About this car

The 1988 Porsche 911 Carrera Turbo coupe presents a classic G-Series silhouette finished in striking Red over a Black leather interior. This well-preserved example has traveled 65,175 miles and is powered by a 3L turbocharged flat-six engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. Its purposeful stance and iconic proportions continue to define the 911 lineage decades after production.

Inside, the cabin combines driver-focused ergonomics with period-appropriate luxury. Leather upholstery covers the bucket seats while a leather-trimmed steering wheel adds a tactile connection to the road. Instrumentation includes a prominent tachometer and analog clock, all set against the dark Black theme that contrasts elegantly with the exterior hue.

Practical features enhance daily usability without compromising the car's sporting character. Power windows, heated and power-adjustable side mirrors, and rear window defogger provide modern convenience, while front fog lights and approach lamps improve visibility in varied conditions. Intermittent wipers and tinted glass further refine the driving experience.

Combustion

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.
