1985 Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2

The successor to the Porsche 911 SC and the car that kept the world’s most iconic sportscar moniker alive, the Porsche 911 3.2 Carrera delivers the ideal synthesis of classic air-cooled performance and zero driving aids combined with modern creature comforts and traditional 911 styling that was never replicated by Porsche in the 30 odd years of production since.

Producing 30 more horsepower than its predecessor for a total of 231hp using the latest Bosch LE-Jetronic fuel injection system, the 911 3.2 Carrera features power assisted brakes, a new front air dam with integrated fog lights, electric windows and mirrors, optional electric sports seats, optional air-conditioning and the choice of a sports body with front and rear spoilers to complete the look.

And, because of their excellent build quality with fully galvanised bodies from the factory and typically meticulous owner fraternity, these iconic 911s still deliver an unburstable, goose-bump making drive whilst offering a unique investment proposition.

Australian delivered, numbers matching and sold new by John Newell Porsche, Sydney in August of 1985 this meticulously well-kept 911 3.2 Carrera coupe was specially ordered in White Gold Metallic over Black leather trim.

Optioned with electric seats, electric windows, air-conditioning and the sought-after sport body this very original car still features its correct fittings and fixtures.

From the original Fuchs alloys, color-code and engine bay decals and even the original Dolby digital stereo all in outstanding condition these small tell-tale signs show how well the car has been cared for.

The drive is also on the button. Gear changes feel tight and sharp, the feeling of the chassis through the driver seat is lively and acceleration pushes you right into the rear seats.

Accompanying this are the original log-books and manuals kept in the vinyl Porsche wallet showing a Porsche service history, the original spare tyre compressor and tool-roll.

One of the finest Australian delivered 911 3.2 Carrera’s we’ve seen featuring the most desirable 231hp motor and preceded by great provenance and long-term ownership this car isn’t just excellently prepared for its next drive, it is a market leader as prices continue to move north.
