1983 Porsche 911 Turbo (Real Euro Spec 930)
1983 Porsche 911 Turbo (930) For Sale (SOLD)
History of the 930
got supercar? Based upon the 1974 Porsche 934 RSR this is a real racecar that runs wonderfully on the street. The 934 was called the 934 because it was a 930 in Group 4 racing. These cars were built from 1975-1989 (introduced in 1974). The 1975-1977 were 3.0 litre with the smaller KKK 3 LDZ turbo producing 260 HP. The 1978-1988 were 3.3 litre with the K27 turbo producing 300 HP (282 in the US). In 1983 the KE-Jetronic fuel injection was introduced for the 930. This was the last major improvement until the 1989 model year. The 1989 was the last and only year to have the 5 speed Getrag G50 transmission. All others came with a heavy duty 4 speed as their older 5 speed could not handle the torque. The cars were not always available in the U.S. and many were imported by private owners as dealers could not get them due to pollution and safety issues. These production cars were overbuilt by Porsche to allow better rule compliance in their racing division. No overheating like other performance cars as it is air cooled. The car runs great at low RPM for boulevard cruising. These engines have no "lumpy cam issues" which is a valve overlap problem at low RPM. Most, if not all, muscle cars suffer from this valve overlap problem which creates driveability issues. These cars come stock with 917 brakes. These cars have it all - great acceleration, great visibility, great stopping power and great cornering ability due to an extremely low centre of gravity as the boxer motor lies flat. It is also art on wheels! $32K CDN firm. This is the car that is in the XBox Forza Motorsports 3 game.
Overview of this 930
Only 59,000 original accident free miles. Best colour combination - black on black. Looks and is, evil, wicked, mean and nasty. Recent complete rebuild of motor (<1,000) both bottom and top end. Nearly completely original car. There are a few minor changes but I have the old parts except original rims and original steering wheel. These can be purchased from LA Porsche Dismantlers. Fastest production supercar available in 1983. The Porsche 930 was the fastest accelerating production car in the world from 1978 to 1985. This car will beat a stock 1969 Hemi Cuda or stock 1970 LS6 Corvette (fastest muscle cars of the day) or stock 1983 Ferrari in the 1/4 mile and in top end. This 930 will only go up in value. Black on black with black leather interior. This is 3.3L Turbo flat six boxer motor with 4 speed transmission producing about 340 HP (300 stock Eurospec + 1 bar boost + performance muffler + synthetic oil). I have never raced it but it should run 1/4 mile in mid to high 12's and run 0-60 in well under 5 seconds with a top speed of well over 160 MPH. You can add headers, Kolkeln intercooler and K&N filter for about another 100 HP. The car will then be producing about 450 HP. I recommend keeping the car original and it will always continue to be an excellent investment. This car has just had a complete BC Government inspection with clean CarFax report (I imported the car from the U.S.) and no ICBC claims. Have other documentation. This is a real 930 with wide body and whale tail and is in excellent condition. Full original leather interior with turbo logos, AM/FM/CD plus original radio, power windows, power sunroof, alarm and car cover. Dash is good - no separation. No test pilots. Car needs nothing, runs awesome. This is a real Hemi Killer and will bring great enjoyment. Can get up to 25 MPG if you are not heavy on the foot. Qualifies for collector plates. No leaks, no smoke and starts easy. Car is currently garaged in Burnaby so please phone ahead to arrange appointment to view. Guaranteed to vastly improve your sex life. CAR SOLD AS IS unless we negotiate conditions e.g. AirCare or return to original, fix all issues, etc. Canadians note that I have already paid the GST/PST, Import duties and shipping. Canadian VIN Assigned by ICBC is the the same as the original German VIN: WP0ZZZ93ZDS000552. Please note that this car is Eurospec and they did not sell these cars in Canada or the U.S. in 1983 as they have no catalytic converter (18 HP more). You could not go to a Porsche dealer and buy one. You would have to import from Germany as a private citizen. Check with your state or province but this car should register easily as vintage and is not required to have the emission equipment. This is my daily driver currently although I do not drive that much. This car is licensed with ICBC and has been for one year.
Conditions of Sale:
(a) I will guarantee the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity for this car VIN proving that this is a numbers matching car and a real Porsche 930 European Specification.
(b) I will guarantee that it will pass AirCare.
(c) I will guarantee clear title and that are no liens on the vehicle.
Full Disclosure
Some issues with the vehicle: horn not working (it used to work), headlight switch in the dash needs replacing. Leather seats could use a dye job. Floor mats could be replaced. There are a couple of small rock chips. The brakes are starting to pull. There is a TINY bit of surface rust around the battery (normal due to gases) and inside the top back surface plate above the motor (probably due to heat) and NOWHERE ELSE. All pretty minor. The undercarriage has undercoating and is all GOOD. These cars (since 1976) have rust proofing as well and do not rust out like the older Porsches. The car is running a bit rich and could use a minor tune up. It is very reliable and starts easy. I have had everything major done recently. There has been over $20,000 spent recently. You will only have to spend a couple hundred to fix these minor issues or I can have it done for you.
