Equipment
2681/210hp, 5-speed, blue Fuchs wheels, Porsche Certificate of Authenticity.
Condition
Represented as matching numbers. Restored in original colors 10 years ago. Very good paint. The only notable blemish is a chip on the driver's door edge at door handle height. The engine compartment and underbody are immaculate and the interior exhibits very little use. A beautiful Carrera RS with little to pick on.
Market commentary
These cars established the tradition of lightened, hardcore, brightly painted 911s that Porsche continues to this day. Carrera RS 2.7s came in two flavors - "Lightweight" and "Touring". The Lightweights trimmed 200 pounds in weight off the Touring version, and just 200 of the 1580 cars built were ordered in the Lightweight trim. They're also worth about twice as much as the Touring even if the driving experience is basically identical. This Touring model sold on the soft side for its condition.
