This is a beautiful and rare 1982 Porsche 911 SC, "sunroof delete" car, in amazing original mechanical and cosmetic
condition. With only 3 (all local) owners, as well as records and documents since new, this car runs, shifts,
drives, stops, and does everything it should, in an excellent manner. Zero rust, and very little wear, to indicate
it's 68K (only 2,000 per year!) of gentle, "seasonal" use.
A few highlights:
* 68,000 original documented miles
* Official Certificate of Authenticity ("C.O.A.") from Porsche
* Rare sunroof delete car (sunroofs were optional, but appeared on the majority of U.S. cars)
* Freshly serviced & runs great
The car was originally 'rosewood metallic', but was near perfectly resprayed (a much more attractive) Guards Red,
in an excellent (glass & seals all out, etc), no-expense spared fashion, and there is no hint of a color change
anywhere on the car. All of the requisite 911 SC updates have been made, including pressure fed "Carrera" chain
tensioners, and air-box pop off valve. While never driven daily, and obviously not accumulating many miles, the car
has never sat for extended periods of time, and has always been regularly exercised. It has also just been freshly
serviced and gone through, is in excellent mechanical shape, and is ready for a long tour, or spirited drive. The
car has excellent oil pressure, and a nice steady and consistent idle. While this car has never been tracked, the
sunroof delete option, saves weight, and adds to the already great handling, making this SC a great auto-cross
candidate, if one desires. The original Fuchs are in excellent condition, and the tires show good tread. It has
been fitted with a more modern cd player and speakers.
While certainly not a perfect concourse car (what fun is that?), this is an excellent example of a wonderful
driver, 911 SC. There is slight patina to the original steering wheel leather, and while the original dash has no
cracks, the leather has shrunk in a few small spots (we're being picky now), but none of this affects drivability
or usability, and wouldn't even be noticeable to the average observer. The seats, floors, etc are all in very nice
condition, with little to no wear, as one would expect, with a vehicle that has had constant care, love and
maintenance.
Considered by many marque enthusiasts, as the quintessential air-cooled 911, the SC is rapidly getting the respect
of the collector market, and is sure to quickly enjoy the appreciation garnered by the early 911 and 356 cars.
Invest in one of the last, original low mileage cars, at a reasonable price, before it's too late!

MotorWeek proves '90s were awesome with Supra, Stealth, RX-7, Corvette, 968, 300ZX comparo
Thu, 24 Jul 2014Oh, the heady days of 1993, back when the Clinton Presidency was just getting underway, and it seemed like every hot new rock band was coming out of Seattle. Sports cars in the US had finally shaken off the shackles that slowed them during the '70s and '80s, and you could buy any number of legitimately quick vehicles again. MotorWeek recently went digging into its archives to find this six-model test from 1993 showing off some of the best semi-affordable performance coupes that money could buy at the time, and it's priceless.
Featuring the 1994 model year Toyota Supra in twin-turbo guise and MY 1993 versions of the Porsche 968, Nissan 300ZX TT, Mazda RX-7, Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo and Chevrolet Corvette LT-1, MotorWeek definitely covered all of the bases. One thing that might surprise younger readers is these cars' performance. The video only provides 0-60 acceleration times, but several of these vehicles would still be considered pretty potent today - over 20 years since going on sale. The Supra is especially impressive, hitting 60 miles per hour in just 5 seconds. Even today, that's nothing to sneeze at.
Given their performance potential and still-attractive looks, it's amazing that some of these coupes are old enough to drink now. The progress of interior design and safety equipment in the intervening years is pretty shocking, though. In most of these models, having two airbags is touted as a big deal. Scroll down to watch a Throwback Thursday blast from the past about some of the '90s best sports cars.
Porsche unlocks secrets of its mid-engine 911
Fri, 23 May 2014Porsche is beginning to realize that it's sitting on a goldmine of automotive history with its secret vault full of rare cars. Autoblog toured it a few months ago, and we were amazed at all of the curiosities hidden inside. Now, it's starting to let more folks in thanks to a new series of YouTube videos. The first covered the 965 prototype that shoved a water-cooled, Audi V8 into one of its cars. Next up, a mid-engine 911 that acted as the powertrain test mule for the Boxster.
The Porsche 911 is inextricably linked to its rear-engine layout. They go together like peanut butter and jelly. However, at the time Porsche was developing the Boxster, the company didn't want to lay all of its cards out of the table during testing. As opposed to using camouflage, it put a whole different car on top. The prototype looked just like any other 911 Targa of the day, but the biggest giveaway that something was amiss was the heavily tinted rear window. By obscuring it, inquisitive journalists couldn't peak at the new engine that replaced the backseat.
It might not look like anything too important on the outside, but this is a major piece of Porsche Boxster history underneath. Scroll down to watch the video about this fascinating prototype.
2015 Porsche Cayenne S
Tue, 23 Sep 2014Oh, Porsche.
Just as the dust settles over the 911 GT3's no manual gearbox kerfuffle, the Germans have gone and yanked the yummy naturally aspirated 4.8-liter V8 from the Cayenne S and replaced it with a twin-turbo 3.6-liter V6. Is nothing sacred in Porscheland?
Perhaps not... but that's not necessarily a bad thing. After all, Porsche famously once said they'd never build a diesel, but when they did, it was actually rather stellar.
