1968 Porsche 911 L Soft Window Targa Irish Green (6806) with Black Leatherette interior. Matching Chassis (number 11860034) and engine (number 3080086). Certificate of Authenticity on hand which indicates that the Car was built 8.9.1967 and is the 34th example produced which makes this a very early production 911 L Soft Window.The COA also shows that the car was fitted new with Ventilated Chrome Wheels and Phoenix Tires.It was purchased new in Germany as a US model and most of the cars life was spent in California where it was purchased by a Porsche Collector 3 years ago with a dry non-rusty body only needing mechanical/interior refreshing. The whole car was completely restored with every system being gone thru (including total replacement of all soft window components) on the car to bring it to the current spectacular condition. There are receipts for all the work including the engine dyno run after the engine was rebuilt.
In a wonderfully restored condition this car would make a great addition to a Porsche collection or just as a great special car. The Soft Window Option really creates the feeling of open air motoring making this car a real joy to drive. Normally 1968 US Spec 911 L cars are equipped with side markers, we have new markers, but chose not to install them for aesthetic reasons,they can easily be put on. Also the sunvisors are currently not installed. We have not found a number on the tranny case. The 911 L was a one year only model for Porsche and many people consider it a detuned "S".

Why you must buy an air-cooled Porsche 911 now
Fri, 14 Feb 2014"Because" might be a good response to our headline, but as a vintage (purists might call 'proper') Porsche 911 is hardly cheap, we suspect you'll need a better explanation than that. Enter Drive editor Mike Spinelli.
Spinelli sits down with Zac Moseley and Mick Prichinello from Classic Car Club Manhattan to first explain why the market for old, air-cooled 911s has gotten so hot over the past few years, and to discuss if it's a bubble that's about to burst. Following that, this video is really is just three guys sitting around talking about old Porsches for 35 minutes. Which, you know, we're pretty onboard with.
Scroll down and have a look at the latest episode of After/Drive, from Drive.
2014 Porsche 911 Turbo and Turbo S debut [w/video]
Fri, 03 May 2013
The Turbo S will dispatch the Nürburgring in "well under seven and a half minutes."
Porsche is celebrating the 40th anniversary of its 911 Turbo in the best possible way: by announcing the next-generation of the rear-engined beast. The 2014 Porsche 911 Turbo and Turbo S are here, and man oh man, do they seem like the business.
Porsche busts out new Boxster GTS and Cayman GTS
Wed, 19 Mar 2014Baby 911. The poor man's Porsche. That's what they called the Boxster when it debuted some 20 years ago. They said the same of the first Cayman when it arrived a decade later, but they stopped saying it when the latest iterations hit the scene two years ago. That's because Zuffenhausen's entry-level models have long since stepped out of their big brother's shadow and into their own. And that's all the more true of the new Boxster GTS and Cayman GTS.
Based on the Boxster S and Cayman S, the new GTS models benefit from an enhanced 3.4-liter flat six that produces 330 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque in the roadster or 340 hp and 280 lb-ft in the coupe - representing an increase of 15 hp and 7 lb-ft in either model. Both also come with the Sport Chrono package as standard, along with adjustable suspension and 20-inch alloys, blacked out to match the dynamic headlight surrounds and other muted trim.
Those disappointed by the unavailability of a manual transmission in the fire-prone 911 GT3 will be pleased to note that a six-speed manual comes standard, but those enamored of letting a pair of clutches shift themselves seamlessly will want to spring for the optional seven-speed DCT. So equipped and with launch control engaged, the Boxster GTS will rocket from a standstill to 62 miles per hour in 4.7 seconds, while the incrementally lighter, more powerful Cayman will hit it in 4.6. Either way you're looking at a third of a second quicker than the Boxster/Cayman S. There's also a 20-millimeter lowered suspension on offer for track-day enthusiasts.
