It is basically a Garage Queen. I have owned it since 1989 and only put approximately 1200 miles on the car since I purchased it. It was always my intent to drive it occasionally on fair weather days and possibly put it in some shows and even some concours events if I thought it would compete well. It is much slower, and far less sophisticated than the later and brand new models, but it is still a real blast to drive. Those older models had a certain character to them that the new ones just don't have. It does need a few things done to it to bring it up to flawless museum standards though. It is equipped as follows: leather interior, power windows, power dual & heated outside mirrors, cruise control, power sunroof, factory alarm, factory AM/FM stereo/cassette/clock radio, power antenna, air conditioning, headlight washers, factory 16" Fuchs wheels, rear window defroster, 5 spd., 3.0 engine. Actually for the right price, I might consider selling it. Don't really know if it fits my life right now. I still get excited about it though when I spend a little time with it.

When I first got the SC it was used for daily driving and sometimes a autocross on the weekend. I retired 6 years ago and have done some work to restore everything from the ground up and at this point I'm down to doing the paint and interior which should get done soon. I like the SC because it's fun to drive and here is lots of parts to keep it going. I have done a lot of driver training events with all the new Porsches and still think the SC is one of the best all around cars you can drive.

My first Porsche... It was my primary driver for about 4 years, at which time I sold it to good friend and bought a boxster... I recently bought it back from my friend and it's pretty much exactly the same as I left it.... Aftermarket sports seats, 5 point harness, Momo steering wheel, turbo tie rods, Seine shifter gate, lowered to euro specs and then some, and the A/C was removed – it is meant to become a track car as soon as a front oil cooler can be fitted. The existing (upgraded) Carrera cooler + fan is not up to the task in Florida ! That car is the Mercedes 300D of the Porsche world, it has nearly 170K miles and only a 2% leakdown on all cylinders, it will just keep on going forever!

Purchased the car from the second owner and used it as a daily driver and autocross car until late in '96 when I tried a track day for fun.  Big mistake.  The car slowly morphed into what it is today.  A fully prepped G class PCA Club Race car.  I have not driven it on the street since 2002.  It is a top race car with many podium finishes.  I might add that the engine is stock and as near to being indestructible as any engine from any other manufacturer.  Great car!

I am the third owner of this car originally delivered in March of 1979 to Dave Strong Porsche in Salt Lake City. The car is stock except for tensioner and pop-off valve upgrades. The engine and transmission are original (clutch was replaced many years ago). The car was cosmetically restored in 2004/05 both exterior and interior. The car was repainted in the original Light Blue Metallic. I have a certificate of authenticity but it is not entirely accurate: the Fuchs are 16" and the window trim is black; those were both options on the '79 but are not listed on the certificate. I use the car as a daily driver during the summer months and store it in the winter. North Central Idaho has many fun back roads and the SC is the perfect car for run on the twisties - especially the 155 turn 8-mile grade into Lewiston, Idaho. The SC embodies the best of Porsche - beautiful design, raw driving enjoyment, and reliability.

The car was purchased new in Long Beach, CA from Circle Porsche. It is in extraordinary condition throughout both mechanically and cosmetically. I had seen it around town and admired it greatly, then amazingly I saw it at a performance car dealership (where it had been traded in for a later model 911) for sale and I purchased it (after a full mechanical checkout by a good mechanic). It had no records with it. I have put about 1000 miles on it since purchase and generally drive it once or twice a week around town or a short trip to9 Jerome (old mining town) or Sedona, AZ for lunch with my wife and another couple who own a 1990 Porsche 944.

On a cold November morning ...

This is my 5th Porsche since being exposed to a 356 cab back in the late 60's (having grown up on British sports cars). It is by far the most fun and the most appreciated of the sports cars I have owned. Since I've owned it I have had the engine and transmission rebuilt, installed a WEVO shifter, had the suspension set up with BIG sway bars, torsion bars and adjustable Koni's, installed one of Rod Birch's incredible amp and subwoofer systems, and last winter I replaced the passenger side rocker panels with new (myself). This past spring and early summer I upgraded the oil cooling system to a big Mocal unit and replaced all the air conditioning components with Griffiths' "Mr. Ice" components so the A/C now blows about 40 degree air using 134A. The car has 964 type 17inch rims and a Monty muffler. Although it looks very nice from about 5 feet, I would like to get a concours-quality paint job in the future. Between work and family and stuff I don't get to drive it or attend as many PCA meetings as I would like, but I'm hoping to get some dialogue happening amongst SC Register folks that will help make up for this!

