Porsche 911 Targa Sportomatic red For Sale (1979) edit C118680 | | | Porsche 911 Targa
3.0 SC
Early tiptronic
Sportomatic
1979
Original receipt kept, ordered in black look, with centre console.
Also rare two tone interior. Not plain boring black.
This is a very rare Porsche very special, serious collectors need apply only.
This is the last of its kind in 1979 the sportomatic was discontinued.
In 1977 only 215 sportomatic Porsche 911s where made worldwide. In 1978/1979 the numbers are unknown, as you can see this is a very rare car.
Some people confuse this with an automatic transmission. It is not. It is more properly described as an automatic clutch. It has a manual gear box and a pretty normal shift lever and manual shifting pattern. You still have to shift gears yourself, you just do not have to concern yourself with a clutch pedal. You and you alone decide when to slip into another gear. Once you decide, you grab the gearshift, shift, and release, all faster than you can read that previous sentence. No clutching necessary. When driving fast and hard over twisty roads this makes it effortless to stay in whichever gear you most desire, even after hours of driving, you never get tired.
In traffic and stop-n-go City driving the Sportomatic is a dream. With a torque converter and the gearing Porsche dreamed up for this car you can leave it in second gear and go anywhere from a dead stop to 45 mph comfortably without changing gears. Parallel parking on hills without worrying about burning the clutch is another bonus. If you want to make a quick getaway from a stop light, drop it into low, tromp on the gas pedal and the car positively streaks away just like you would expect of a Porsche.
