featured with matching numbers, an example finished in its factory
color Sand Beige (6807) complemented by a Cinnamon interior.

the model was temporarily discontinued, this coupe combines the
classic early Porsche design language with the improved drivability

year.Highlights:- Matching Numbers Engine- Karmann-Built- LWB (Long

flat-four engine paired with Weber dual carburetors, this 912
delivers optimal power delivery and lightweight handling
characteristics that distinguish the model from its six-cylinder
counterpart. The 5-speed manual transaxle allows drivers to fully
enjoy the car's responsive nature, while four-wheel disc brakes
provide confident stopping capability.The exterior retains the
clean and timeless styling that defines the early Porsche lineup.
Finished in Sand Beige, the body is accented by chrome trim, chrome
hubcaps with Porsche crests, rear rubber bumper guards, and a
single-exit exhaust with a chrome tip. Additional details include a
driver-side Durant-style mirror, pop-out rear quarter windows, and
15-inch steel wheels that complement the understated appearance of
the car.Inside, the Cinnamon interior presents a warm and
period-correct atmosphere. The cabin features low-back bucket seats
with adjustable headrests, rear jump seats, a 4-spoke steering
wheel, and a 5-gauge VDO instrument cluster positioned directly in
the driver's line of sight. Additional interior appointments
include an analog clock, door pockets, manual crank windows, and a
period-correct Blaupunkt radio paired with a fender-mounted
antenna, all contributing to the authentic late-1960s Porsche
driving experience.One interesting fact about the 912 is that its
lighter four-cylinder engine gave the car a more balanced weight
distribution than the contemporary 911, making it particularly
well-regarded for its nimble road manners and predictable handling.
As the final-year example of the original 912 series, this
Long-Wheelbase coupe represents an appealing combination of classic
styling and improved chassis refinement. Whether added to a Porsche
collection or enjoyed as a vintage sports car, this Porsche 912
remains a rewarding and approachable air-cooled Porsche that is
mechanically sound. For $79,950 Read more
