This is a truly nice, honest, well taken care of 1987 Porsche 911 Carrera Targa, in beautiful Guard Red with Black leather interior.
This car has a clean Car-Fax (please see below) with no accidents and has been responsibly owned and maintained by a physician for the last 10 years. Prior to that, all 3 of the owners were acquaintances of the current owner.
Maintenance has been performed by certified mechanics and much was done at Porsche dealerships, there is literally a huge stack of all of the paperwork, receipts, etc., that will come with the vehicle.
The car has 60,165 miles. This was strictly a “seasonal” car for the owner. The car was only driven on Summer days in Maine. Every Summer, the car was taken out of storage, serviced, and then enjoyed for the following few months. In early fall, the car was then serviced, winterized and placed in storage. Hence, the reason for the low miles and excellent condition. The car is rust free, and drives and performs as it should.
I will go over every aspect of the cars and please feel free to ask any questions after you look at the 75+ photographs.
Body/Paint/Exterior
The body is in great condition with only wear relative to the low mileage. There are no dents, parking lot dings, or anything like that. There are a few tiny scratches here and there, however it looks as though most of those should buff right out. Please note: this car has not been professionally detailed. It was simply fired up, the dust gently rinsed off and photographed as is. The rubber trim and black trim pieces also present very well, indicative of a vehicle only driven during favorable weather.
Interior
The interior is all original with the exception of the aftermarket radio, and has never been smoked in. The black leather is in good condition with the exception of the driver’s side bolster which has a 2-3 inch slit. This is a condition issue that is common with the Porsche interior, and can easily be repaired or enjoyed as is. All of the rest of the interior is in great condition, but given the one tear in the seat I am rating the interior a 7 out of 10. The targa top is in great shape, and seals well. It was redone a few seasons ago and insulation was also added to keep the cockpit cool during the summer. All gauges work, zero electrical problems. As with the exterior, it has not been professionally detailed, and could be detailed or enjoyed as-is.
Tires / Rims
The tires are in like new condition and have less than 1000 miles on them and were purchased for around $1200. The BBS rims look fantastic on the car, however the original black FUCHS rims are included if the buyer would like to use them. The Fuchs rims could use a good cleaning, other than that they are ready to go. When arranging shipping, please make note with your shipper if you would like the original wheels as well.
Engine / Gearbox
The engine starts with the bump of a key, no smokes, knocks, weird noises, etc. The car has always been well maintained and the engine is responsive and acceleration is great. The car runs through the gears with no grinding or difficulty, has no leaks, and please see video for a short driving video. The battery and starter are new as of 2017.
Documentation
The car comes with a stack of maintenance records dating all the way back to 1987, a clean car fax, the original window sticker, and all of the registration history.
The car comes with a Bill of Sale only, because Maine DMV does not issue a title vehicles older than 1994. After some research I have found that most states require a few additional pieces of paperwork (Example: I live in TX and the TX DMV required a signed affidavit). We will do everything possible to make the registration process as easy as possible for the new buyer.
If you have less than 5 feedback, please contact prior to bidding. A $500 deposit is due within 24 hours after the completion of the auction.
Damaged Driver's Side Seat Bolster - Slit in leather is approx 2-3 inches long and covered in black tape. Has not gotten any bigger since owner has had the car.
