Revered as the ultimate development of the original 911, the 3.2 Carrera was the most flexible and usable of Butzi Porsche’s original design since the launch of the original 911 back in 1963. Launched in 1984, and reviving the ‘Carrera’ name for the first time since 1977, these were the definitive 1980’s sports cars. The all-alloy flat six engine received a final stretch to 3164cc. All 3.2 Carreras feature galvanised bodies which, together with Porsche’s legendary build quality, ensure that these classics are long lasting.

The Porsche 911 had dominated in most motorsport classes particularly with its Kremer Racing RSR which dominated at the 1975 Le Mans 24hr race. This created a huge customer demand for modified road going versions. Several Porsche tuning specialists entered the market including probably the most respected DP Motorsport.
