I was lucky enough to find my prussian blue turbo at Champion Porsche back in 2001. I'm not sure the car will ever be for sale ... but there are a few out there. As a matter of fact, I had my car at Dave White Racing (now Vortex) in Tampa recently and there was an 86 there in prussian blue, 1985ruf you may want to contact Viper Bob at Vortex to see if the owner would be interested in selling.

Gratuitous picture included.

Regards, Dave

Thanks Dave...and might I add that your Prussian 930 is looking hot? I appreciate your response. Is Viper Bob called Bob Brooks and located @ 5217 W. Hillsborough Ave. Tampa, FL? Just want to make sure I have the correct shop.

will e-mail them soon as soon as I confirm with you that this is the correct shop.

Jim,

That is the correct location, Viper Bob is his username on the forums and he is the owner of Vertex. Bob's shop is great, with lots of great cars at the shop. If I come across any pb 930s I'll certainly let you know. Thanks for the compliment on my car, it is a real treat (and challenge) to drive on the track.

Regards, Dave

When searching for a rare bird you may have to accept a few ruffled feathers.

Good luck with your search.

Whats not origonal about the seats?

It did not come with sport seats or limited slip differential according to the option code sticker and those are the standard seats you would get then.

The interior is in good shape but the color may be a little off from the flourescent lighting in the showroom, and they are a little underexposed.

I would say the mileage is in the lower range for most of these cars.
Looks pretty clean to me.

these seats are newly upholstered...i can tell by the stitching and creases...the original seats were more firm than supple/soft.

I'm thinking south of 20k. An ultra low mile example would hit the spot.
