I bought this 911SC just a few months ago after searching for about four months. But now found something else that caught my eye and I have way too many cars.


The target came from California. The previous owner had it for quite a few years. 2007 he had the entire engine rebuilt. Not a cheap rebuilt either , have receipts in a tune of $8000. The rebuilt included also the fuel distributor and ignition distributor rebuilt. New fuel injectors and new fuel pressure regulator.

Also, the clutch was replace some of the vacuum and fuel lines. The brakes were also replaced, new turbo tie rods, new ball joints, new real axle and rebuilt calipers.

Is only been about 4200 miles on it since the rebuilt.

The target top was totally refurbished. Also all new four sides target top seals.

The heat works great!

The front sports seats were reupholstered. There is a small cut on the bottom part of the driver sport seat.

The color is sienna copper metallic (436-9-3) and is extremely rare. The original buyer Special ordered it. 

The engine runs really strong, the clutch engages like it should, and it's peppy and responsive. You can tell the suspension has been redone, it drives extremely straight and is very responsive.

New Targa Floor mats


The areas that need attention are: there are rock chips in the front, a 2 larger rock chips on the passenger side rear wheel area there's a slight wave in the paint around that rock chip. Small spot on targa bar. 

The dash is cracked, that's why there's a dash cap over it. The sun visors are ballooned. The gas gage is finicky. The Tach is finicky. The rear tires should be replaced, but the front are great.


Might down swap for a 928, 968 or 911

Still waiting on my ND title to arrive by mail. ND DOT is 3-4 mounts behind in sending out tile's because of the oil boom. I expect it to arrive in the next week or so.

J.D. Power: Vehicle dependability at all-time high, Lexus and Porsche lead

Wed, 13 Feb 2013


Each year, J.D. Power and Associates surveys original owners of three-year-old vehicles to find out what kinds of problems they have had experienced over the last 12 months, and then it uses this data to create its annual Vehicle Dependability Study. This means that the models in the 2013 study are 2010 model year vehicles, and J.D. Power rates each make as well as the top individual models based on how many problems were experienced per 100 vehicles (PP100).
Debunking the idea that carryover models are more dependable than new or updated models, the 2013 study found that the average carryover model experienced 133 PP100, while all-new or redesigned vehicles for the 2010 model year had 116 PP100; vehicles that received minor changes fared the best with just 111 PP100. The overall average for all makes was 126 PP100, which is the lowest figure since the findings were first issued in 1989.

Porsche to decide soon on Bugatti future

Mon, Jun 21 2021

WEISSACH, Germany — Volkswagen will soon decide on the future of its luxury brand Bugatti, Oliver Blume, Volkswagen management board member and CEO of Porsche AG, said on Monday. Last week, Reuters reported that Bugatti was working on a strategic partnership with Rimac, which will likely result in a joint venture between Porsche and Rimac, with Porsche as a minority partner, Volkswagen CEO Herbert Diess said in March. "The future of Bugatti is an issue that will be decided on a group level," Porsche said in a statement, declining to comment further. Porsche boss Oliver Blume earlier this year said intense discussions on Bugatti's future were ongoing and that Rimac could play a role as the brands were a good technological fit, adding that a decision was expected in the first half of 2021.  

Porsche 911 R might be manual-only with a GT3 engine

Thu, Oct 15 2015

Two of Porsche's best cars only come with two pedals and a PDK transmission. That automatic is inarguably one of the very best on the planet, but it's still not the same. The debut of the latest Porsche 911 GT3 was met with much moaning and groaning when it was revealed it would be PDK-only. A rumor from our friends at Car and Driver could signal that three-pedal fans may finally get the Porsche they really want. C/D is claiming that Porsche might resurrect the 911 R badge for a limited-edition Carrera. Such a vehicle would feature not only a nearly 500-horsepower, naturally aspirated flat-six derived from the GT3's engine, but also a do-it-yourself manual transmission. We're betting it'd be the Carrera's well-regarded seven-speed manual, provided it could handle the output. As for how this car will look, that is perhaps the most exciting angle. According to C/D, Porsche insiders called the 911 R "a wolf in sheep's clothing," describing subdued sheetmetal that won't trumpet this car's high-performance nature. Yes, there's could be a sleeper 911. We'll keep our eyes open for anything that corroborates Car and Driver's rumor, but until then, take this news with a grain of salt. If the 911 R does see the light of day, it will likely be in March at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show.
