    Interesting 79 SC coupe

    The simplicity and color strikes a chord. Looks like a great daily driver.

    Karl,
    hmmmmmmm... Euro, great price, Local, more miles........ not crazy about the spoiler. The car is on Vince's board I will check closer...... Love the brown. What is the difference between a euro 3.0 and a USA motor?

    I thought you'd find it tasty ...
    Not much i think. Euro's got a bump in compression in 80 and 81, giving them a 20HP jump or so. Back in 78/79, I read that car was kept at lower HP for fear of antagonizing marketing's golden child and future of company - 928. So no real difference between US and Euro engines.
    Different trombone oil cooler in front, perhaps, as well as bumperettes being smaller, side marker fender lights, and dash lights perhaps different.
