The soul of Porsche’s legendary Carrera 2.7 RS lives on within the Carrera 2.7 MFI.
Serious automotive enthusiasts consider Porsche’s Carrera 2.7 RS to be the archetypical 911…and deservedly so. The cars are light, responsive, purposeful and the type 911/83 engine delivers scintillating performance. Over the last 40 years the 2.7 RS has been covered in dozens of books and articles. Yet its successor – a car with the identical engine and similar DNA – remains either unknown or misunderstood even by long-time Porsche enthusiasts. That car is the Carrera 2.7 MFI. This book tells the complete story of these remarkable, unheralded sports cars.
The Carrera 2.7 book has been meticulously researched using the Porsche factory
archives, private collections, period documentation and intensive study. The
book attempts to cover everything an owner, restorer, historian or enthusiast
would want to know about this intriguing 911 variant. Content includes
comprehensive discussion of original options, photos of key details, insights
into factory production, competition history and a considerable amount of
material never before published. Although primarily focused on the top-of-the-line
mechanically-fuel injected Carrera 2.7, this book will also prove valuable to
enthusiasts of any of the Porsche 911 and 930 Turbo models produced during the
mid-1970s.
