About this car
The 1992 Porsche 911 Carrera RS America is a white 2-door coupe built on the 964 platform with a 3.6-liter flat-six and manual transmission. This RS America variant carries the fixed-plane rear spoiler, 17-inch pressure-cast 5-spoke alloy wheels front and rear, and performance-tuned suspension components that include MacPherson-strut front suspension with alloy lower arms and cast-aluminum semi-trailing arms at the rear.
Power reaches the rear wheels through an unassisted rack-and-pinion steering system and power-assisted four-wheel ventilated disc brakes with ABS. The 20.3-gallon fuel tank feeds the engine, which uses a hydraulically activated single-disc dry clutch, fully integrated electronic ignition, and a three-way catalyst with oxygen sensor. Halogen headlights sit above a front apron that integrates fog lights, while tinted glass and the zinc-galvanized steel body complete the exterior.
Inside, sport seats with electric height adjustment face a leather-covered steering wheel and backlit analog instrumentation that includes tachometer, oil-pressure, oil-temperature, oil-level, and fuel-level gauges. Power windows, central locking with alarm, rear-window defroster, dual sun visors, and an analog quartz clock are standard, along with dual airbags and three-point inertia-reel seatbelts.

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.
