1985 Porsche 911 Cabriolet
Specifications
Description
The Porsche 911 is a triumph of persistence over perfection.
By rights it shouldn’t have worked at all with its air-cooled engine slung out behind the rear axle the way it was, but determined development by Porsche over many years turned the ugly duckling into a graceful swan.
The 911 has gone from strength to strength and Porsche has succeeded beyond even the wildest dreams of the management in charge in 1984 when the 911 3.2 was released.
Even today’s 911, a vastly different car to the original 911, has a family resemblance that is unmistakable. Every 911 has retained the 911 ‘look’ even when it’s been heavily altered.
ABOUT THIS CAR
- Owner import from UK in 1987
- Power comes from a 3.2-litre version of the flat six-cylinder engine that was so familiar in the back of previous 911s. It has electronic multi-point fuel injection and electronic engine management. Coupled to a five-speed manual, it is capable of racing from zero to 100 km/h in 6.1 seconds and has a top speed of circa 245 km/h.
- Porsches are generally bulletproof, not a lot goes wrong with them even when they get up in the k's, as many of them now are. Porsche introduced hydraulic cam timing chain tensioners on these 3.2's and these cars are much more reliable than the models before them.
- Very nice tidy, original interior
- Straight, clean body - beautiful paintwork - stunning car.
- Goes nice too - mechanically sound - healthy motor - inspections welcome.
- Soft top in good condition in keeping with the rest of the car.
- Some service history available with car.
- Lots of fun to drive, Plenty of power and very predictable when applied - Super Grippy And A Classic Air-cooled Noise
- This car has super high build quality. It lives up to the 911 standard, and even exceeds it.
It’s 35 years old, but the 911 3.2 is an affordable classic that still looks as fresh as tomorrow...and their prices just keep getting stronger and stronger. In fact, they seem to be increasing in value on a weekly basis.

NOTIFICATION AS TO NATURE OF GOODS IN TERMS OF THE CONSUMER GUARANTEES ACT 1993
Waimak Classic Cars Ltd is a New Zealand registered company and accepts that the vehicle being sold must be of “acceptable quality” in terms of section 7 of the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 (the Act) having regard to “the nature of the goods”.
Waimak Classic Cars is not aware of any specific defects with the vehicle, however (a) such a vehicle being a classic vehicle may have mechanical breakdowns, electrical failures at inconvenient times and maintenance costs being part of and parcel of ownership of a classic vehicle; (b) reliability is a combination of the particular nature of the classic vehicle, how it is being driven, how it has been maintained, and to a certain extent luck; (c) because of the age of the vehicle, and its propensity to rust, it is likely that the vehicle would have been fully or partially restored, or at least repainted at some point in its life, maybe even more than once. Waimak Classic Cars does not know, and cannot give advice on how good any restoration work on the vehicle had been.
The Purchaser acknowledges that the vehicle is being sold as a classic car; that in terms of the Act and the nature of the goods, the vehicle is an old car, bike or boat, that may have visual and hidden faults, unlike a new motor vehicle.
The Purchaser is encouraged to personally fully inspect the vehicle and also to have the vehicle inspected, and fully assessed by an experienced, independent, specialist garage - before committing to purchase. While the Purchaser is entitled to rely on statements given by Waimak Classic Cars as being correct, where goods such as vehicles are concerned, with so many moving parts and rust being an issue with older vehicles; a Purchaser who chooses not to seek independent professional assistance when assessing the quality of what they propose to buy is considered as buying at their own risk, and if the vehicle then turns out to be of less than the represented quality, or not up to the Purchaser's expectation, or in the Purchaser opinion not fit for purpose; then the Purchaser is considered to have contributed to their own loss and should not expect any refunds or betterment from Waimak Classic Cars.
The Purchaser acknowledges that they have read and fully understand this notification and the nature of a car which is many years old.
