Market commentary
There is a lot to like about this early 2-liter 911S, and a lot to fear from its 180hp and short wheelbase handling. Coveted by Porsche collectors today, this 911S has wonderful attributes, select provenance and is thoughtfully presented in very good condition without having needed restoration. The catalog says it 'ticks all the boxes' and that is true, especially at this reasonable price.
