The 912E is a rare beast indeed. Internally designated at the factory as the Type 923, it appeared for one model year only, primarily in the United States, as the companion to the 911S. It was in many ways a stop gap between the 914 (1969-1976) and the 924 (1976-1988). In 1976 rising fuel prices and lowered U.S. speed limits helped make the 912E a practical model.
The 912E was powered by the 2.0 liter fuel-injected 914-derived engine.With its 21 U.S. gallon fuel tank and fuel-efficient engine, the 912E's driving range may be the best of any Porsche ever made, 600+ miles. Options included electric sunroof, limited slip, and air conditioning. The 2099th and final 912E constructed also became the last air-cooled four-cylinder car produced by Porsche. For the record... 912E (E = Einspritzung, fuel injected to you and I).
