The number of right-hand-drive Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 MFI coupes to be painted Mexico Blue? Just two. Include models delivered new to the U.K. in your search, however, and that number drops just to one–this one.

Also noted to be among the earliest 400 MFI examples built, this 911 was recently “mechanically recommissioned” following some 25 years of dry storage.

Repainted in its original shade of Paint to Sample Mexico Blue, the Porsche’s interior has been refinished in Midnight Blue leather with Shetland wool seat inserts.

Find this 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 MFI Coupé for auction from Car & Classic.

I bet those seats are pretty comfy–at least to the touch–with those wool inserts.

Great article.  Brought the era back with lots of good memories  Was in a club for Alfas and often we ran across all these cars as we  met and compared our rides.  Enjoyed the pictures, memories and info.  They are still enjoyable see.
