Here is an absolutely drop dead gorgeous, 1982 Porsche 911SC that is in very nice condition inside and out. This is a totally solid low mileage car that is a blast to drive. It is a very clean, unmolested car that has been very well kept over the years. This Targa is number 243 of only 2,426 vehicles imported for the US market in 1982. This car has lived in Arizona since 1994 and was bought new in December of 1981 at Lee Klinger Porsche Audi in Highland Park, IL. This Targa had an original MSRP of $39,500 all the back in 1982! This is a 4 owner car that is fully documented and has a FULL service history since brand new and mileage verified through service receipts. This little 911 still retains its original 2993cc drive train which is definitely something you do not see every day. There is nothing cooler then a driving vintage Porsche! The exterior of the car is finished in the flashy color of Guards Red. Overall the paint looks good with a few chips and still retains a beautiful luster. The car has received one high quality repaint at some time in the past and looks excellent. It was a high quality job with no overspray or tape tines. Very hard for the novice eye to notice. The body is 100% rust free and is as straight as an arrow, as any Southwest car should be. All door gaps appear to be factory original and correct. Overall the underside is completely solid and rust free as any west coast car should be. All the weather stripping on the car is soft and supple. The factory Targa top seals up nicely and the vinyl was just redone recently, and is in excellent condition with no rips or ware. The window seals are all replaced and the Targa bar was removed, re-powder coated and re-installed. The car was just fully buffed and hand waxed and has a deep glossy shine. The car is riding on fully reconditioned 16" staggered Fuchs wheels. The barrels were all professionally polished and the centers re-painted. The tires are brand new 16" BF Goodrich g-Force Sport performance directional radials in the correct OE sizes. The very nice factory Black Leather interior is all original and looks excellent. The seats, door panels, carpet, and headliner all look perfect and really set the car off. All the gauges and lights work as they should. The original radio and speakers were replaced with a high dollar ($1000+) Rockford Fosgate sound system that sounds great. All the courtesy lights as well as all the running lights work as they should. Also the lights, horn, turn signals, defroster, and even the lighter work. All the glass and rubbers look excellent. The wind shield was also just replaced due to a rock chip and is BRAND NEW! Mechanically, this 911 is in excellent condition! Anyone who knows Porsche knows that these early 80's Porsches are regarded as the best years to own. The engine compartment is clean as a whistle and shows how well this car was kept. The motor is also very tight and doesn't leak. The car just had a service here at Stuttgart Southwest in Tempe, AZ, and was given a clean bill of health and the motor has excellent compression and leakdown. Both the Engine and Trans are factory numbers matching. The suspension is tight and true and handles as a Porsche should. The car easily cruises at Autobahn speeds well over 100mph. The previous owner spent over $5000 doing performance upgrades on the car including high output plug wires, Bilstein Sport shocks, front and rear sway bars, Powerflow exhaust, Powerflow Intake, Stainless Steel brakes lines, short shifter, and all new bushings up front! He also had the torsion suspension lowered 1" down to Euro Spec height. The odometer reads a bit over 55,000 miles, which is AutoCheck and CARFAX certified to be original. All systems work and the car does not over heat and is a true pleasure to drive. The Air Conditioning was just serviced and blows Ice Cold. This little diamond and is ready for the next cruise night or car show. One of the nice things about this 911 that you don't find in most cars is the complete service history. Over 30 pages of receipts and warrantee work will come with the car going all the way back to 1981 and its first 1000 mi service. It also documents the car mileage as well as its original purchase in Illinois and its move to the Southwest in the early 90s. The original owner’s manual will be included. The bonnet is in excellent condition and still retains all of its factory carpeting as well as the space saver spare with the original jack and complete tool pouch. The original Porsche compressor is also included.
