Now available for auction is this 1988 Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe finished in Guards Red over a black partial leather interior. Equipped with the desirable G50 5-speed manual gearbox, this 1988 example also came factory optioned with front and rear spoilers, a limited-slip differential, and 16” forged alloy wheels. The car is said to have been under the care of its last owner since 2007 and has been preserved with mostly original paint and all factory labels remaining in place. The clutch is also said to have been recently replaced along with a major service including leak down and compression tests. A well-equipped and nicely presented example, this Carrera is now being offered for auction by its seller out of California while showing approximately 66k miles on the odometer, accompanied by the original books and manuals, window sticker, service records, and a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity.
This 911 is presented in the traditional shade of Guards Red and comes with factory optioned front and rear spoilers. Some minor rock chips are noted on the hood and the driver’s side rear quarter panel is believed to have been previously refinished, detailed images are provided in the photo gallery along with paint meter readings and a clean CARFAX report. This Carrera retains factory 16” Fuchs alloy wheels that come dressed in Cooper RS-3R tires showing date codes from 2020.
Inside, you will find a well-preserved black partial leather interior factory equipped with automatic heating control, an electric sliding sunroof, cruise control, and a Blaupunkt “Reno” radio. A small blemish is noted on the base of the driver’s seat which appears to have been previously repaired. The A/C system is also reported to be fully functional having undergone a recent service.
This Carrera is equipped with an air-cooled 3.2L flat-six engine that sends up to 217 HP to the rear wheels through a desirable G50 5-speed manual transmission with a factory-optioned limited-slip differential. The original dealer service booklet shows maintenance history dating from new up until 2007, and additional records are available dating from 2001 to the present. A major service is said to have been recently carried out including a new clutch as well as leak down and compression tests.
This sale will include the original owner’s manuals, window sticker, dealer service booklet, toolkit, spare tire, service records, and a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity. Highlighting sought-after factory features and classic styling, this 911 would make an excellent choice for any air-cooled purist.

Service documents have been uploaded to the gallery, for anyone interested. Just a note, our pricing as a dealer is wholesale, so the work and parts would cost a considerable amount more to do it yourself.
Here to answer any questions if anyone has them. This is easily one of the nicest driving G50's we've had in some time and with the amount of work we've done, it should be. Will be uploading the documents for the work today. Excellent compression, great gearbox (as you know), and plenty of power. Happy bidding and reach out, if needed. Thanks!
