1979 Porsche 911 SC - Targa review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing. I purchased this car six years ago, raced it on the track and in autocross events, drive on weekends or to work (10 miles) on a nice day and it just runs great. These cars defy the laws of physics once you learn how to drive them. I had a 928S-4 for a while and it was expensive to run but god-awful fast.
