Unique European-Spec Porsche 911 SC Cabriolet

(German-delivered, and 1983 was the only production year for the SC Cabriolet)
You only live once – it’s about enjoying life while you can. Take a spontaneous night drive with a friend on a warm summer evening, or surprise your partner with a weekend getaway to Copenhagen. This Porsche feels tailor-made for just that. It’s fun, comfortable, and exciting to drive. Not a fan of the decals? They can easily be removed.
Mechanically, everything is in excellent condition and delivers pure driving joy. In Norway, the car has been owned by true enthusiasts who’ve maintained it in top condition. It comes with a thick binder of history and annual service records. It has seen Nürburgring, the Atlantic Road, and several European road trips. It’s even met Jacky Ickx, Magnus Walker, and Derek Bell. In short — not for everyone, but loved by many.

FACTS
The first 911 Cabriolet was launched in 1982 as a 1983 model. This is one of those early models, finished in the same color as the 1982 promo cars. Originally purchased by a German doctor who later brought it to the US for work. This explains the miles/km mix on the odometer — note that the Norwegian registration lists mileage in miles. The car has covered approximately 179,000 km. It’s a genuine Euro-spec car.

SERVICE HISTORY
The car comes with a binder so thorough it would make an encyclopedia salesman jealous. Everything you need to know about its health and history is there.

This is a matching numbers car. All original parts are included, meaning you can easily return it to full factory spec if you wish.

CONCLUSION
A well-documented Porsche 911 full of driving pleasure.
Buying and selling a classic car should be a pleasant experience. That’s why we’re up-front: the car is sold as is, with no guarantees. Owning an old car is a hobby, and sooner or later, something will need fixing.

We're selling the car on behalf of the owner who doesn't have time to handle the sale personally. Feel free to come see it,  and if you’re seriously interested, we’ll take you for a drive (With us behind the wheel). But fair warning: this car is bold and sexy. It’s easy to fall irrationally in love. And hey,  isn’t that a good thing?
