1976 Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 MFI Sondermodell
- Engine
- 2.7L flat-six with Bosch mechanical fuel injection, 210 bhp (Type 911/83)
- Colour
- Silver metallic over black leatherette
The 1976 Porsche Carrera 2.7 MFI is among the rarest road-going 911s ever produced — one of just 113 sunroof-delete coupes assembled as homologation Sondermodells exclusively for the German market, each fitted with the RS-specification Type 911/83 mechanical fuel injection flat-six. Believed to be the 23rd example built, it left the factory in Silbermetallic over black leatherette and later entered the well-known collection of Porsche enthusiast Magnus Walker in 2009. It retains its original engine and is accompanied by a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity.
