With the help of my brother, TT Surgeon, I finally found a 930. The car is a 1983 grey market 930, 38K miles, with all federalization papers. The car is a 2 owner, imported from Germany in 1984. The second owner took possession about 13 years ago, it has sat in a NYC parking garage ever since then, only driven about a thousand or so miles in that time. The car was basically neglected.
From the ppi and our own inspection it has a few minor oil leaks, needs a new rear speaker shelf, new tires and some minor paint work. The good news is everything works and the car runs strong. Leakdown numbers were 5% or less on all cylinders.
The car looks to have an aftermarket exhaust in place (?Borla?). There is also a question as to wether the car was a "special wishes" car, with a 330 HP upgrade. I need to do some more research on this. The VIN doesn't indicate it, but I have learned a lot of the special wishes cars were upgraded after completion so the VIN may not tell the story.
Right now the car is in NY waiting to be trucked down to Texas, where Viking Motorsports will take care of it and set things right.
Not bad for $20K...
