Overview of 1988 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet G50 For Sale by Owner

The late G-series Carrera 3.2 occupies a sweet spot in the air-cooled 911 lineage, combining classic 911 proportions and mechanical character with the more desirable Getrag G50 5-speed manual transaxle introduced for 1987. That makes 1987–1989 examples especially sought after among enthusiasts, and this 1988 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet adds an uncommon Cassis Red Metallic finish to the equation. Showing approximately 132,340 miles, it also benefits from a Porsche Classic verification and sorting process completed by Gaudin Porsche in Nevada in early 2026, with the engine serial number visually confirmed as matching Porsche’s original records. The car is accompanied by a Porsche Classic Technical Certificate and blends period-correct air-cooled character with tasteful interior refurbishment, including houndstooth seat inserts.

Exterior and Interior

The exterior of this 1988 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet is finished in Cassis Red Metallic, a distinctive period Porsche color that gives the car an especially elegant presence. It rides on 16-inch Fuchs alloy wheels and is paired with a black convertible soft top. According to the Porsche Classic evaluation completed in early 2026, the paintwork was considered to be in excellent condition with minimal inclusions, while the body showed no visible damage. The same inspection also noted that the suspension showed no major damage and required no action at that time. The interior of this 1988 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet is finished in black and has been reupholstered with houndstooth inserts, giving the cabin a tasteful vintage motorsport character. Current ownership also installed a new dashboard and front seats using OEM-quality materials. Equipment includes power-adjustable front seats, air conditioning, cruise control, power windows, and an Alpine audio head unit. The Porsche Classic inspection described the interior as being in good condition relative to the vehicle’s year of manufacture.

Engine

Powering this 1988 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet is the 3.2L naturally aspirated air-cooled H6, paired with the highly regarded G50 5-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive. The G50 gearbox is a major part of the appeal of the final Carrera 3.2 years, offering a more modern shifting feel than the earlier 915 transmission while retaining the unmistakable analog character of an air-cooled 911. During the Porsche Classic evaluation, the engine serial number was visually identified as matching Porsche’s original records, and no visible or obvious engine leakage was noted. The inspection also found the front brake pads and rotors to be effectively new, while the rear pads and rotors showed only minimal wear.
