Description
1978 Porsche 930 Turbo
VIN 9308800170
The VIN matches in the window and in the front trunk.
I checked the engine code and serial # and I believe they match with the 1978 MY.
California model
This is the perfect weekend driver.
The car is only driven on nice days, stored inside. It always runs and runs strong. No pulling or coughing. Hardly a rattle either. Brakes are amazing. It’s used mostly for dinners and running around town. I’ve taken in on 300 mile weekend trips with no issue.
Repairs and upgrades:
From the past owner: The original owner back dated the car to the early 70s style exhaust headers so there are no cats. I've got receipts for head studs, carrara chain tensioner, new clutch, ss oil lines, new bilsteins all around. Lots of other minor stuff too. Front seats are newly redone with Porsche leather. All done around 5k miles ago. Has an adjustable Porsche waste gate, set at 1 bar.
New modern headlight from Pelican (still look stock to my eyes). Re-wired the fuel pump and stereo circuits to take the load off the fuse bar (very important). Added a new RarlyL8 straight-through muffler. I have a custom car cover.
Performance:
With the higher boost and straight through exhaust the car is a rocket. The sound is louder than stock, but is very nice. Car runs straight and true. Everything is very tight. 3rd gear acceleration on the freeway is ridiculous.
Issues I know of:
Re-spray of factory white
There are a couple small marks on the panel under the door near the jack hole where I’ve had to touch up with paint stick.
I noticed a small amount of rash on one of the wheels.
The AC is non operational. Needs a new compressor at minimum. I removed the belt.
Heating system works, but is simplified on/off.
I don’t have the manual, but I do have one from 1979 that came with it. I don’t have the original tool kit or receipts from before 2000.
Some trim/weatherstrip pieces are not quite centered properly
The interior is very good condition, but shows some wear.
If you intend to drive your car then what's the point of buying a $200K show condition 930? This is the happy medium; great looking, great running and priced in the middle of the pack.
