Looking for a 79 or 89 930 in Slate Gray. Yea - I know tall order to pick your color. I liked the one at Truespeed a white back and am also mildly interested in the one they have now which is metallic black (fairly similar to slate). Know of any for sale? I would also consider a rough 930 which requires some work - I would do the work and paint it my desired color.

Yep. I have had many different Porsches. I think the 930 is very special.

This one is not slate gray but it's a sweet color...metallic black..as a previous poster said he had http://www.truspeedmotorcars.com/car...s.php?cid=2196

I like that car but seems expensive given it had some minor paintwork. It's on the potential list for sure. Seems like its worth 55k and they want 64k

I'd say $55k is too low, I think fully original paint 930 are $90k and up.

DFW,

I recently saw this car in person at Truspeed.... not realizing it had once belonged to pu911rsr.

As a fellow 930 owner, I was curious about this car and spent +/- 45 minutes going over it. My opinion is that $67,9k is not an unreasonable asking price for this car and if you can get it for $64k, you ought to move on it.

This is a nice car that presents itself well. It is not perfect (100 point) but early 930s in that category have all passed $100k with exceptional examples (as Phil mentioned) approaching $150k. One of my 930s is a 100 point, PTS Gunmetal Grey Metallic with 1,800 miles and I just turned down crazy crazy money for it.... because I doubt I could replace it.

There are a lot of roaches and and tasteless '80s modified junk available on the net, but unmolested examples are continuing to climb in value !

Best of luck with you search.
