For the 1978 model year, Porsche replaced the 911 S with the SC, or “Super Carrera.” While visually similar to its predecessor, the SC adopted rear fender flares and wider rear tires to better manage increased output. Power came from an enlarged 3.0-liter aluminum flat-six, developing 180 hp in US specification. The revised engine delivered improved torque, stronger mid-range response, and enhanced durability, establishing the SC as a more robust and refined evolution of the classic 911.
This 1982 Porsche 911 SC Coupe is finished in Silver Metallic over a Black leather interior with sport seats. Additional equipment includes a front chin spoiler and a Carrera-style rear spoiler. While its early history is not extensively documented, the SC was previously owned by Ricky L. Moore of Chattanooga, Tennessee. The car was refinished in an era-correct silver metallic in current ownership. Showing 116,093 miles at the time of cataloguing, this SC is accompanied by tools, spare tire, and a car cover. Maintained within Tommy Trabue’s Porsche-centric collection, the car’s current ownership reflects further enthusiast-focused use and preservation.
With their classic styling, engaging driving dynamics, and proven durability, impact-bumper 911s remain increasingly sought after, and this well-presented SC offers an appealing opportunity for continued enjoyment.
