About this car
The 1984 Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 Targa presents a matching-numbers example finished in its factory Slate Blue Metallic exterior over a Dark Blue interior. This air-cooled 911 combines classic proportions with the open-air Targa design, featuring a removable roof panel, Targa bar, and wraparound rear glass window.
Power comes from a 3.2-liter flat-six engine paired with a 915 five-speed manual transaxle. Fuel injection supplies the engine, while four-wheel disc brakes handle stopping duties. The car rides on 16-inch Fuchs-style wheels, and a single exhaust outlet completes the rear profile along with rear rubber bumperettes, dual side-view mirrors, and a fender-mounted antenna.
Inside, bucket seats face classic VDO instrumentation that includes an analog clock. Air conditioning, power windows, and cruise control provide comfort, while a Kenwood radio, glove box, and door pockets add convenience. A spare tire is included with the vehicle.

The Porsche 911 Carrera G-Series, produced between 1974 and 1989, represents a significant evolution of the iconic 911 lineup. Over its 15-year production run, approximately 196,000 units were manufactured across various trims, including the Carrera, making it one of the longest-running generations of the 911. The G-Series introduced key updates like impact bumpers to meet U.S. safety regulations and galvanized steel bodies for improved corrosion resistance, enhancing longevity—a critical factor for collectors.
Engine options varied, with the Carrera models typically featuring air-cooled flat-six engines ranging from 2.7 to 3.2 liters, producing between 175 and 231 horsepower depending on the year and market. Performance highlights include the 1984-1989 Carrera 3.2, which achieved 0-60 mph in around 5.6 seconds. Notable for collectors are rare variants like the 911 Turbo (930) and special editions such as the 1988 Commemorative Edition, built to celebrate 250,000 911s produced. Values have risen steadily, with well-maintained examples often fetching over $50,000, and rare models exceeding $100,000 at auctions. The G-Series’ blend of classic design, durability, and historical importance as a transitional model makes it highly sought after in the exotic car market.
