Porsche 911 Carrera 3. 0 has a very special place in the history of the Porsche 911. as it brought together elements from two of Porsche's most legendary cars. It represented the latest incarnation of the Porsche Carrera. 2. 7 RS in late 1972 and this Carrera 2993cc engine which used the same die-cast aluminum crank-case. It was only sold for two years(1976-1977).
