Description
Representing the later evolution of Porsche’s celebrated Carrera 3.2, the 1988 model benefits from the desirable G50 5-speed manual transaxle introduced the previous year, paired here with the air-cooled 3.2-liter flat-six and classic removable Targa roof. This 1988 Porsche 911 Carrera Targa is finished in Black over Champagne Special Leather and remained with its original owner until 1996 before being acquired by its previous long-term caretaker. Accompanied by its original window sticker and owner’s manuals, it retains a largely factory presentation and is equipped with 16” Fuchs wheels, power-adjustable front seats, cruise control, air conditioning, and a Blaupunkt cassette stereo. Showing approximately 53k miles, this Carrera Targa has benefited from extensive recent servicing addressing the braking system, air conditioning, suspension, tires, and other components, and is now being offered for auction in Tennessee.
Finished in Black (L700), the exterior is complemented by a matching removable roof panel and black Targa bar, with the Targa top seals having been replaced as part of recent servicing. Equipment includes integrated fog lights, an optional rear window wiper, and heated power-adjustable side mirrors. The seller reports no significant dents or scratches, with only a few minor touched-up areas noted. A small section of the left rear fender shows evidence of previous cosmetic attention, including sanding marks observed by a detailer and higher paint-meter readings in that area, while readings across the surrounding panels are reported to be consistent. The car rides on 16” forged Fuchs wheels with black centers wrapped in Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus tires, with the rear pair displaying 2023 date codes and the fronts dated 2024. The seller adds that the undercarriage was recently cleaned using dry-ice blasting and the exterior was treated to paint correction and ceramic coating. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.
