1983 PORSCHE 911 SC

An Air-Cooled Heart

Beneath the rear decklid resides a raucous 3.0-litre flat-six cylinder SC engine with a sports exhaust, paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox. The marriage of this naturally aspirated powerplant and the crisp manual transmission delivers a driving experience that’s visceral, direct, and thoroughly rewarding.

It’s a car that thrives on being driven with intent, where each gear change and every throttle input is met with a surge of unmistakable boxer-engine character.

Classic Sports Interior

The cabin offers more than just good aesthetics—the dash gauges are perfectly positioned with clear and concise purpose, preserving the quintessential 1980’s 911 experience.

Every glance at the dials evokes a sense of purpose, connecting the driver to the heritage of Porsche racing engineering.

The interior is presented in good condition with the Drivers seat showing some loose stitching on the lower cloth section, that that can be easily rectified.

This Cabriolet is a four seater suitable for two adults and possibly two small children if you remove their legs.

Suspension and Stance

Adding to its allure is the sports suspension setup and a serious stance, giving the car the poise and balance you expect from a tuned 911.

The wide-set Fuchs style wheels complete the look, adding to the muscular attitude while maintaining that perfect vintage Porsche aesthetic.

Condition and Care

This 911 is a drivers car that shows various marks and blemishes that speaks to its history as a well-enjoyed classic. These imperfections add character, making it a great car that can be driven as it should, without the worry of stone chip damage.

The cars service history extends back to 2007 with this Vendor who last serviced it in 2023. It has been in storage since then.

Conclusion:

This particular modified 911 started life as a normal Targa SC and has been converted into this stunning looking Widebody Cabriolet before being imported into Australia. It is not for the purist. It’s just a cool car.

Few cars blend open-top driving, unmistakable design, and classic performance quite like a Porsche 911 Cabriolet.

Whether carving through twisty coastal roads or cruising on sunny weekends, it promises an experience defined by connection—to the road, to the machine and to a rich air-cooled Porsche legacy.

This is open-top motoring with pedigree, precision, and an undying spirit of old school cool. Best of all… you can drive it how it should be.
