Beautiful 3.2. Great pic!!! Congrats and welcome to the club.

[RPV911]

Thank you all. The color is Iris Blue. The lighting is different so it looks saturated. I’ll post more pics today.

Congrats on a stunning car in an unusual color! I'm a fellow '85 owner.

Well it’s been awhile and things have changed quite a bit. The dealership I purchased the car from had sent it to a mechanic to do a valve adjustment and per my request fix the AC. After they were done the car wouldn’t start. It had been there for a month already and I was getting quite impatient. In the meantime the dealer had mentioned a 1989 coupe they just got in and that it was ready to go. I went to check it out and had to take it off his hands! Swapped cars and hoping to take delivery this week. Palm Desert Auto sells a great selection of cars including classic Porsche’s. Check them out. Debating on keeping the 17” Cup wheels and powder coating them black or find a set of 16” Fuchs.

Beautiful either way but the wheels have to go, giant spacers

IMHO

Congratulations!

Oh, what a pity... the first one was much nicer.
Never mind, as long as you are happy!
enjoy!

They actually don’t have any spacers at all. I checked yesterday. Bigger offset?

Previous owner did a 930 front brake upgrade. Wonder if the wheel choice went hand in hand with that.