Car looks great! Complete paint job a number of years ago (all came off, including glass out). Only non-stock item is the black seats. Original were gross, plus very bad for my bad back. Replaced with a set of seats from an 86, which I then redyed. Use the car for drives in the country with my lady, and go to Metro concours (twice a year) where I usually bring home a second or third --street class as the engine is clean but not up to snuff for a judging. She sleeps in a small but neat garage that's got outdoor carpeting from Home Depot. Have an '87 944 dark green with light beige leather as a daily driver. A few scratches but basically clean, 86,000+ miles. Business car is a VW GTI, but it may go soon to make way for another Porsche (either an old 911 or 944).

I am the third owner of this SC Targa, Ruby Red (original), stick shift, and I have been enjoying it for 2 years mainly going to Starbucks on Sunday mornings but some PCA events as well. The original owner did it right with black, all leather interior, power windows (but not power steering), power radio antenna, fog lights, headlight washers, etc. The second owner installed an Alpine stereo system with a CD player. It runs great. Had to replace the ignition box after experiencing engine cut-out without warning. Also did brake calipers and discs as the calipers were hanging up and milling the discs. I belong to the Diablo PCA club which is very active with both car and social events. Great group of people.

Car has been modified for DE and Autocross, plus has typical durability upgrades: Carrera Chain Tensioner, Carrera Oil Cooler & Pop-off valve. Performance: 22/29 torsion bars, Bilstein SPORT shocks, Elephant Polybronze bushings and monoballs, Turbo Tierods, Weltmeister Strut Brace, lowered and corner balanced, DAS-SPORT removable rollbar. Removed air conditioning for 57lb weight reduction, however I've kept all parts so it can be reinstalled. Engine and transmission are from the factory. Used for occasional drives to work, evening cruises, long trips to visit friends and of course DE and AX. Last year I dynoed the car at XXTuning in East Hartford. Car made 155 rwhp, which works out to ~180 hp, assuming a 14% driveline loss. Engine is still making stock hp, which is impressive considering the miles and the "no-mercy" driving on the track. I do most of the work on it myself. Musante Motorsports does the hard stuff. Bought it two years ago and have put ~10K on it since then. PO put 50K on in 5 years using it as a daily driver and ~20 track days.

I am the 3rd owner. The color combo is Brick Red Metallic (although Porsche called it Ziegelrotmetallic) with a brown leather interior. It is an unusual and strikingly good looking color combination -- one of Porsche's better eclectic combos. It was completely original when I bought it except for an upgraded radio with CD and a Momo wheel (The original is now mounted). I have since taken care of many little things (like fixing the cruise control) plus a complete, correctly done, repaint due to the road rash. I wanted more out of the stock engine so it now has a complete rebuild with JE high compression pistons and rings, cam work for more torque, valve job, cylinders honed, lightened flywheel, SSI exhaust and free flow muffler. It now puts out 220HP+; the pistons alone take it to 204HP. It has Carrera tensioners and a pop-off valve, new clutch and pressure plate and a crisp, grind free 915 transmission (even first). The brakes have new rotors (cross drilled) and pads. This SC can scare the H out of Carreras and 964s. I re-dyed the front seats, otherwise the interior is all original, no cracks or splits in the dash or seats. This SC will now be my “almost daily” driver. I have two other Porsches, a full concours '65 356C coupe, Irish Green/tan and a '69 911E coupe, Polo Red/black with a rebuilt 2.2E MFI engine.

