The Carrera 3.0 was a comparatively rare car with only 3687 units produced worldwide between 1975 and 1977. By comparison and illustration some 58,000 3.0 SC’s and 76,500 3.2 Carrera’s were manufactured worldwide.
The Carrera 3.0 offers comparable performance to the famed 2.7RS a shares it’s lighter 6 bolt flywheel and crankshaft. More free revving and ‘peppy’ that the 3.0 SC that replaced it. Consequently, a well sorted and structurally sound Carrera 3.0 makes for something quite special and this car is very much that. Comfortably one of the better examples of its’ type and the most joyous of drives……such a strong engine !
