Auction Description:

This particular G series Carrera RS, was delivered new through the Porsche dealer Mahag Munchen in June 1976. As certified by Porsche in the cars file, it was finished in black, with a 'kunstleder schwarz' / black interior, with option code M481 a desirable five speed gearbox.

Invoices within the cars file account for its first engine rebuild in August 1990, through worldwide recognised tuners RUF Automobile GmbH. The invoice totals over 45,000 DM for this alone.

In its most recent history chassis 6609061 has resided within a significant European collection, and , as you would expect with a car of this pedigree is described to be in excellent condition and highly original.
The car was subject to a re-sprayed in 2010, and the engine was once again overhauled at a cost of € 7,500 by Kobus Tuning in 2013. The car has covered very little mileage since.

Collectors must remember the bloodlines of the 1976 Carrera 2.7 MFI – it was the last street car Porsche ever produced with mechanical fuel injection. In fact there were only three MFI based cars produced by Porsche after 1976, all race cars. First were the ten turbocharged Porsche 934 ½, then Porsche 935 built for Group 5 , later, the twenty 3.0-liter 911 SC/RS (954) rally cars built in 1984 to compete in Group B.

With its 210 hp Carrera RS engine, this matching numbers, original colour combination G series Carrera RS is for the most discerning collector or Porsche connoisseur. One of 123 produced presented in excellent condition throughout and not to be missed before the car follows suit of its 1973 elder brother.

There's a fair bit of overreach in that description.

The first of which is the are NOT RS's, they are Carrera's with a 2.7 MFI motor, very cool 911's just not a RS.

Generally Coys car are bad...I look at them every year at their Nurburgring auction and they were always bad!

Let's see if they will sell this or not

I can tell from personal experience that this is not a bad car. I drove it two years ago and wrote an article about the car for RS Porsche Magazine in the Netherlands. The title was 'the big unknown', since very few people know that in 1976 also a batch of 113 were produced (the first 10 numbers were for internal use). These are rare cars and deserve a premium over '75 and '76 Carrera MFI cars. One of the reasons is that these have the '9' in the VIN, the only cars that also had this '9' at the same place were pure race cars. No affiliation with this car.