I am the fourth owner of this car. Originally purchased at Crown Porsche in Greensboro NC, it now resides in Denver Colorado. This car has won 3, First in Class awards at local PCA judged Concour events and a Second and Third place at the Gmund West event. An illustration of this car can also be found on the cover of the Porsche Market Letter / July 2004.  I have always been inspired by the RS look so one of the first modifications I performed was the    P O R S C H E    stripe along the bottom of the door and to paint the Fuchs red to match the stripe. There is a 6-disc Alpine changer and a 200 watt Kenwood amplifier installed by the previous owner, but the only sound I listen to is the flat-six. The car has been lowered and corner balanced. The windows have been tinted.  Beyond that, she is a factory at the day she rolled off the assembly line. I have started driving the car more now that I have retired from the show circuit. I sold a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette to acquire this car. I have become a real Porsche guy and now, I am in the hunt for a 912.  Hope you have enjoyed my story.

This 911SC sunroof coupe is my fourth Porsche. I consider the SC's to be the best of the 911 series. Exterior changes since purchase are installation of a chin spoiler, replacement of the aftermarket fogs with the correct ones and replacement of the bumper smile. Inside got a Momo wheel and CD player. The engine had the popoff and tensioner upgrades, I added a MSD6AL ignition. Found a couple of broken head studs when the covers were pulled for a valve adjustment so I pulled the engine over the winter, did the studs and resealed everything short of splitting the case. Car is driven mostly on the weekends and is my favorite Porsche for highway trips.

This is a bare bones go cart compared to my previous 944S. It has no power windows, no A/C no cruise control. I bought it as a project car and it has been a blast to preserve ( I do not say restore as it would be misleading ) . It does have an LSD which makes it a blast to drive. It is a summer car only, is in really nice shape and I hope to hang on to her for a while.

I am the third owner.  I believe the miles to be original based on the condition of the interior, which always draws a crowd.  Originally purchased in Las Vegas and spent most of its life there.  After purchase, I brought it up to concours condition taking first in class in 2005 and second in class in 2006 PCA San Diego region events.  It's not a daily driver, but I drive it around 5,000 miles/year.

My Porsche is a Weissach Limited Edition 911SC.  I am the Northern Representative for the Redwood Region PCA.  The Pacific Northwest has its limits on dry days to drive, however when it is clear it is one of the few places that you can cruise the curvy roads around 500+ year old Redwood Trees.   I was fortunate to have the editor of Adrian Streathers' book, "Porsche 911SC The Essential Companion", select photos I took of my car for the cover of his book.  My Weissach buddies in the Redwood Region are also featured in several articles.     Jim Giampaolo

This is my seventh 911 and my first Red one!  I bought my first 911 30 years ago when I was 23. I have owned a 356 Pre A and a couple of 914's and there is nothing that compares to the 911.  I was an owner/officer of  a Porsche Audi Saab dealership with my former husband in the 1980's.  This car is the smoothest driving 911 I have ever owned.  Driven on weekends and in good weather, it lives in my garage where I can admire it.  I plan to repaint it as soon as my daughter graduates from Roanoke College!  I purchased this car from a fellow BRR PCA member who wanted a track car.  I believe he wishes he had this red car back!  It will cost him!  I love it.

Bought to replace a '77.  Found in Park City, Utah.  Modded with sport Bilsteins, AC delete, sport muffler, all the usual mods (tensioners, pop-off), camber bar, 28 MM torsion in rear, 7 and 9 x 16's, lowered, corner-balanced, turbo tie rods, turbo valve covers.

I drive it at PCA and other club's events, including autocross, DE, and the odd rally (really like them but this regions doesn't due very many a year, guess I should get off my bottom and organize one).  Also take the patient "Porsche Widow" out for the occasional drive to Taos to get some ice cream at the Taos Cow (I highly recommend it).  The little guy loves it too  "Yea, we get to take the Fun Car!"

Great car! I am a professional artist (Landscapes and Still Lifes in oil on canvas) so I don't have to drive to a job or travel much. My studio is in my basement so this is my daily driver. This is my second Porsche, had a 1977 euro 930 Turbo that was incredible. Sold it twelve years ago to pursue my art career full time. So now I'm making a living as an artist and I have another Porsche! Life is good.

