In 1977 (model year 1978) Porsche launched a new 911: the SC (Super Carrera), which was available in two body variations: coupé and Targa.

At the time of the launch, the window and headlight surrounds as well as the door handles were chromed, just like on the classic 911, while from 1979 onwards, the window surrounds and door handles were black and the headlight surrounds were the same colour as the vehicle.

The wheels fitted as standard were 15-inch ATSs, which many owners replaced with the sportier Fuchs, reminiscent of the 911 2.7 RS.

For the first time, the exterior mirrors were electrically operated and painted in the same colour as the car's bodywork.

The 911 SC was powered by a 3.0-litre flat 6, the output of which increased over the years :

- 180 HP in 1978 and 1979

- 188 HP in 1980

- 204 HP from 1981 to 1983

The bodywork was enlarged and from 1981 onwards, side indicators were added to the front wings.

The model pictured here is a 1979-1980 model, with window surrounds and handles in black, body-coloured headlamp surrounds and no indicators. It was equipped with the famous Fuchs wheel rims as an option.
