Deriving from the bedrock of Porsche 911 heritage, the 1978 Porsche 911 SC marks the introduction of a new version to the model. It is also Porsches’ first attempt at developing a car for the global market and it replaced the Porsche 911S, 2.7 and the Carrera 3.0. The engine was upgraded to an aluminum one, implying strong dependability. The 911 SC outsold the front-engine variants, prompting Porsche President Peter Schutz to proclaim the 911 as the brand's icon model. This is a smartly restored example of the 1978 Porsche 911 SC done by Strosek, a German car tuner with an extensive range of Porsche conversions in Europe. This increasingly desirable car is given more vigor as this Strosek conversion is said to be a rare one. Its currently clocked at 14,251 original miles that reported to be documented and a set of documents are available with the sale.
The 1978 Porsche 911 SC shares similar features with the Carrera 3.0, such as the meaty rear wheel-arches. On our subject 911 SC, the rear fenders are further thickened thanks to the Strosek body kit, which also makes the headlights notably smaller. It is finished in a handsome black paint and fitted with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tires on all four corners. The black rims are crowned with monochrome Porsche emblems, and the red Porsche brake calipers are exposed behind them. This car offers a well-preserved cream interior specious enough for four passengers. The driver is greeted with five large white dials contrasting elegantly with its cream dashboard. The creamy white leather that envelops the seats extends to the door panels as well. Moreover, it features a Blaupunkt radio, A/C, and Porsche floor mats.
Under the rear lid of this 1978 Porsche 911 SC rests a 3.2L flat-6 engine, driving the wheels via a five-speed manual transmission. As opposed to the earlier models, this engine features an aluminum-alloy crankcase. With an ample power output of 180hp, it’s able to accelerate from 0-60 in around seven seconds. With a reputation for being sturdy, this 1978 Porsche 911 SC combines classic Porsche looks and driving qualities that deliver an exceptional driving experience.

An iconic design, convertible top down and a sunset drive - sounds like a dream? Well we have what it takes to make all that a reality. Present today is this lovely 2000 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 Cabriolet, it's a true blast from the past and has a reported 105,165 miles on the clock making it a survivor that's in excellent shape and the perfect way to experience sports car ownership without breaking the bank.
Few sports cars have had such an impact on the world as the Porsche 911. When it was showcased in 1964, the public were highly interested in this distinctive teardrop-shaped automobile. Then, they learned of its powertrain; an air-cooled flat-six mounted in the car’s tail, and of course, driving the rear wheels. This was quite a departure from traditional front-engined layouts. In fact, Porsche 911 development had started way earlier, in 1959, and it was envisioned to take over from the company’s 356 model. However, such was the 911’s impact that it created its own legacy, and one that continues to this day. Over the years, the 911 gained more creature comforts, convertible variants, and fearsome turbocharged engine options. The car’s exterior design saw modernization, but the overall teardrop shape remained. However, the engines remained air cooled until 1998, when tightening emissions regulations and demands for more power dictated that water cooling was the way to go. Thus, a sort of line was drawn; if you want a proper classic 911, go for pre-1998 cars. If you want more modern examples, post-1998 is where you should seek them out. Therefore, this South Carolina-based 1990 Porsche 911 Carrera 2 Cabriolet is definitely a classic. However, it should be enjoyed rather than mothballed, and its current mileage of 80,948 tells you that it’s meant for the open road rather than stowed away in climate-controlled garages.
The Porsche 911 started out in 1964 with an air-cooled engine and a fun-to-drive demeanor. Then, turbo models and special editions came, and Porsche had created a legacy. Over the past many decades, the 911 has grown, evolved and become more sporty and luxurious. Its engine switched to water cooling in 1998, but has always remained in the tail of the car, slung out behind the rear axle. This makes for some entertaining handling characteristics for keen drivers to exploit. Today, we’ve got a 2006 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S from the 997 generation up for sale with just 63,500 miles on the clock. The 997 generation was made between 2004 and 2013, and is considered to be an excellent place to start if you’re searching for your first 911 but don’t want to buy brand-new. This Phoenix-located car also comes with all servicing up to date.
