Equipment
2,681/210hp, 5-speed, wide Fuchs wheels, Pirelli tires, Porsche CoA.
Condition
Excellent paint. Very good bright trim and interior. Crisp gauges. There are small chips on both back corners of the hood and on the left windshield post, otherwise it is like new with many Lightweight details such as the seats, door panels and lightweight glass. The engine is believed to be a restamp, not original. Lloyd Hawkins collection.
Market commentary
Sold by RM at Amelia in 2002 when it was still in upgraded RSR configuration for $93,000. Offered by Gooding here three years ago when it was bid to $800,000. Any Carrera RS 2.7 is a valuable car and an authentic Lightweight is more by a factor of six or more. There were only 200 Lightweights out of a total of 1,580 RS 2.7s. A choice Porsche that brought an appropriate price.
