1989 930S TURBO 10 BUILT
Hey I have purchased a 1989 930S Turbo from France and there was only 10 built in 1989 to commemorate the last year of the turbo, it has 959 seats, upgraded engine 385 HP, daul two engine exhaust. Porsche specifically took 10 cars off the line and reconstructed them in 1989 and 8 were sent to Germany and 2 to France. I do have some information but was wondering if anyone else had any information on this car or what it would be worth.

Nice, looks like the SE 330hp engine, bigger IC, quad exhaust, optional extra console,super sweet!
I believe those are the optional sports seats, 959 seats are different, I'll post a pic later.
Lucky man.
price, need more info, pics, miles, engine status, etc. really anywhere from 75-150k based on the info provided.

To commemorate the last production year of the "old" 930 Turbo, the french Porsche importeur ( back in the days, SONAUTO ) did indeed decide to launch a special batch of cars ( need however to double-check if 10 cars is the right figure ).
Those cars were all equipped with the 930/66s engine, 959 seats ( with grey color stripes ) and various other different "930 S" goodies ( 4 pot exhaust, front spoiler, oil cooler etc...).
Those cars not to be mixed with works 1989 Turbo S cars of which only 21 were built.
If I'm not mistaken, the french importeur SONAUTO never got the authorisation from Porsche Stuttgart to officially call the small batch of french cars "930 S" and if you give the VIN of such a car to Porsche archives, you'll get following answer : Porsche Turbo 3.3 MY 1989
I would have to dig deeply into my documentation to check if I still have some period information about the "French Market 930 S".
A very interesting car, congrats

You're right ( even all lamps yellow !) but this changed at some point ( don't exactly remember when, maybe 90s ?! ) and we have now same lamps as the rest of the crowd
In the Netherlands, cars also had yellow lamps... but they changed too.
Less funny but clearly better on the road
