Selling a 1984 Porsche 911

 

Some major changes to the Porsche 911 lineup took place during 1984. The Porsche 911SC, which had long been considered the base-model in the lineup, was replaced with the Carrera, and the 911 also gained a new 3.2L engine. The easiest way to spot a 1984 Porsche 911 is by the “Carrera” lettering that now appeared on the engine lid rather than the previous “911SC” lettering. The new engine was now capable of producing 200 horsepower and was equipped with Bosch’s latest Motronic fuel injection. Presenting owners with a 0 to 60mph of approximately 5.7 seconds and a top speed of 146mph, the Porsche 911 Carrera was just the change the 911 needed to stay current in an ever-expanding luxury sports car market. Buyers during this time were also presented with a new ‘Turbo” body package for the 911 Carrera Coupes that mimicked the look of the Turbo. Often called the “poor man’s Turbo,” this popular kit also included the famous whale tail spoiler and gave buyers the look of the Turbo without the increased price tag.

Whether your classic is a rolling chassis that’s been sitting under debris and dust for decades or a pristine, mint-condition restoration, always have your car cleaned and ready for buyers to view. Some sellers also choose to have a third-part inspection done prior to the sale. This not only helps you give buyers the most complete picture of your classic, but also can help you find minor repairs that, if you complete, could increase the value of your classic. Buyers are also interested in the history of your classic. Do you know who owned the car prior to you? Do you have maintenance records or restoration receipts? Providing documentation is another small way to boost interest and attraction to your particular 1984 911.
