1973 Porsche 911 2.4 S 5-Speed – Matching Numbers, 3 Owners, 63k Miles

This 1973 Porsche 911 2.4 S is a stunning example of one of the most iconic and desirable early 911 variants, combining classic design, mechanical precision, and enthusiast pedigree. Finished in a timeless color over an elegant interior, this three-owner car shows just 63,579 miles and remains a numbers-matching specimen of Stuttgart engineering.

Powered by a 2.4-liter flat-six paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, this S-spec model delivers approximately 190 horsepower—placing it at the top of the 911 lineup in its final year before the impact bumper era. Renowned for its crisp throttle response, mechanical fuel injection (MFI), and lightweight driving feel, this car remains one of the most coveted air-cooled 911s.

Drivetrain & Mechanical – Numbers-Matching, MFI Power
