Description
Testing the water with my 1975 Porsche 911 Targa S. Car is a 2.7L 4 speed manual car finished in silver metallic. Engine was rebuilt by renowned Porsche mechanical Rennsport located in Stow MA. Since then car has had almost no miles put on and has been parked on jack stands in garage. Will need paint job but has absolutely zero rust as it is a California car. ...
Our Take:
- Iconic Targa Design: The 1975 Porsche 911 Targa is a standout thanks to its distinctive Targa top—a nifty little invention that offers the solid feel of a coupe with a removable roof panel. In the automotive world, it's like having your cake and eating it too! Back in the '70s, this design resonated with those who craved open-air freedom without sacrificing structural integrity. Today, it's a design that whispers nostalgia with a dash of sporty flair.
- Engine & Performance: The 2.7-liter flat-six engine found in this model was both loved and loathed in its time. Porsche fans often wax lyrical about the engine's unique sound and fairly robust performance, even if it did have a reputation for being a bit temperamental. The fact that this engine's been rebuilt by Rennsport means it's in passionate hands—an assurance that can't be undervalued among aficionados.
- California Car, Rust-Free: A rust-free 1975 specimen is akin to finding a unicorn in the automotive world. Thanks to its California origins, this 911 Targa remains mostly untouched by the red menace that often plagues classic cars. It's like a time capsule of sorts, preserving the quintessential 911 aura that's entranced many over the decades.
- Manual Transmission Delight: With a 4-speed manual gearbox, you're not just driving; you're engaging in a tactile conversation with the car. This is a feature that enthusiasts will appreciate, as the manual transmission offers a connection to the car that modern automatics can't. It's the kind of driving experience that makes you part of the machine—a treasured ritual for purists.
