Model history
The Porsche 911 Carrera 3.0 was produced from 1976 to 1977 and was an important model variant in the history of the 911. It represented a transitional phase between the earlier 2.7-liter models and the later SC models. The Carrera 3.0's 3.0-liter six-cylinder boxer engine was a further development of the 911 Turbo engine, but without a turbocharger. With an output of 200 hp, it offered impressive performance and improved durability thanks to its aluminum engine block. The Carrera 3.0 combined classic 911 design features with technical sophistication and was very popular with enthusiasts and collectors alike. The optional rear spoiler emphasized its sporty character and contributed to improved aerodynamics.

Comments of this past auction
Technik: Zum Modelljahr 1976 wurde der Hubraum des 911 Carrera auf 3 Liter erhöht. Bei einer Drehzahl von 6000/min leistete der Motor bei dieser Version 147 kW (200 PS), also etwas weniger als beim Vorgängermodell Carrera 2.7 RS. Der Motor mit 110 kW (150 PS) wurde nicht mehr angeboten. Der schwächste erhältliche Motor war die 2,7-Liter-Maschine des Vorjahres-911 S, deren Leistung jetzt ohne technische Änderung mit 121 kW (165 PS) angegeben wurde. Die für beide Modelle auf Wunsch lieferbare halbautomatische Sportomatic hatte nur noch drei Gänge. Tragende Karosserieteile waren beidseitig feuerverzinkt und Porsche konnte daher eine Langzeitgarantie von sechs Jahren gegen Durchrostung anbieten. LG Tom
