Vehicle History & Overview

This 911S Targa was produced in December 1976 and finished in Silver Metallic (Z2) over a black interior. Currently, the car is finished in dark blue metallic over a red leather interior. The seller acquired the vehicle in June 2021 and had it serviced, swapped the interior to red including the carpets, and installed a dashboard cover as the original dash is cracked. In addition, a new air conditioning compressor was fitted, and the system was serviced. Modifications appear to be limited to the aforementioned exterior/interior color change and a Kenwood audio unit with aftermarket speakers.

Porsche's Targa model was born as a result of roll-over crash standards and was the only way to buy an open-top 911 for many years. 1977 was a carry-over year for the 911 and the final year for the 2.7L engine. The S developed 175 horsepower when new and was paired with a 915-series 5-speed manual transmission. This particular Targa sports the optional "Light Metal Wheels," also known among enthusiasts as Fuchs alloys. Targas have become popular with open-air 911 enthusiasts seeking additional occupant protection and structural rigidity.
