The Porsche 911, also known as the Nine Eleven or simply the Eleven, is the Stuttgart-based company’s most famous sports car and is considered the epitome of the brand.

The Porsche 911 Short Wheelbase Coupé offered here was delivered new in April 1966 by Sonauto Paris, in Polo Red and black leatherette, to an American with an address at a 5-star hotel in Paris. According to the Kardex extract from Porsche, the car remained in Europe until January 1967 and later went to the USA with its first owner. In 2012–2013, this 911 Coupé made its way from the US first to Italy, where it was finally purchased by a Swiss Porsche collector and imported to Switzerland.

This Porsche 911 SWB Coupé was recently mechanically refurbished by a well-known Porsche specialist in Ticino. The engine and transmission were refreshed but not opened, as they were in very good condition. All the mechanics and electrics on the underside of the car, in the engine compartment, and in the trunk were overhauled, and the dashboard was reupholstered true to the original. It is matching numbers and color and, fresh from MOT veteran and newly tyred, is in excellent, well-maintained and very original collector’s condition. The Kardex extract from Porsche with all the facts of the initial delivery, US title and an expert opinion/valuation report from 2018, which certifies the car’s overall condition as 2, are available.

The first 911 version, which went into series production in September 1964, was the so-called original model presented at the 1963 IAA with a 130 hp 2-liter six-cylinder boxer engine.
Even when stationary, this 911 is a tribute to the original, the clarity of the mechanics, and the art of omission.
