I'm not sold on the idea yet though...
I've been called a heretic, but it is really a matter of market tastes.

Simple lines, narrow bodies, retro colors, and chrome accents are all "in" -- the "long hood" look.

Mid Years: narrow bodies, chrome accents, few tails/spoilers, and more interesting colors.

SCs: wider bodies, anodized trim, lots of tails, fewer interesting colors (but more than Carreras)

Neither car is a barnburning straightline performer, and a rebuilt mid-year 911S without restrictive smog stuff probably doesn't give up much to a heavier 3.0 SC.

The more these cars become cruisers and collectibles, the less the performance and reliability advantages of the SC cars matter.
