930S Cab door gaps
 
Have been hunting for a 930S cab. I need some guidance from the experts!!

The two cars I have looked at ( Cabs, low mileage, no mods etc) have horrible gaps at the doors., The rear door upper gap is a good 1/8 wider than the gap mid door to lower door. Same issue with upper gap front area of door. Gap has been 3/16 - 1/4 inch wider than gap mid door / lower door. Also several I have looked at have horrible gaps with the front fenders around A pillar - these are are factory slantnose not aftermarket. Frunk lids/ front hoods/headlights have good gaps, Doors close perfectly with the ping sound.
​​​
My questions:

1) Are all 930S cabs from the factory with poor panel fitment?
2) Is it a fluke that the two I have looked at both have these poor fitting panels?
3) Are the cab bodys tweaked which is causing the poor fit?
4) tops is opening a closing fine so appear to be within spec?
5) no sign of accidents or body damage on either car. Paint meter perfect on each panel etc.

Sample of poor fit:

All comments appreciated. If panel fit is my OCD issue - would looking at 930S coupes resolve the fit concern?

Thanks, Speedster

any opinions on the gaps on these slant nose cars?

From that picture angle it looks off. Need pics from the side, straight at each door.

I have a low mileage '88 factory slantnose cab and the door gaps are perfect.
