1965 (MY66) Porsche 911 Sunroof Coupe

We are pleased to offer on behalf of one of our clients this rare 1965 (MY 66) Porsche 911 Sunroof Coupe.
For many years, 2shores has been offering selected, finest grade examples of air-cooled Porsches. This very early Porsche 911 Coupe is one of those examples!

Production of the Porsche 911 began in September 1964, with the first 911s exported to the US in February 1965.The first models of the 911 had a rear-mounted 130 hp, Type 901/01 flat-6 engine, in the “boxer” configuration like the 356, the engine is air-cooled and displaces 1,991 cc (2.0 L) as compared to the 356’s four-cylinder, 1,582 cc (1.6 L) unit. The car had four seats although the rear seats were small and it is usually called a 2+2 rather than a four-seater. A four or five-speed “Type 901” manual transmission was available. The styling was largely penned by Ferdinand “Butzi” Porsche, son of Ferdinand “Ferry” Porsche. Butzi Porsche initially came up with a notchback design with proper space for seating two rear passengers but Ferry Porsche insisted that the 356’s successor was to use its fastback styling. 7 prototypes were built based on Butzi Porsche’s original design and were internally called the Porsche 754 T7. Erwin Komenda, the leader of the Porsche car body construction department who initially objected, was also involved later in the design.

The car on offer is an early production vehicle (VIN# 302352) and was finished in light ivory (6404) over black hounds tooth interior. It is a very rare, factory sunroof Coupe and has been restored in Germany to collector condition.

The car was delivered new on September 22nd 1965 to German dealer Mahag in Munich and as far as our research goes, this is one of the first 40 Porsche 911s to ever have a factory sunroof installed.
This Porsche found its way to the US and has had three owners in the US as far as our research goes. Our customer bought the Porsche in 2012 and brought it back to Germany to have it completely restored to factory specifications.

The result is a gorgeous early sunroof Coupe in a fantastic color combination.

This is a very rare opportunity to acquire such an early Sunroof Porsche 911 with all the unique features these early cars have.

The car is fully numbers matching with original Kardex card and Porsche Certificate of Authenticity.

Please study all the photos closely to evaluate the condition of this car!
