewed by appointment.
