Depends. Honestly there (and were) not many unmolested, un-flared, un-Miami-viced middles - especially '77s left right now to really matter anyway. They were all hacked up, parted, and played with from these years. Many have different motors, etc.

From a investment, the clean, low-mileage '77 2.7 will win over a SC for investment. Maybe only by a couple thousand but it will. It's a numbers game and a lot less untarnished '77s are out there - a lot less.

Depends if you like the narrow body. I do. Depends on if you want to still deal with a 2.7. SC people and 3.0 engine people really don't talk about the Divilar stud issue until one breaks - then they have to take the whole entire engine down. The 3.0 is not a perfect engine. The case is better, but you still have work if small things go wrong.

Ending this I would not say I would I have a '75 2.7 S if they were not cheap back years ago. They were really inexpensive. I would have rather had a SC. But a SC was three times the price. Now that things have caught up and the game is closer I still would probably take the SC but the narrow body, chrome trim has really grown on me. Would I sell it for a SC? Maybe, but the SC would have to be just as mechanically sound.

Any 911 from 1974-1989 is fine with me. The later years are still nice. They are all nice. They are all awesome cars to me. I would take whatever one had the best paint, best records, and best interior. Year would not matter.
