1983 | Porsche 911 SC 3.0

A timeless classic on four wheels – the 1983 Porsche 911 SC 3.0 Targa

With its distinctive targa top, which strikes the perfect balance between cabriolet and coupé, the Porsche 911 model radiates pure freedom. It was a vehicle that blurred the boundaries between sporting performance and elegance, and to this day it inspires fans all over the world.

Beneath the hood is a 3.0-litre boxer engine that notches up 204 hp when it hits the road – an impressive feat for the time and one that provides a palpable rush even today. The hearty sound of the air-cooled engine promises hair-raising thrills and is sure to charm any Porsche enthusiast. The SC 3.0 Targa can go from 0 to 100 km/h in 6.8 seconds and its maximum speed is 230 km/h, making it a formidable sports car, even compared to modern vehicles.

Yet the Porsche SC is about more than sheer power. With its classic design and soft curves, it positively gleams with a timeless beauty. The iconic Fuchs wheel design, the slim silhouette and the unique targa roof construction set this model apart from others and make it a coveted collector’s item. The combination of hand-crafted precision and technical ingenuity reflects Porsche’s aspiration of producing vehicles that are not only powerful, but durable too.

In typical Porsche fashion, the SC 3.0 Targa’s interior is simple yet functional. Clear lines, high-quality materials and the perfect driver’s seat position make driving a purely enjoyable experience. Precision gear shifting and instant steering give the driver a genuine connection to the road, which is something only few cars provide.

This highly “honest” Porsche is in its original condition, has been serviced regularly, has matching numbers and holds veteran status. It was originally purchased by its current owner in 1997, who drove it until 2010 before selling it. The owner then repurchased it in 2020, having longed for a reunion. The folder containing all documents and service invoices will be handed over to the new owner and is a testament to how well this modern classic has been cared for. It first received veteran status in 2015 and underwent its last MFK (Swiss MOT) in 2022.
