1987 Porsche 911 Carrera Targa — G50, Whale Tail
Finished in Metallic Silver over white leather, this 1987 Porsche 911 Carrera Targa represents a well-preserved example from the final years of the G-body era—pairing the robust 3.2-liter platform with the highly desirable G50 gearbox.
The car has the hallmark Targa configuration with a recently refurbished black removable roof panel, offering the open-air character unique to these cars while maintaining structural rigidity. The exterior is complemented by the “whale tail” rear spoiler, lending both visual presence and improved high-speed stability.
Underneath, the 3.2 Carrera platform is known for its durability and usability, and this example benefits from the later G50 5-speed manual transmission, prized for its hydraulic clutch and more precise, modern shift feel compared to earlier 915-equipped cars.
The car sits on iconic Fuchs forged alloy wheels, fitted with 205/65R15 front and 225/60R15 rear tires, maintaining proper stagger and factory-correct appearance. Braking is via power-assisted discs with ABS, delivering confident, predictable stopping performance.
Inside, the white leather interior offers a pleasing contrast to the exterior and all gauges and instrumentation functioning as intended. A Blaupunkt Denver AM/FM/CD system provides the proper complement to the engine’s unique exhaust note.
Under the hood is the jack, tools in their original pouch, the original(/) spare tire, and a shop manual.
