About this Porsche 911
The 1974 model year brought many significant changes to the Porsche 911 to meet legislative requirements around the world for both impact safety and emissions. First, the engine size was increased to 2,687 cc achieving higher torque. Second, new impact bumpers conformed with low-speed protection requirements of US regulations. Thirdly, the use of K-Jetronic CIS Bosch fuel injection in two of the three models in the line up— the 911 and 911S models, retaining the narrow rear arches of the old 2.4, now had a 2.7-litre engine rated at 150 PS (110 kW; 150 hp) and 175 PS (129 kW; 173 hp), respectively. The standard 911 version received an increase to 165 PS (121 kW; 163 hp) for Model Year 1976, which meant that starting from MY 1976, there was only a difference in power of 10 hp between the 911 and the 911S. The engine remained a K-Jetronic 2.7-litre. The 911S 2.7 engine was rated during the entire lifespan at 175 hp (130 kW; 177 PS).
Model year 1977 (K Series. August 1976 to July 1977 production)
According to the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity this ex USA Porsche 911S 2.7 Coupe - Chassis No: 9117201522 and Engine No: 6272685 is a 'matching numbers' car this car was built in December 1976 and was originally finished in Bitter Chocolate with a Cork Leatherette interior and with the following options: Fuchs forged Alloy Wheels with Pirelli Tyres, Koni Shock Absorbers instead of Boge, Oil Cooler, Leather Steering Wheel and an Electric Sun Roof and it was first registered on 1st March 1977 in Wisconsin, USA.
The car was repainted in Guards Red at some stage in its life in the USA, but unfortunately there is no prior history from the USA, which is not unusual, so we do not know when the colour was changed. The car is presented in Guards Red with its original and very nice Cork (Beige) leatherette interior, Porsche over-mats, 2687cc Flat Six Engine, 5 Speed Manual Gearbox, Sony Stereo/Radio/CD player, Electric Sun-Roof, original Porsche Tools and sitting on its original Fuch's Alloy Wheels with relatively new Vredstein tyres.
It was purchased by the previous English owners in February 2017 when they lived in New York and it only had 3 owners in the USA prior to them. The car had a considerable amount of work carried out on it soon after buying the car and there are bills totalling over $17,000 in the history file from Porsche specialist Intersport Performance in Virginia.
When they came back to the UK in August 2018 they shipped the car back with them as they loved it so much and couldn't bear to sell it! It was first registered in the UK on 1st October 2018 and issued with the age related numberplate TRJ 828R. Since arriving here, a further £4,000 was spent by them with Precision Porsche in Uckfield, West Sussex on various works and copies of all invoices are contained in the Documents shown on this advert.
They kept the car until last year before giving it to us to sell for them and we sold the car in May 2022 to a car collector when it had covered 67,105 miles from new, but due to a change in personal circumstances, the car is now being offered for resale. The car has spent most of the last 12 months in storage with only 1,000 miles being driven during that time and it now represents a great opportunity for a new owner to drive and enjoy it!
It is in lovely condition overall, albeit with a few minor paint blemishes here and there, but there is absolutely no rust on the car as can be seen in our photographs and it really is a very nice car to drive. It has now covered a very low believed genuine 68,115 miles from new and a local Porsche specialist concurs that this is almost certainly its original mileage.
Upon sale the car will receive a pre-sales service and new MOT and it will come with our own 6 Month Mechanical Warranty which can be upgraded and extended at additional cost if required.
