Anyone else out there think that the pre-auction estimate appears to be low for a Euro-Carrera? I thought they went for more. Or am I incorrect, and this is the same as US cars?
Also - Carrera side decals look high.

It is the European version, same as the RS (see: 2.7-litre, 210bhp engine) and the "hammer price" we well see...
1975 Porsche 911SC Carrera 2.7-Litre Coupé
Chassis no. 9115600452
Engine no. 6650563
The legendary Porsche RS resulted from the factory's realisation that the weight of its top-of-the-range 2.4-litre 911S production model restricted its development potential for racing. Therefor, it was decided to produced and homologate a special lightweight variant for competition purposes. The result was the Carrera RS (RennSport), which featured thinner-gauge metal in its doors, roof, boot lid, floors and even in the gearchange platform.
When the homologation targets had been met, the lightweight RS was discontinued but the Carrera name continued on Porsche's top-of-the-range model, which in its new, series-production 911SC form mounted the 2.7-litre, 210bhp engine in a full-weight, fully trimmed bodyshell. The tail spoiler was an option and its absence from this car only serves to emphasise the understated elegance of the 911 Carrera in unadorned form.
According to its accompanying Porsche Zertifikat, this car was originally sold in Italy with the following extras: Grand Prix White paintwork; black 'Carrera' side lettering; and a sliding steel sunroof. Recent works, carried out in the autumn of 2012, included overhauling the brakes and fitting a new alternator, wheel bearings and tyres (invoices available). Said to be rust-free and undamaged, the car at some time has been repainted in its original colour. The black leather interior in described as in very good condition and both the gearbox and electrics are said to function normally.
This highly desirable and increasingly collectible early 911 Carrera is offered with Austrian Einzelgenehmigung and the aforementioned Porsche Zertifikat.
Estimate:
€55,000 - 65,000
£45,000 - 53,000
US$ 72,000 - 85,000
whats the price in USA for a "normal" condition Euro Carrera (2.7, 210 HP) ?
I'd come to believe they were bringing beyond $100k, but maybe I was over-estimating.

Appears to have later front fenders with Euro side markers not found on 74-76 Euro Carreras.
This thread shows what I've typically seen regarding these cars. Can't recall auction results.

Thank you Peanut, interesting Thread. I also cant find auction results.
911 S 1967 and ...
One other link I'd seen which had a lot of cars, but again... I don't know who is reporting this data. Prices are pretty strong here. Are you considering purchase of a similar car?
