1984 Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe
 
The dual pontoon fenders at the front of the Porsche 911 have always been a signature design feature of the long-running sports car. But for a few years in the 1980s, the company offered a different front end design, aimed to imitate the incredibly successful Porsche 935 race car that was dominating on tracks around the world at the time. These cars were known as “Flachbau” (meaning flat construction) or in English, slant nose, for their wide sloping front end and pop-up or inset headlights. In period, this was a modification largely reserved for the 930 Turbo, as the cost to do the conversion at the Porsche factory was immense, but it became a popular modification that was done with varying degrees of quality on other 911s in the era. This 1984 Porsche 911 Carrera received a slant nose upgrade in the period and unlike most conversions, was done using all OEM metal from Porsche to ensure a factory-level of quality.
 
Finished in Guards Red, this Carrera shows a remarkable 15,411 miles and was delivered new to what is now Paul Miller Porsche in Parsippany, New Jersey. The original window sticker show the car was ordered with 15-inch Fuchs wheels, front and rear spoilers, a power sun roof and black headliner, making for a pretty nicely equipped example in period. Although little is known about who carried out the conversion, in person the car looks like it could have been done at the factory with a great paint match and the aforementioned OEM steel panels from Porsche. Along with the front end conversion, the car received updated rear fenders with air-intakes and three-slat grilles just in front of the rear tires which also would have been typical equipment on a Porsche-built slant nose. This car sits on a set of deep-dish Fuchs wheels with an “RSR” finish and a second set of wheels with new tires are also included in the sale.
 
The interior is finished in black leather with some red leather interior accents throughout. Both front and rear seats are standard 1984 911, wrapped in black leather and comfortable with enough bolstering to hold you in. The underside of the dash and part of the added center-stack are wrapped in contrasting red leather, and the new center stack features an airplane-style altitude gauge, a Volt-meter and switches/controls for the air conditioning system. Above that in the dash sits an of-the-era Alpine head unit with a cassette player and AM/FM capabilities, and additional HVAC controls are to the left of that. A Momo steering wheel has been added which frames the large central tachometer and speedometer placed just in front of the driver.
 
Sitting out back is a 3.2-liter air cooled flat 6 that produces 207 horsepower and 192 lb-ft of torque. The engines in the 3.2 Carrera are notorious for being some of the most stout and dependable motors ever produced by Porsche and with proper maintenance can see mileage deep into the six-figures before needing anything major addressed on them. This engine is then connected to a 5-speed gearbox which sends power to the rear wheels.
 
In the last few years as the popularity of 1980s cars has begun to soar, enthusiasts have started to really appreciate the slant nose 911s with Porsche-built examples commanding a hefty premium over their non-slant nose counterparts. With that, good conversions have also become sought after with OEM metal conversions like this filling the next highest spot on the desirability list. There are few cars that are greater symbols of 1980s excess than a slant nose 911 and this exceptionally well kept example is a truly great 911, made even more desirable by its unique modifications.
