Following the Carrera of the mid-1970s, relentless development of the 911 by Porsches engineering wizards yielded the 911 SC (S=Super, C=Carrera) for 1978. Powered by an enlarged, 3.0 liter flat-six producing 180 factory-rated HP and fortified with stronger internals developed for the 930 Turbo, the 911 SC delivered outstanding performance and drivability with lower emissions than before, ensuring the 911s viability in Porsches important North American export markets. Roadholding was improved with the prior Carreras fatter anti-roll bars and flared Carrera-style rear fenders housing wider 15-inch wheels mounting standard speed-rated tires and 16-inch wheels and tires were optional for the first time. Newly standard power brakes, plus fog lamps and bold black 911SC scripts were other special features of the 911 SC.
 
With just 47,000 miles and benefiting handsomely from two-family ownership and care from new, this truly outstanding, collector-grade 1982 Porsche 911 SC Coupe was built during July 1982 and it is one of only 2,457 911 SC Coupes shipped to the USA for 1982. In addition to standard power disc brakes front and rear, plus power steering, windows, and mirrors, this 911 SC features the all-weather comfort of A/C plus a sunroof, rear defroster, headlight washers, and an upgraded Sony AM/FM CD stereo head unit. The second owner purchased the Porsche from the original family in 1995 at 15,850 miles, with mileage progressively tracked by a logbook until 2001, when the car was passed within the same family. Throughout its lifetime, this 911 SC has never been winter-driven, a rarity for any Midwestern car. As offered, it remains in exceptionally original, well-maintained order, with newer paintwork to the left side and right front fender. Most recently, the Porsche received $3,340 in service work from the Porsche specialists including a general mechanical inspection, new oil seals, and fluid services for the engine, brakes, and transmission. A thorough review, detailing, and beautiful paint correction were just completed by us at The Last Detail. Along with the aforementioned logbook and service invoices, this wonderfully presented 1982 Porsche 911 SC includes a space-saver spare wheel/tire, original toolkit, and roadside jack.
 
In recent years, the Porsche 911 SC has caught the attention of collectors and die-hard Porsche driving enthusiast for their many special features and of course, the performance delivered by its 3.0-liter flat-six engine. More than a worthy successor to the prior Carrera, the SC has seen substantial increases in interest and selling prices, making this very fine and highly original, low-mile example from 1982 an outstanding opportunity to own and enjoy one of Porsches best iterations of the beloved 911.
