About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Small scratch above the passenger's side door handle. Very good slightly older paint and chrome otherwise. Slightly dull rubber rub strips. Very good interior. Very clean engine bay and underbody. A 2012 restoration that has seen some use but doesn't really need anything and comes equipped with the rare hard top. Represented as matching numbers engine.

Market commentary

An unusually complete list of options and accessories, including soft top and the factory option Karmann hardtop, make this a highly desirable Porsche even with its standard specification 60hp 1582cc engine. By some standards it is expensive, but not when the full list of equipment and the high quality restoration are taken into account.
