Updated 9/19/2013: Price reduced to a more realistic €184,000 (approx. $249k USD).

Posted 9/13/2013: 1976 Carrera 2.7 MFI #9030 is being offered for sale by a private party in Germany. First registered August 1976 this Carrera was distributed via Glöckler in Frankfurt, Germany as a special order model (aka "sondermodell"). Painted in its original Continental Orange color, which looks good with chrome trim, however likely converted to RSR front and rear flares at some point in its life. Paint in the front boot looks original but has had at least one exterior repaint. Includes books, pouch, and some documentation.

Description from the seller:

Dieses Porsche 911 Carrera 2,7 RS befindet sich in einem einmaligen Sammlerzustand MATCHING NUMBERS!! Es verließ Zuffenhausen als eine Sonderserie mit dem 2,7 Carrera RS Motor und befindet sich heute noch in seinem einmaligen Neuwagenzustand dazu absolut unfallfrei, H-Zulassung alle Dokumente Historie sind vorhanden, ZF 40% Sperrdifferenzial, Continentalorange, RSR Bremsen M491…. Das dürfte der beste dieser seltensten Sonderserie 2,7 Carrera RS weltweit sein!!!!

Racing seats have replaced the original black leatherette with tweed inlays. Only official options were manual antenna & speakers (M440) and 5-speed (M481). However, the '76 Carrera 2.7 MFI sondermodell came standard with a number of sporty options including the 210hp 911/83 RS-spec engine, Bilstein shock absorbers, limited slip diff, among other options. Ducktail fitted instead of plain decklid or whaletail, though tail options never appear on the '76 Carrera 2.7 MFI sondermodell options list even if delivered new from the factory.  Engine appears to be very original with all the right details.  RSR style wheels not original. Missing driver side flag mirror but this would be easy to add. Price seems optimistic.

Featured in 911 Carrera 2.7: Im Toten Winkel article from unknown German magazine. Appeared without ducktail, dual driver and passenger mirrors, RSR look, and Porsche side script.

Offered for €254,000 (approx. $337k USD).
