How about this "PORSCHE CARRERA RS late73/74 MFI 2.7"?

You have to love Craigslist! It may be the only RS/targa in existence! For a mere 100 grand it's a steal . . .

PORSCHE CARRERA RS late73/74 MFI 2.7

Well, it is probably is a ROW '74 Carrera Targa, so it's worth way more than half of that.

Even some savvy dealers call '74 Carreras "RS"s, even though they are not, in spite of the similar spec to the prior years RS.

Maybe the guy thinks the value of his car is proportionate to the value of his property ... lol

You can buy three good "daily drivers" for that price !

For example:

Autosport Vehicle Inventory

It is not an "RS". It's a "Carrera". And they are a reputable dealership with Porsche knowledge.

However, the craigslist car is a ROW (presumably, if it's authentic), and this is a US Carrera. The ROW car is worth A LOT more.

is the Carrera stripe a bit high? I thought they were further down on the body.

I would agree. It's definitely high.

believe this could be original as my old mechanic at Redline said the pan was so virgin and all the original fittings are present
Redline. Maybe Pete Z can provide some insight.

a euro car is worth much more than a US car. $100,000. is a bit high.

Stripes are VERY high. Should be 50mm or so above the door seam.
