A European classic in pristine condition.


A beautifully restored 1974 Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 MFI Coupe, a rest-of-world (RoW) model, has recently been listed for sale. With its roots in Europe and a storied past across Spain, Germany, and the UK, this air-cooled icon boasts a blend of meticulous restorations and mechanical upgrades, making it a prime collector’s piece for Porsche enthusiasts.

This specific 911 Carrera was first refurbished in the UK in 2012, where its distinctive yellow exterior with Carrera-script side graphics was applied, complemented by flared rear fenders, chrome accents, and a rear ducktail spoiler. The car’s appeal is further enhanced by its iconic 15" Fuchs alloy wheels, recently refinished to perfection, and fitted with fresh Pirelli tires. Its aggressive yet elegant appearance remains true to the spirit of mid-year 911 models, known for their balance of performance and style.

Under the hood, the heart of this Porsche is a 2.7-liter flat-six engine, featuring Bosch mechanical fuel injection (MFI). The engine underwent a significant overhaul in 2023 by renowned specialist Wolfram Adams in Germany, ensuring peak performance. Alongside the engine work, the car also benefited from an overhaul of its fuel injection pump by Manfred Rugen. The five-speed manual gearbox was previously rebuilt by Autofarm of Oxfordshire, ensuring smooth power delivery to the rear wheels. Recent work includes timing adjustments, tie rod upgrades, and various refinements to optimize driving performance.

Inside, the cabin maintains a classic feel with black vinyl and cloth upholstery. The minimalist interior includes power windows, a heated rear window, and VDO instrumentation. Notably, components of the air conditioning system were removed, staying true to its pure driving focus. With only 21,000 kilometers (~13,000 miles) on the odometer, this 911 Carrera remains a low-mileage example.

Now offered with a clean Oregon title, this rare Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 MFI Coupe represents an opportunity to own a piece of European automotive history, perfectly restored and ready for the open road.
