Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 and 911 Turbo 3.3. 1984 - 1989.

The basic 911 Carrera 3.2 remained relatively unchanged throughout its production life, although by the end of 1989 when production finished, the car had inherited many minor spec changes along with a new, larger, stronger G50 gearbox in 1987.  Essentially three body types were available, Coupe, Targa and Cabriolet.

In addition to the basic spec, customers were able to order a host of detail equipment, from heated seats (lh option 139, rh 340), top tint screen (468), through to spoiler package (front and rear together 473), wider and bigger Fuchs wheels (16" in various widths), sport suspension( 031), limited slip differential (220), air conditioning (559). The option list was huge.  Additionally for those customers with deep enough pockets, paintwork could be 'to sample' (cars like this will have a paint code L999), interior finish in leather or to sample and also for the first time a 'Works turbo look' body was available (known as SSE or Supersport in some Countries).

As always with Porsche, different regions or markets might have had slightly different standard equipment levels. For example, the British always got a sunroof, the Italians usually air con, limited slip differential and no rear seat belts, for North America air conditioning and Leather would have been commonplace, therefore if you are buying a 911 that was originally built for another market check the detail spec..

One of the most rare of all 3.2 series was the 'Clubsport' and identified by option M637. Just 340cars produced during 1988 and '89 model years. Essentially an 'optimised' 3.2 Coupe, lighter by 110lbs, with a red line increased to 6840rpm, different computer chip, a short shift gearlever, Bilstien sport shocks, spoiler package, 16" Fuchs wheels. To save weight, equipment was pared right down, no electric seats or windows, no rear seats, no air con and no under body sealant.

Most Clubsport were in Grand Prix white, some with 'Carrera CS' decals on the side, white, red or black wheel centres. All were coupe apart from the inevitable special order of a single Targa. Of the other colours I have heard of guards red, silver and black.

To commemorate 25years of 911 production an Anniversary Carrera was offered. Sometimes referred to as a 'Jubilee'. Only 875 cars were manufactured, including coupe, Targa and cabriolet. Painted in Diamond  blue metallic, the difference was inside. The leather interior was in a unique 'metallic' blue (very eighties), with 'F. Porsche' embossed in the head restraints of the front seats and a silver blue silk velour carpet. I believe they were largely the same specification, with spoiler package, 16" Fuchs and sport suspension.

For 1989 through to the end of '89 Porsche offered a most beautiful car. Evidently it was not exactly planned.  Porsche had decided to offer a new, simple, lightweight open 911, to be built on the 'new' 964 series chassis. But development of the 964 series fell behind schedule and coupled to the slump in 911 sales in North America, it was decided to offer the new Speedster on the 'old' 3.2 chassis in the hope of boosting sales.  Most noticeable is the smaller and more steeply angled windscreen. There is no screen surround, the door glass winds down fully into the door without the need for the 1/4 lights of other models and the screen can be simply unbolted for sports events.

The hood was single lined, smaller and lighter than a convertible and when folded was able to be completely hidden under a plastic cover.

Inside the car further weight was saved with the removal of the rear seats. No spoiler package was offered although for Germany and USA 1,894 were built as 'Turbo Look'. 2,065 Speedsters built in total 823 for the U.S. The Speedster. A 'flat or slant nose ' was a further option but very rare and may be a less desirable proposition as most buyers look for the traditional 911 shape.

Today Speedsters fetch a premium over the 'regular' 3.2 models, although the mechanical spec was the same. Porsche were quick to point out that the hood offered 'weather protection' and was not to be expected to offer the same comfort as a full convertible. Some examples were ordered with air conditioning, comfort or 'turbo' seats.





Picks:  This 911 had a good job done on the paintwork for the slantnose conversion, a very picky person could wet sand the hood

and fenders to minimize wash / swirl marks and to get rid of some small touched up rock pecks in the hood, tire tread depth is low

in the rear, vehicle has much less than the expected amount of knicks and road rash on the body, seats have normal patina and age

lines, driver seat lower thigh bolster has light cracking, driver door weather stripping is torn at the bottom from ingress / egress, small

filled-in rock star in the upper windshield, overall paint looks great (I am being very picky with the above comments) and the interior

looks great as well - esp for the age and the light color, nothing else to reasonably fault.
