1971 Porsche 911 E Coupe
Seller's description
Upon the introduction of the so-called B-series in the model year 1969, Porsche enlarged the vehicles' wheelbase (LWB), in order to improve the handling performance, and increased the product range. In this context the 911 E (fuel injection) was introduced to fill the gap between the 911 T (Touring) and the 911 S (Sport). The 911 E had the same features as the 911 S and also had, just like the 911 S, a mechanic fuel injection by Bosch (MFI), however, for the sake of a better elasticity, it had a smaller engine than the 911 S. Porsche was so successful with the adjustment of the E engines that many Porsche fans preferred the 911 E-models to the S-models, for their better suitability for daily use, especially in the lower speed range. Production of the E-models began in 1969, initially with the older 2.0 liter engines and 140 hp. As of the model year 1970 the cubic capacity was increased to 2.2 liters/ 155 hp and as of 1972 to 2.4 liters/ 165 hp. With the introduction of the G-model series in 1974, the production of the E-models was stopped.
This model offered here is an opportunity to get one of the rare E-models in an almost untouched original condition. The E was first shipped to the U.S.A. and returned to Germany in 2012. The interior is in an original condition with a subtle patina. From carpets over instruments and seats to the interior rooftop – everything is well-preserved. Only the dash panel has some isolated heat cracks. The body is likewise well-preserved and comes in an almost corrosion-free condition. The underbody still has most of the original factory-made PVC-underbody protection, the coating has been mended only in the front wheel guards and at the bottom of the tank. The Porsche has neither welded spots nor perforation corrosion. The Porsche got a new finish a couple of years ago, today it shows traces of wear and is overall patinated. The 911 E had regular services, the engine runs smoothly. Engine and gearbox were built the same year, so it is likely that they are matching numbers.
