The seller offers for sale this 1991 Porsche 911 Carrera 2 Targa, powered by a 3.6-litre six-cylinder engine, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. This matching-numbers example is presented in its original specification, finished in red over a tan leather interior, and shows 82,500 miles with a full maintenance history since new. Originally delivered new to the United States, the car has been resident in Belgium since 2014 and has been maintained by a Porsche dealership throughout that time, most recently with an engine revision in 2025 alongside new tyres and a new battery.
The car retains its glass targa roof, a signature feature of the 964-generation Targa that replaced the removable roof panel of earlier 911s with a fixed, tinted glass section set within a black-trimmed roll bar carrying the “Targa” script. Inside, the tan leather trim extends across the seats, door cards and centre console, complemented by “Porsche” branded floor mats, while the small rear seats add practical occasional-use space rare among open-top sports cars of this era.
Introduced in 1989, the 964 marked the most extensive overhaul the 911 had received since its debut, with roughly 85 percent new components beneath a familiar silhouette. Coil-spring suspension, power steering and, on later cars, ABS brought the model firmly into the modern era while keeping its air-cooled six-cylinder heart intact. The Carrera 2 brought that update to the rear-wheel-drive 911 faithful will always associate with the model, and the Targa body style, offered alongside the coupe and cabriolet, gave buyers open-air motoring without sacrificing the structural rigidity of the closed car. A manual gearbox, as fitted here, is the rarer and most engaging way to specify a Carrera 2 Targa from this era.
On the road, the naturally aspirated flat-six and its five-speed manual gearbox give this Carrera 2 the direct, mechanical character that made the 964 a favourite among enthusiasts bridging the classic air-cooled 911s and their more modern successors. With its documented history, recent mechanical attention and glass targa roof, this car is set up to be enjoyed exactly as intended, whether on longer touring drives or with the roof open on a good day.
