“Before Porsche went digital, this is what it sounded like.”
This 1982 Porsche 911 SC Targa is exactly the kind of car that gets enthusiasts excited. A true G-Series 911: air-cooled, rear-wheel drive and infused with that unmistakable Porsche character.
Mounted in the rear is the glorious 3.0-litre flat-six boxer engine, delivering its power to the rear wheels with that wonderfully raw, mechanical soundtrack.
Roof off, sun shining and the flat-six right behind you. What more could you possibly need?
The 911 SC, with SC standing for Super Carrera, marked an important chapter in Porsche history. Stronger, more reliable and technically more advanced, yet still offering a pure, mechanical driving experience.
Porsche also took a significant step forward in body protection. The fully galvanised body offered substantially improved resistance to corrosion, contributing to this generation's reputation as one of the most durable 911s ever built.
This is the G-Series 911 for those who would rather drive than polish.
The previous owner clearly understood what this Porsche is all about. Not a car to simply admire, but one to be driven and enjoyed.
In 2020, it was time to give the car some well-deserved attention. The engine and mechanical components underwent a comprehensive overhaul at a Porsche specialist. No quick cosmetic refresh, but a thorough technical restoration involving a serious investment of time, care and expertise.
The objective was clear: to bring this 911 back to a sound mechanical condition, ready for many more miles of driving pleasure.
Imagine a beautiful morning. The Targa roof comes off, the key turns and the air-cooled flat-six comes to life right behind you. A winding road lies ahead, the window is open and that unmistakable six-cylinder soundtrack fills your ears.
Air-cooled. Targa. G-Series. Ready to be driven.
