Previously sold at the St. Louis Car Museum is a beautiful 1987 Porsche Guards Red/Tan Leather 911 Turbo! Equipped with an electric sunroof and limited slip differential! One of 1,403 Porsche 930 Coupes brought to America in 1987! Only 34,238 original miles!
When Porsche introduced the 911 Turbo in 1975, they had essentially created a homologation special that was meant to sell 400 copies in a 24 month period. After they sold five times as many in that two years, they turned the project over to their marketing department, who took the 917/30 CAN-AM 3.0L and applied the technology to the Carerra RS 3.0. Porsche called it the 930 and almost immediately, it became the meanest car on the street. With blistering performance but also a comfort level not often associated with two-door cars, the 930 was a 911 on steroids, equally at home on the track as it is blasting through the Swiss Alps. As the first generation of the now storied 911 Turbo series continues to increase in value, the car remains highly collectible among air-cooled Porsche enthusiasts!
We are exceptionally excited to offer this 1987 Porsche 930 Coupe! The car is finished in a Stuttgart classic combination of Guards Red over Tan Leather upholstery with Guards Red piping. The car is fitted with its original 3.3L Flat 6 equipped with a KKK turbocharger that makes 282 horsepower and 288 lb-ft at 12 psi of boost. Notable features and options on this car include an electric sliding sunroof, limited slip differential, 22.5 gallon fuel tank, fold-down rear seats, rear window wiper, courtesy lights, Blaupunkt Lexington CM54 head unit with door speakers, upgraded MSD ignition and custom stainless steel exhaust system. The car rides on original Black Fuchs wheels with polished lips and colored Porsche emblems wrapped in 205/55ZR15 front and 245/45ZR16 rear Dunlop SP Sport 8000 tires.
Originally bought new in Miami, Florida, the car was used sparingly and only 30,400 miles were driven in the first six years of ownership. By 1999, this 930 had switched hands and made its way to a collection in Puerto Rico, where it stayed until late 2014. All mileage increments, clean Car Fax report, and the overall excellent condition of the car would indicate that the 34,238 miles are original to the car. The car is mechanically outstanding, with tremendous power, tight steering, taut but forgiving suspension and a crisp gearbox. This was the fastest car on the market upon its introduction and has no trouble keeping up with performance cars of the 21st century. The air conditioning was recently serviced with new compressor, dryer, control thermostat, expansion valve, retrofit to R134a along with fresh Freon, and now blows cold. The tires have plenty of tread life remaining.
The car is ready to be enjoyed immediately and as such a low mile example, certainly qualifies as a fantastic investment. This 930 is one of only 2,281 built in 1987 and one of only 1,403 brought to the US. We have little doubt the next owner will be thrilled to put it in his or her garage! Any interested parties should feel free to call with additional questions! Thanks for looking!