The car is a stock 911 SC Targa (Euro model) with the exception of an 89 Carrera 3.2L engine. The interior is a black cloth and has Recaro front seats. I've eliminated the AC, when cruising it's nicer to just have the top off. I purchased the 911 from a retired Air Force Col. who purchased the car while in Germany from the original owner.

It begins with a once-in-a-lifetime trip in January of 2006, a dream trip, buying this car in Monterey, CA, and driving it first to Vancouver, B.C., and then, three months later, winter over, across the Canadian prairies home to Toronto.

I’d owned a 356 (T-6) from 1968 to 1998 and a 914 for a year or two. As an auto journalist I have driven many 911 incarnations both for road tests and at media introductions. To my delight, the 911SC felt absolutely great from the time I set out driving north from  Monterey.

The only real disappointment with this $8,865 purchase was the paint - dead-looking to begin with and peeling by the time I got home. As a result the car spent the summer of 2007 in a body shop, with my 22-year-old son and I stripping the paint and removing the front fenders, bumpers, interior and so on, finding in the process that this was indeed the rust-free California car all we easterners covet.

It remains Cashmere beige as original, but the car glows as never before with its highly polished Herbert’s Standox paint. Various mechanical upgrades also have brought this car, oldest I believe of all SC’s currently in the registry, up to a high standard. The satisfaction gained is incredible.

Since childhood I have always wanted one of these; a classic 911 Coupe. Although I had always envisioned a Guards Red on Black example, my interests matured to include more unique alternatives. While living and working as an automotive engineering/design intern for Brammo Motorsports in Ashland, Oregon for a summer, I stumbled across this stunning SC with a 'For Sale' sign in the window while on my bicycle commute to work. I returned to the location on a daily basis to stare at the car. The Features... Lowered and adjustable ride height, chrome Fuchs 8s and 9s, power windows and sunroof, aftermarket airbox with K&N filter, 105K miles, hotwires ignition, momo steering wheel, new Toyo Proxes tires, Cambermeister strut brace, Bilstein performance shocks, 170 MPH speedo, new Hella driving lights, Carrera chin spoiler, Euro lenses, an awesome color, and no price tag, just a 'Make Offer' at the bottom... I wanted it. So I took down the number and called the guy, even though I had no money, and asked if he'd like to trade for my '99 Audi A4 with about 65,000 miles. He said that was the kind of car he was looking to replace his 911 with, and so we met up and he really liked my car as well, (I had made a few tasteful upgrades myself since I bought it). We made the trade and the rest is history.
       I used the car as a daily driver for a year, and have kept very good care of it. I have recently purchased another car, so now I just drive this around town on sunny weekends. The car currently has 118,000 documented miles on it, and recently had an engine-out full service, fixing all leaks, checking the clutch (which was relatively new), etc. etc.. Next up will be the installation of some rebuilt front calipers, as mine have seized up and are not working. I will also get the seats stitched up or re-covered soon, and may take out a very small dent. I am having a great time with this car, and am proud to be an SC owner

I was looking on EBAY one day in December when I stumbled on this 911SC in Chicago. I had never owned a 911 but since that day in 1973 when a friend of mine's father pulled into his driveway with a brand new 911, it was all over! Now, 33 years later, it's my turn. I called the auto broker, arranged for payment, and flew out to pick up the car! It was kind of on the wild side but all stock and it was mine!! Off I went driving from Chicago to Bellingham, Washington in December in a 911 with 127000 miles on it. WOW.
For four days I did not stop smiling, the car ran like a top just hummed right along. When l got home I was ready to go on another trip! What a great car and I am looking forward to restoring it to like new condition.

Purchased her about 2 years ago, I have wanted a 911 since I was in high school. My neighbor restored a 73T and I've loved them ever since.    Great car daily driver has the usual upgrades, I did the turbo tie rods last year have Fabspeed catbypass into a muffler bypass for the track just rebuilt the front calipers and had her corner balanced a few months ago also put in some Recaros.   I do a DE event about every other month for the  past 8 months, the car loves the track. I have never  had an issue she actually runs better after a day on  the track.   I love this car!!!
