1981 Porsche 911 SC originally imported from Germany. The car is registered in New York and has a clean title. The car is a wonderful driver. My mechanic recently said “I would not hesitate to drive this to California and back.”
The engine is the high compression European motor originally making 204 horsepower in stock trim. Additionally, the CIS has been removed and replaced with dual Weber carbs
which provide instant throttle response and a wonderful growling noise. The fueling system has been properly modified for the carbs. Combined with the Bursch muffler and SSI heat exchangers the car sounds amazing - and coupled with the additional power and low weight of around 2500 lbs, the car really rips.
The suspension is mostly stock components with Koni shock upgrades. I have a set of 16 x 7 et 23 /16 x 8 et 10 MSWs as well as the original 16 x 6 et 36 / 16 x 7 et 23.3 Fuchs. I also have a set of spacers and Boxster twists that I might be convinced to include with the car - they truly set it off and create a flush look with an aggressive stance. The car tracks straight and true with very communicative steering, and no power assist. Road feel is incredible. Car is set at European ride height.
The body has an extremely rare European Ruf front bumper with integrated fog lights and an integrated front lip. The rear has a whale tale. The paint is ok. There are some chips in the front and on one of the doors, as expected on a 30 year old car with original paint… The rear has a rough spot under the whale tale. The interior is perfect. It has the smell of oil and leather than you only get with a classic air cooled 911.
The car has a rebuilt transmission.
It has recently been seen by a local specialist who gave it a once over in preparation of sale.

-compression test / leak down

These two cars just went on eBay, for market comparison:

Make me a reasonable offer.
VIN is WP0ZZZ91ZBS100812.
Country of origin for this vehicle was Germany. This is why it has the far more powerful, higher compression German engine and lower ride height.
The car has been legally registered in New York State with no problems whatsoever. I have the clean title and had no issues registering it.
You can run it through carfax or autocheck manually and see that it checks out.
