For 1972, Porsche introduced a significantly revised Porsche 911, commonly known as the E-series. Key updates included an enlarged 2.4-liter flat-six and the new type 915 five-speed transaxle with a conventional H-pattern. To improve weight distribution, the oil tank was relocated ahead of the rear wheel on all models, resulting in the distinctive one-year-only external oil filler, or Ölklappe. The range-topping 911 S added a front chin spoiler and, with Bosch mechanical fuel injection, produced 190 hp.

According to its Porsche Technical Certificate, this 2.4 S was completed in September 1971, finished in Silver Metallic over a Black leatherette interior with US equipment, tinted glass, trim strips, a Blaupunkt Frankfurt radio, and air-conditioning listed as optional equipment. One of 1,750 S Coupes built for 1972, this 911 S, retaining its matching-numbers engine, was reportedly sourced by noted restorer Bob Diers of Omaha, Nebraska via respected collector and vintage racer Jerry Peters. It was subsequently disassembled and refinished with a bare-metal repaint in its original hue, while mechanical, braking, suspension, and interior components were restored or renewed as needed. Additionally, desirable Recaro sport seats were sourced and fitted.

Offered today with its books, partial tool kit, and spare, restored by a marque expert and showing minimal use since completion, this carefully prepared 911 S represents a compelling opportunity for the discerning collector.
