Selling a 1973 Porsche 911E Coupe

 

The 1973 Porsche 911E Coupe and Targa models would be considered the last of the “middle-years” cars and would be considered part of the F-Series of 911 production. One of the most useful changes that would come about during 1973 would be the addition of strengthening beams in the doors, which gave improved protection against side impact collisions. This, of course, happened during a time when the United States (one of Porsche’s biggest markets) would be passing new regulations on safety and emissions. Other small visual clues that a 911E is a 1973 model-year include headlight and taillight surrounds that were black rather than chrome, as well as front quarter grilles finished with the same material. Cast aluminum wheels also debuted in 1973, which were cheaper. Boasting five chunky spokes, these wheels became known as the “cookie cutter” wheels. When it comes time to sell your 1973 Porsche 911E Coupe, these are some of the characteristics that buyers will be looking for to ensure your car is authentic.
