1982 Porsche 911 SC Sunroof Coupe

• VIN WP0AA0913CS120XXX
• C Program
• Produced from August 1981 to July 1982
• One of 2,457 built

One-Owner for the past 31 years with only 42,130 miles. Finished in the original color combination Platinum with Fawn interior. The paintwork is in excellent condition and was completely repainted with perfect gaps and panel fit. Original interior with new German carpets, VDO instrumentation, and a Blaupunkt AM/FM radio. The factory air condition is blowing ice cold with a new compressor and an electric sunroof that operates without any issues.

On February 25, 1991, this 911SC was purchased by the past owner with only 27,892 miles and a clean carfax. Shortly after acquiring the vehicle, the owner wrote a letter to Porsche Cars North America to seek out the list of options. In response, the original color was noted as Platinum (color code U1U1) with the following options: M126 - French Stickers, M197 - 88 Amp. Alternator, and M650 - Power Sunroof. There are extensive records on hand, and this was one of three (3) Porsches in his collection. It was driven sparingly until the end of his ownership in 2021.

Mechanically powered by its 3.0L flat-six that produces 180 horsepower at 5,500 rpm and 175 foot-pounds torque at 4,200 rpm with a (915) 5-speed manual transmission. Recently received a full service including replacement of all engine and transmission fluids, valve adjustment, replaced fuel hoses, rebuilt distributor, rebuilt CDI box, new belts, 02 sensor, and replaced spark plugs & wires. Complete with Certificate of Authenticity, owner's manual, toolkit, KPZ collapsible spare tire, and over 32 years of service history. An excellent opportunity to acquire a low mileage 911SC finished in a desirable color combination.

History
Porsche engineers don't make mistakes very often, but the U.S.-spec 2.7-liter 911s built between 1975 and 1977 were plagued with engine problems when new. In 1978, Porsche put those problems behind them with the introduction of the brilliant 3.0-liter 911SC. Porsche now finally mated a body that was capable of lasting indefinitely with an engine that was capable of lasting nearly that long. Well-maintained 911SCs are capable of 300,000 + miles between rebuilds.

Power was up from the 2.7 liter 911 as well, although not by an enormous amount and the SC was good for a 0-60 run of about 6.3 seconds. Leather, air conditioning, power mirrors, and forged alloy wheels became all but standard. The last year of the car saw the addition of the first full convertible Porsche since 1965. It wasn't quite yet the perfect 911, though. Timing chain tensioners and exploding airboxes would continue to plague the 3.0-liter cars. By now, though, enthusiast owners have updated these trouble spots on most cars and the 911SC remains an excellent, surprisingly affordable choice for a first Porsche.
