Affectionately called the Green Machine - this Slant nose 3.0 SC has a lot of money put into it. It's a definite love it or hate it car, in a South Miami Beach/Miami Vice type style, but with the money in the engine alone, is worth buying.

It has a slant nose conversion, wide body Strosek style flares, period Rial German mesh wheels, and a built engine with a PAXTON Supercharger. Yes, a blower. With an estimated 300hp, this is as quick, or quicker than many 930 turbos – BUT – without the boost lag, so easier to drive. The engine was built using a rising rate boost-sensitive fuel pressure regulator, MSD Boost retard ignition, B&B Fabrication muffler, lower compression pistons, larger CIS injectors, HD head studs, HD clutch, large center mount oil cooler, new oil lines, upgraded brakes, etc. This engine sounds fantastic. Between the normal 6 cylinder rasp and the blower whine, it will turn heads even without the green color. I have a binder with receipts totaling about $25k.

It had a high end sound system installed as well - MB Quart components, many speakers, and a very large amplifier. Body is actually quite clean in terms of rust. Paint and custom flares are not to the highest standard – there is overspray here and there, etc. But the bones of this car are solid, it's fast, fun and very attention getting. Parked in a sea of more expensive, and more exclusive machinery, this always draws a crowd. Was used as a Stereo shop display vehicle, for that exact reason. With a little TLC to bring it up, would be a great fun-car to drive anywhere, or play the market, sell off the extras and return it to stock.

$30,000

You're not the only one. And it gets lots of (surprisingly good) attention.

What kind of wheels are those? Are they unilugs?

No, normal 5x130 Porsche bolt pattern. Rial - quality German TUV approved wheels - period correct, etc. They made them for Mercedes and other cars as well, hence the cast in reliefs. They are roughly on par with BBS, or were.

I had those on a Konig 500sel in the late 90's, moved them from 126 to 126 for years. They looked great on the 126 chassis.

Me too. I've always liked Rial wheels.

That car is awesome, and even though I'm not in the market, seems really fairly priced compared to every other air-cooled 911 I've seen advertised in the last couple of years.

Thanks SEADave. I think so too, because it's the same price I see a lot of very average 911 SC's priced at, that have nothing special other than lots of miles. They are great cars, and still great values compared to the earlier 911's (which I also love).
