1978 Porsche 911SC - Original Unrestored Car
This is a great low mileage example of a first year 911SC Coupe. It has always been garaged and has only traveled
36,630 miles. Its totally original and it has had a recent $10,000 dollar engine out service to address chain
tensioners and head studs that were weak in this model. It's original silver paint shows well and the interior is
fantastic. It has the highly sought after
velour inserts with silver striping and the seats are in great shape. It has been professionally detailed and is
ready to use. If you have been looking for an SC coupe this one would be hard to beat.
Hagerty's Description:
History of the 1978-1983 Porsche 911
Porsche engineers don’t make mistakes very often but the U.S. spec 2.7 liter 911s built between 1975 and 1977
were plagued with engine problems when new. In 1978, Porsche put those problems behind them with the introduction
of the brilliant 3.0 liter 911SC. Porsche now finally mated a body that was capable of lasting indefinitely with an
engine that was capable of lasting nearly that long. Well maintained 911SCs are capable of 300,000 miles between
rebuilds. Power was up too from the 2.7 liter 911 although not by an enormous amount and the SC was good for a 0-60
run of about 6.3 seconds. Leather, A/C power mirrors, and forged alloy wheels became all but standard. The last
year of the car saw the addition of the first full convertible Porsche since 1965. It wasn’t quite yet the
perfect 911—that would have to wait until the 3.2 liter Carrera—timing chain tensioners and exploding airboxes
would continue to plague the 3.0 liter cars. By now though, enthusiast owners have updated these trouble spots on
most cars and the 911SC remains an excellent choice for a first Porsche.

Porsche reveals first Macan driving and manufacturing footage
Fri, 13 Dec 2013One of the more anticipated offerings of the upcoming year, Porsche's sporty baby Cayenne, the 2015 Macan, has already earned nods of approval from a number of Autoblog staffers. We named it one of the top five debuts at last month's LA Auto Show, citing its 400-horsepower turbocharged engine and other sporty bits as good reasons to get excited about Stuttgart's latest.
And while our first test may be many months away, we're keeping our ears to the ground for any information on Porsche's compact crossover. We're especially keen on stuff like this - our first look at the new model in motion and undergoing assembly at its Leipzig plant. Both are shorter videos, and while there's little of the glorious engine noise we've already been teased with, the videos do offer a great look at the handsome Macan on the road, as well as glimpse at Porsche's state-of-the-art manufacturing operations.
Scope out the videos below and let us know what you think.

2014 Porsche Panamera 4S Executive
Fri, 09 Aug 2013If the idea of a Porsche sedan (or, long hatchback) is still off-putting to you, then you might want to look away now. For 2014, the polarizing Panamera has received a midcycle refresh bringing slightly different styling, as well as adding two new models to the lineup, the S E-Hybrid and the stretched-wheelbase Executive. Having focused most of my recent trip to Germany on a First Drive of the intriguing plug-in Panamera, I also got to spend some time with the roomier Executive model.
Offered in both 4S and Turbo guise, the Panamera Executive has been stretched by almost six inches for the sole purpose of improving rear passenger space. Although it's hard to imagine anyone would willingly buy a Porsche and opt to sit in the back seat, I'd have to say that if I'm going to be chauffeured around in a car, why not make it a Porsche? For the most part, though, I'm guessing that many Panamera Executive sedans will be owned by people who want to one-up their buddy driving a stretched BMW 7 Series or Mercedes-Benz S-Class.
