Hey everyone,

new here just wanted to say hello - a little history behind my 930, my father bought it new in 1980 had a good friend import it from Germany. It is a true euro 930, I've been staring at it since I was a tiny kid dreaming of driving it. He told me one day it would be mine -- now I'm 21 and the dream is reality. I've grown up around this car and I wouldn't trade it for anything. ~20,000 original miles.

Mods: Custom exhaust
Cams
Changed out the original autobahn gears for some closer ratio gears to make it more drive-able here in Florida
(few more mods that I will list later)

My father had done all these modifications himself, I believe he had some factory tuning done to the car as well when it was ordered.


I'll put up some more pictures later because I just got finish detailing the car.

The plan is for my wife to give her '91 C2 Targa to one of our daughters and my '79 930 goes to the other. Congrats on such a beautiful car. Sounds like you have a cool dad!

Beautful car, having the family links makes it all the nicer. WATCH the rear end!
