About this car
The 1995 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet stands out with its red exterior finish and black leather interior, paired with just 66 miles on the odometer. This example carries the 3.6L flat-six engine and six-speed manual transmission in rear-wheel-drive configuration, along with the full power top that includes automatic latching and unlatching.
The body features a welded unitized construction with double-sided zinc-galvanized steel, a speed-dependent extendable rear spoiler, third brake light, tinted glass with graduated windshield, modular ellipsoid headlights, front apron with integrated fog lights, electrically adjustable and heated outside mirrors, and halogen headlights with heated washer nozzles.
Inside, the cabin includes partial leather reclining bucket seats with electric height adjustment, leather-covered steering wheel, backlit analog instrumentation with tachometer and oil pressure, temperature and fuel level gauges, AM/FM digital display stereo cassette radio, climate control with automatic temperature, cruise control, power windows, rear window defroster, trip odometer, and a six-function computerized driver-information center.
Power comes from the 3.6L SOHC EFI aluminum alloy air-cooled six-cylinder engine with digital motor electronics and dual knock sensors, routed through the six-speed manual transmission and hydraulically activated single-disc dry clutch. The chassis uses independent MacPherson strut front suspension, independent multi-link rear suspension, front and rear stabilizer bars, and power-assisted four-wheel ventilated disc brakes with ABS and brake pad wear indicator.

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.
