Porsche 911 SC Super Carrera Cabriolet, carbon fiber 993 Turbo look update

Description

For sale is my 1983 Porsche 911 SC (Super Carrera) with 49,500 miles on the original 3.0L 6 cylinder naturally aspirated engine mated to a matching 5 speed manual transmission.
The 1983 model year (which was actually produced in 1982) marked the first year of a Cabriolet version on offer for Porsche since the 356 Speedster. The SC was even more luxurious then the Carrera 3.0 of the years before. This particular SC engine is reliable and bulletproof, significantly improved over the 2.7L versions of the 70's, which were ticking time bombs unless you replaced the magnesium valve covers. The 3.0 is easier to tune, delivering 204bhp in its stock set up, and offers more torque at lower revs. The air cooled SC in particular was much nicer to drive compared to its earlier Carrera counterparts.
This specific example is, in my opinion, special. Not only has it been perfectly maintained for the last 33 (34) years, it is aesthetically even more exclusive than its own pedigree and provenance, having been professionally upgraded to the 993 Turbo look of the 90s with a full *carbon fiber* body - over $20k spent just on this build.
Originally a Texas vehicle (and currently registered in MA), this Porsche 911 is completely rust free and has been pampered and babied all its life. A garage queen for weekend driving, literally everything functions as it should: transmission is smooth and tight, the clutch really bites when it engages, the brakes are thick, strong, firm and responsive. All electricals have recently been overhauled, every light dash and gauge functions. The engine compartment is as clean as a whistle, the transmission is smooth and predictable, and the interior is 9/10. There is no rust, no cracks on the dash, no tears on the leather. The canvas top is literally brand new and has never seen rain. Even the e-brake works perfectly.
This Porsche 911 has been driven a total of 2,500 miles in the last 6 years and it is ready for a new home.
The title is clean and clear, and this car is priced for a quick sale. I intended on upgrading the current exhaust setup to a Fabspeed dual outlet exhaust for that true 993 turbo look (it is *not* a turbo) but my family's priorities have shifted, which is the reason I am selling.
As with all classic / antique vehicles, the insurance premium on this Porsche 911 is extremely reasonable, only $460 annually through Hagerty.
Since classic cars all have their quirks, no matter how perfect they may look or seem, below are a few disclosures of things I would personally work on throughout the winter to improve in the condition of the vehicle. These "personality traits" are reasonably factored into the price of the vehicle and amount to minutiae:
1. The clock on the dash is slow; it "functions" but it does not keep time.
2. The driver's side window could use a realignment and adjustment of the stop gap. It's not necessary to do this for any functionality purposes, just a personal thing if you want everything "tight and perfect". This is a straight-forward process.
3. The passenger side external door handle has a slight, ultra-minute wiggle when you pull to open the door, millimeters of wiggle (whereas the drivers side is completely tight). Again, it functions as expected, it does not move or rattle when the car is in motion, and the process to tighten the bolts is straight forward (remove door panel, tighten bolts). While in there, I would likely adjust the stop-gap on the window as well and possibly replace the power window motor just because. It works, just a little slower than the driver's side.
4. The rear spoiler could use a minor adjustment/alignment for aesthetic purposes as the hinges within the engine compartment have settled and a quick tune would be good. Functions properly, opens and closes as expected, vents sufficiently, does not overheat the engine, provides exceptional downforce at high speeds (which you can really feel in the turns during spirited driving, through I have never had this car above 4,000 RPM).
5. Obligatory disclosure to the "does it leak oil" question. It's an 80's Porsche, of course it leaks/consumes some *after* driving. From my observation over the last 500 miles, despite the few drips after a long ride, the drips stop after sitting for a few minutes and the dip stick shows the oil level is still completely full.
6. Dual outlet exhaust would complete the look of this vehicle. The current setup sounds perfect - factory catalytic converter, great sound, but the dual look would be nice. After all my research, I would go with the Fabspeed system. I can have this work done prior to delivering the vehicle if the buyer is willing to pay for it, approximately $1300 for the exhaust and $100 for installation.
Besides the above, the car looks better in person than it does in the pictures and it drives and handles so exceptionally that words literally cannot describe. I hate to sell it but life changes and you just have to roll with it. Would love to see it go to a good home.
Low reserve. To ensure a smooth buying experience, complimentary free shipping to any city in the continental U.S. is included in the final price at or above reserve. If a lower price is negotiated, if buyer is local to the Northeast, or if the car sells before the end of auction, I reserve the right to rescind the free shipping offer and/or offer a discount to the buyer as a courtesy, or possibly deliver the car myself in person.
LASTLY:
In my experience offering such cars for sale in public forums, I am bombarded with emails from dreamers without intention or means to purchase this car; as such, if I sense you are wasting my time, I will not respond to your request for information.
Demonstrate that you read this ad and know what you're looking for and I will be more than glad to assist you with anything you need: pictures, videos, financing, etc.
Best of luck.
