Few Porsche 911 models are as iconic as the Carrera RS 2.7. At its launch in 1972, it was the fastest German street-legal car and was first developed as a homologation special so Porsche could take it racing. It is now among the most desirable Porsches and values have soared, with Porsche San Francisco asking for this one $995,995.
This 911 Carrera RS 2.7 is finished in an Olive shade and has only been driven 6,041 miles (9,722 km) since new. That’s a remarkable figure for a vehicle of this age and one that is said to be as enjoyable to drive as it is. We have no idea how the car’s previous owners have resisted the temptation to drive it regularly.
The listing doesn’t provide any details about the car’s ownership history. It does note that it has the optional 85-liter (22-gallon) fuel tank, a set of 15×6-inch Fuchs-style forged wheels with 185/70 tires, and a spare wheel. It also comes with a full service history so interested buyers can rest easy knowing that it has been well-maintained over the decades.
As with other Carrera RS 2.7 models, the car rocks a 2.7-liter six-cylinder engine delivering 210 hp at 6,300 rpm and 188 lb-ft (255 Nm) of torque at 5,100 rpm. While this engine is massively underpowered compared to a current 911, it still has plenty of grunt for a car that weighs just 960 kg (2,116 lbs). 0-62 (100 km/h) comes in 5.8 seconds and the top speed is set at 152 mph (245 km/h).

Few elements of the Carrera RS 2.7 are more iconic than its ducktail spoiler and this car retains its one. The interior also looks immaculate, hardly a surprise given how little the car has been driven.
