911 F (1963-1973)

Technical data

The original Porsche 911, pronounced "nine eleven" (German: Neunelfer), represents a pinnacle of luxury sports cars manufactured by Porsche AG of Stuttgart, Germany. Developed as a more robust, spacious, and comfortable replacement for the Porsche 356, this iconic model debuted publicly in 1963 under the designation "Porsche 901." However, due to a protest from Peugeot regarding exclusive naming rights to car names formed by three numbers with a zero in the middle, Porsche changed it to "911." Early versions of the 911 featured an air-cooled, rear-mounted, 2.0 L (1,991 cc) 130 PS (96 kW; 128 hp) flat-six "boxer" engine, similar to the 356's four-cylinder 1.6 L unit, paired with a five-speed manual "Type 901" transmission. In 1967, Porsche introduced the more potent 160 PS (118 kW; 158 hp) 911S, accompanied by the debut of alloy wheels from Fuchs in a distinctive 5-leaf design. The same year witnessed the introduction of the Targa version featuring a stainless steel-clad roll bar. The 110 PS (81 kW; 108 hp) 911T, for "Touring," was launched in October 1967 for the 1968 model year. The standard 130 PS (96 kW; 128 hp) model received a slight upgrade and was renamed the 911L (for "Luxus"). In 1969, the slightly lengthened B series was introduced in which the rear wheels were moved 57 mm aft, increasing wheelbase from 2,211 to 2,268 mm (87.0 to 89.3 in) to enhance the car’s handling. Fuel injection was introduced for both the 911S and a new intermediate model, the 911E, which replaced the short-lived 911L. For the MY 1970, the engines of all 911s were enlarged to 2,195 cc (2.195 L), resulting in power outputs uprated to 125 PS (92 kW; 123 hp) in the 911T, 155 PS (114 kW; 153 hp) in the 911E, and 180 PS (130 kW; 178 hp) in the 911S. The 1972–1973 model years saw the introduction of the same models—T, E, and S—with a larger 2,341 cc (2.341 L) engine. As power and torque increased, the 2.4 L cars also received a newer, more robust transmission, identified by its Porsche type number 915. The 1973 Carrera RS models, cherished by collectors, are widely regarded as the pinnacle of classic 911s. The designation "RS" stands for Rennsport in German, translating to "racing sport." Compared to a standard 911S, the Carrera 2.7 RS boasted a larger 2.7 L (2,687 cc) boxer-6 engine, delivering 210 PS (154 kW; 207 hp) at 6,300 rpm and 255 N⋅m (188 lb⋅ft) of torque at 5,100 rpm with Bosch Mechanical fuel injection. Additionally, it featured revised and stiffened suspension, a distinctive "ducktail" rear spoiler, larger brakes, wider wheels and fender flares, enhancing both performance and aesthetics.
