The seller offers for sale this 1976 Porsche 911 Targa, a classic powered by a 2.7-litre 6-cylinder petrol engine paired with a manual transmission. Originally delivered in the USA, the car was later imported to the Netherlands, where it received fresh registration and European homologation. The mechanical components have been rebuilt. The seller reports smooth starting, no smoke, no unusual engine or gearbox noises, and trouble-free shifting. New tyres have recently been fitted, adding to road readiness. The bodywork was repainted some years ago and now shows slight age-related marks. The leather interior presents with modest wear consistent with age but remains in good condition. No rust or accident damage is known, and lights function correctly. This example offers the engaging character of a classic 911 with strong mechanical reliability.
The Porsche 911 of the mid-1970s represents a defining era in the model’s evolution. With its air-cooled flat-six and unmistakable silhouette, the 911 continued to deliver a rewarding driving experience rooted in precision and balance. The 2.7-litre versions are appreciated for their lively engine response, low weight and pure, mechanical feel. Over the years, these models have become cherished by enthusiasts who value authenticity and iconic design. With a broad international enthusiast base and strong collector interest, a well-maintained 911 from this period remains desirable for both spirited driving and long-term appreciation.
