On the Yellow "74".. A 3.2L apparently without being twin plug, but "estimated at 290hp?" I have to call BS on that one. Nice car.. but not a $60K car. Maybe a $30K car but even that seems about $10K too high given its lack of originality.

Can't prove the Red one wasn't and RS at some time but man I am skeptical about that one too..

As for the white one? Who puts a $200K car on a busy city street to take pictures of it. Can't prove its not an original RS, but as someone else mentioned, at $200K it better be exactly as it left Porsche 35 years ago.

How long has this guy been in business? His prices are definitely high, but if he has been there a long time with repeast customers, there could be a reason he commands premium prices. Just a thought. I don't know anything about him.

The guages are correct for a '73 Carrera which was basically a ROW model that could not imported into the US.

I meant to post that as a positive. (but, a =/ the).

I have always wondered how many were RHD. Anyone know?

Brian 96C2

117 RHD total with 17 in M471 (Sport) and 100 in M472 (Touring).

Thanks Brian,
Do you have the Carrera RS book (by Gruber and Konradsheim)? I've searched for the book for years, and I think they made less copies than Porsche made of the M471.

The white RS looks like it's got a carpet kit put in it from an '83 911SC...

Yeah I have Kondradsheim/Gurber's book. Those guys did a great job putting this book together back in the early 90's. The value on the English version copies have gone through the roof lately if you can find one. The German language version's seems to be much easier to find and cost less. Maybe this is a good opportunity for you to learn German.
