1971 Porsche 911 E – The Toybox

Undeniably the ultimate Porsche body shape, this former American 911 E will turn heads wherever it goes, and bring its new owner plenty of joy.

The 1971 911 E produced 155bhp, a significant gain from the 911 T’s 125bhp, achieved by the use of Bosch mechanical fuel injection and 9.1:1 compression.

Introduced in 1970, the long wheel-base 911 gained superior stability, and the iconic Fuchs alloy wheels, while retaining the  long bonnet styling.

This left-hand drive 911 E was imported from Arizona, USA to Victoria in 2008, with import documentation showing that it had only travelled 61,653 miles. Finished in Silver Metallic, contrasting the original style black trim, the Porsche’s cockpit features its original steering wheel and an upgraded Pioneer CD audio system.

Since it’s arrival, the Porsche has travelled just under 17,000 miles, and has been maintained by Auto Coupe, with the most recent works completed April 2024. Supplied with a colour-matched 911 S front bumper bar, the correct 911 E bumper has just been refurbished, and reinstalled.

Fitted with a non matching-numbers but correct 2.2-litre engine and five-speed 911 gearbox, this nimble long-bonnet 911 is a true sports car, providing a light and precise drive, and that iconic flat-six howl when under acceleration that is so much a part of the early 911 experience.

This 911 E will provide you the opportunity to drive an iconic, analog sports car, with a superb degree of satisfaction as the Porsche reacts to your input. Perfect for spirited club runs, going out for a country lunch or just a local errand run, all at an affordable price.
