At the core of the 1972 Porsche 911S's allure is the monumental leap in performance engineering that defined its era. This model year heralded the introduction of a robust 2.4-liter engine, amplified by its Bosch mechanical fuel injection, thus breathing new life into the road ahead. A symbiotic partnership with the formidable Type 915 5-speed transmission, translated raw power into a symphony of controlled velocity. With a curb weight of a mere 2,425 pounds, the 911S effortlessly ascends to 143 mph. The legacy of this aristocratic powerhouse remains etched in the annals of automotive history, making it a cherished item in the collection of discerning enthusiasts.

Every mechanical facet of this vintage marvel has been treated to a level of care that mirrors the precision that went into its original assembly. A meticulous attention to detail extends beyond the mechanical realm, as this 911S exterior has been consistently kept in extraordinary condition. This 911S boasts a rare, stunning metallic blue exterior. The iconic 6” x 15” Fuchs alloy wheels lend an air of timeless beauty.

This 911S interior features options including an electric sunroof, black full-leather sports seats, and full-leather interior including driver and passenger door panels, dash fascia, seat backs/cushions, and rear inner quarter trim panels. The odometer reads a mere 79,812 original miles, a testament to a life well-lived and its owners who kept this car in working condition over the decades.

The origins of this particular 911S trace back to when Mr. Krug first acquired it in Minnesota. It journeyed to California and into the hands of longtime car collector and enthusiast David Word, residing in the San Francisco Bay Area. In August of 2021, it transitioned to its current status, ensuring that its legacy would continue to evolve under the care of a new steward.

Complementing this opulent offering are the owner’s manual, toolkit, voluminous stack of service invoices and parts receipts that stretch back to 1974, and the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity that matches both the chassis and engine numbers. In a world where automotive marvels continue to captivate the imagination, this 911S stands as a beacon of unparalleled engineering, representing an era when excellence was the only measure. It beckons the discerning collector, the enthusiast with an appreciation for heritage and performance, to take the wheel and continue the timeless journey that began over five decades ago.
