84 built 930, thoughts?
I keep coming back to 930's after having convince myself that a 996 turbo was the answer...
Anyhow anybody have any thoughts on this car. I've got the issue of excellence where it was featured however it looks like there have been some changes to the car. It is a far cry from the stick 930's I have been searching... but so far all the stockers have left me wanting for a little more power. I think the "tag" stickers and the sticker on the front bumper have to go.

Hey there KJ1,
Beautiful looking car, I did read over the spec.'s pretty close, and had to raise my eyebrows a tad bit.
First I noticed that they claim full coil over suspension, then tell you that the torsion bars were put back in?? In the pictures you can see that the front shock towers have not been reinforced for the use of coil overs (no pictures of the rear suspension to check out). I do know that it is not manditory to do the reinforcement, but it is a real good idea to eliminate stress cracks, so I have to wonder why the torsion bars were put back in??
Just a casual observation from the peanut gallery.
