I'll be glad to change my 'facts' if we have positive proof of either 300 vs 330hp

If someone could try their VIN(preferably'78-'85) on the decoder and see what comes up I would appreciate it, interested to find out the true info

You can get a COA from porsche that will tell you all the options it had, ~100$.
I'm pretty sure you have to have the quad exhaust, as it's actually part of the 330 package.

think that is probably what we'll do, COA is a nice piece to have with the car anyhow, if the 330hp doesn't show up I will adjust my ad accordingly; she runs damn hard for 300hp let alone 330hp the 6GT2 is the first Porsche (chronologically) we've driven that feels quicker ...

Very nice car. Who cares 300 or 330hp
Worth every penny. Wait until spring and get your price.

Thank-you! I agree they are fast and fun cars regardless of rating, it’s priced right to move quick as I would like to make a move on a certain GT2, but would love to and will keep the 930 forever if the right person doesn't come along...
I'm a track guy, and while have never had the 930 on a track, I have driven lots of other air-cooled's, wayyy more exciting than the water-cooled stuff; weight shift is fun and useable, pedal placement is better IMO, and less stuff required to have a reliable/safe track day...

+1 Accuracy is very important, but either way this looks like a very special car at a very reasonable price. I do like the white, the black contrast is fantastic. GLWS

Going to look into getting the COA today, I agree 100% about accuracy. Car won't be sold unless is gets $40k+ and transacted through dealer for tax break, if the sale takes til Spring and the GT2 is still available, then something will happen then

Let us hear about the COA, I tried but PCNA can't access ROW info, or so I'm told.

that is one of the nicest original looking 930s I have seen. My car is an 84 euro and I am 99% sure it only has 300 hp FWIW. There is a crude dyno plot in the owners manual.
