Now I am not going to change the Ruf bumper from my car, because I don't want to give 965 any undue credit. When I blow by... it will be said that a twenty year old 930 just shook the **** out of another victim... LOL

Though 965’s are awesome cars, the image conjured up in non-p’car owners mind is the whale tail 930.

When non-owners ask what Porsche I just bought and I say a 930, most will
tell me “man you should of bought that car they made in the 80’s with that big wing in the back!”

930’s are 800 pound, chest thumping, alpha male gorillas and can best be described as violent!

Long Live the 930!

Noooo, don't mess with the 930 body!! It is the best looking Turbo of all times! If anything, I'd rather see a 964T get some 930 bumpers. OK, I do like the Ruf bumpers though..... Just my 0.02.

The defense counsel for 964 turbo's would like to submit people's exhibit A into the court's possession for arguements sake

Simply beautiful. A gorilla in a finely tailored suit...

kimo964

Yup, the 964T is hard to deny.......great color, wheels, stance, splitters.....just great.

LeonardZ

ooooohhhhhh.....

Duly noted Counsellor, yours is the reason I wanted to go this route. I love the splitters and add some Techart fogs/vents and the case is closed.

dholling13

I agree... The wife will hear those requests next winter

turbo 3.6

Quite likely, but i bet it aint stock.

I was just having a little laugh with you guys, my first comment wasnt knocking 930's in anyway what so ever - hey it was an early silver 930 on the poster on my bedroom wall as a kid that made my want one of these things after all ;-)

All i was trying to say is 930's are awesome in their own right just as they are, (bumpers etc) and that i think that making them look like something they are not (ie 964/965) IMO actually detracts from what they are.

You guys have some awesome cars btw.

Schnele, what is the spec on yours?

Schnele,

Have you dynoed your car? Do you have power figures per chance?

Thanks,

Jim

schnele

Jim I am waiting to complete the AC system, she will be on the dyno in April come hell or highwater.

I like the front end on Rod's car, but then I have the same one. Mine is black so I never noticed the smile. I wonder if a fiberglass part painted white could be had to replace it?

I also like the 965 as well, but won't see one in my garage any time soon unless I win the lottery.
