Beautifully narrated ride in a beautiful car!

Excellent job describing the drive. I agree with the double clutching, I do the same with my SC. I want the 915 gearbox to last as long as possible! What an amazing car to drive. Solid, reliable, fairly easy to maintain. And I get compliments driving all the time. Only dudes seem to care though :)

Fellow SC owner here. Nothing like that view out the windshield with that music behind you.
-
Thanks for the ride!! ....and sharing your knowledge.
-
Well done sir. 911 SC is one of my favorites. Congrats and thanks for sharing.

Interesting, I recently bought a 3.2 Carrera, without ever having driven one, and was surprised at how much of the 'boxer note' comes out onboard. I'd never really heard that from onboard in any videos of the aircooled stuff, but I certainly do in this one.

Nice Job! Loved the sound effects.
-
You called it an old pair of shoes -- That's the exact analogy that I use! I describe mine a worn old comfortable shoe.

Terrific vid! The gauges on your SC and of those eras are beautiful and timeless. The engine note is intoxicating, you can hear everything from the gears to engine pounding away. I own a 987 Cayman S an I believe it's sorta a homage to those old air-cooled 911's. Safe driving !

Loved your vid, really missing my ‘81 SC in Babyblue now, but as soon spring arrives I’ll give it the revs!
-
Very cool. Thanks for the ride and info. Im thinking about buying one similar (as if I need another 😅)

Looks like an early SC? Very reliable car, but I can only speak for my 82 911SC. Improvements were made through the years. Most noticable was the horsepower. Model year 1978-79 - 3.0 liters, 180 hp - model year 1980 - 3.0 liters, 188 hp - model year 1981-83 - 3.0 liters, 204 hp.

Thanks for the good video

So awesome
-
Great car and video. I have a 991.1 and it is awesome but just does not have the roar of an air cooled. Best of luck!

First notes, gauges have weird chrome around them, steering wheel is also some strange thing. Headlights are from a Carerra series 1987+. Yes, shifting from 1 to 3 to 5th “around town” doesn’t make sense. Not sure what kind of towns there are in the SE, but I can’t imagine any of them would require 5th gear.

Had an 80 coup and a 81 targa loved them
-
Nice car...good drive. I prefer rev matching. Have had my '82 911SC since 1987 and know it extremely well. As such, I base the quality of a drive on the smoothness of a shift, and rarely miss one. It's not about speed anymore, but would love to hear the argument for double-clutching.

Cold start says the guy in a T shirt! Ps colder are has more O2. You can adjust rich lean pending on temp/ season

Air cool life 😎 👌
