The Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 was introduced in 1984 to replace the longstanding SC model and in Porsche’s typically evolutionary fashion, it was visually very similar to the outgoing 911. It marked the final evolution of the G-Series line, which was introduced in 1974. Porsche built a staggering 80,000 911 Carrera 3.2s between 1983 and 1989. Not bad for a car that was supposed to have been killed off in favour of the front-engined cars. Almost 20.000 of them were cabrio`s. 4202 pieces were build in 1987 to be precisely.
After years of largely incremental power increases the Carrera 3.2 introduced a rather more generous horsepower hike for the European market: 231bhp reached at 5900rpm from its 3.2-litre flat six
Early Carrera 3.2s retained the Type 915 gearbox, but in October 1986 the 911 got the gearbox that many would say it really deserved: The Getrag G50, that would go on to serve the 911 through the 964 and 993 ranges. The gearbox you need on this type of car.