This Porsche 930 Will Be In An XBox Game
This car is going to be in a Microsoft XBox game. The photographers came on Wednesday October 15, 2008. You will be able to perform a virtual test drive...unfortunately the car will probably be sold before the game is released.
I guarantee that I had a photoshoot with Microsoft and they told me the car would definitely be in the game. Apparently Bill Gates used to own a 1979 Porsche 930. Go figure I was a programmer as well...
See: Bill Gates' Porsche 930 Unfortunately I had to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement. I am not allowed to tell you the name of the game except that it is a new release of an XBox game. This Porsche 930 was used to create the car in the game. This will be great selling point in the very near and far future.
Serious Enquiries or Trades Only
I am open to serious offers and this will be your last chance to own a real 930 for a 911 price. Please note that this car is NOT A 911. It is a 930...the parts prefix start with 930 and NOT 911. A 911 is a Volkswagen compared to a 930. You think your 911 is quick? Give me a break!
DO NOT MAKE AN OFFER if you do not have the money. Serious enquiries only. Offers of $25,000 are NOT serious. I was originally asking $44,000 for this car but I will sell for thousands and thousands less... ABSOLUTELY NO SALESMAN LOOKING FOR MONEY ON ADVERTISING. NO SCAMMERS. I will sell to international buyers but you will have to wire transfer the funds before I ship the car. I guarantee clear title. I need another cheaper vehicle. Do not phone with other trades but I am open to negotiation for trade for about a $5,000 fuel efficient vehicle plus $27K cash on your part depending upon the trade. My asking price will be much lower than a US vehicle. If you can find one cheaper SHOW ME THE CAR. There are NONE, only pretenders (930 look, etc.) or they need major work. No flippers or pikers - If you are looking for bargains then go to WalMart. Use your common sense please. If you do not have that then I cannot sell you this car as you would be putting the public at risk. I do understand that the economy is in a dive and vehicles are going for less these days but I am NOT giving the car away or letting every PCA dreamer see it or drive it. I will just keep it and drive it until the economic sun shines again - and drive around you on the highway in the meantime. No more pikers, punks or con men with rich uncle stories. There are very few Canadians who can own this car so please bring proof of your financing/bank statement/vehicle registration (if trade is being considered). $32K CDN firm.
Documentation
You can download documentation - receipts including the engine rebuild which is less than 1,000 miles since - bottom end and top end, CarFax report, Provincial Inspection report, etc. plus more photos. It is 2.3MB.Download from: Porsche 930 documentation Zip file
Please note the last digit is missing from the engine rebuild sheet. I have had other mechanic makes mistakes on my other VINs as well. This is a clerical error by the rebuilder as the VIN would be incomplete and it is not trick. It should be 2. You can phone the rebuilder to verify if you do not believe me.
I am not a photographer but I will be setting an appointment for a hoist and will add many photos of the undercarriage. Microsoft is supposed to send me photos and hopefully I can use those as well.
Collector Car Status
This car needs just minor finishing here and there to get this into excellent condition. All of the major work and expense has been done but I have now exhausted funds so I will terminate this project. I can easily finish the project for you if you desire and wish to negotiate that in your offer. I have the sources and identified all minor issues. e.g. Any or all outstanding issues will be corrected by me (return to 100% original or fix minor issues or get detailing or guarantee AirCare or whatever...)
My sources tell me that collector plates in BC are only $300-$400 per year. This only needs a different steering wheel for a cost of $300 to qualify if you have another daily driver. The rims are apparently period correct and I have an original radio. This car is very close to original and is super rare. Bring one up from the U.S. and you will have to add another $8,000 (depending upon purchase price) plus the exchange. I have already done this and paid for it already.
Importing From US
A $30,000 US car will cost you well over $45,000 CDN landed. This car is a bargain. These cars sell for $60,000 back in Europe and Australia. The cheapest place to get one is the U.S. Lets do the math using the cheapest source:
$30,000 USD * 1.25 exchange rate (Oct. 23, 2008) = $37,500 CDN
Canadian Cost $37,500.00
GST 5.0% $ 1,875.00
PST 6.0% $ 2,250.00
Import Duty 6.1% $ 2,287.50
Air Cond Excise tax $ 100.00
Shipping estimate $ 1,000.00
Importer fees $ 1,500.00
Provincial Inspection $ 200.00
================================
TOTAL $46,712.50
Plus any repairs required to pass provincial inspection. I am probably missing some estimates and costs as well. Thank you to somebody ??? else who pointed out some of the missing costs. I have now updated this. Be prepared to spend up to $50,000 to get your $30,000 US Porsche 930 licensed with ICBC. That cost is if NOTHING IS WRONG WITH YOUR IMPORTED CAR.
Build Your Own (yours will be non-matching):
Replacement motors are $41,000 USD
Used motor is at least $8,000 USD or $10,000 CDN
Used 4 speed transmission is at least $3,000 USD or $3,750 CDN
Rebuild is at least $12,000 USD or or $15,000 CDN
Rolling chassis from LA Porsche Dismantlers $20,000 USD but it was sold and is no longer available.
I did see a rolling chassis on eBay for $10,000 USD which is a super bargain but it still needed body parts ($3,000-$5,000 USD est.) and other parts never mind the transmission ($3,000 USD) and engine ($8,000 USD minimum for a used engine). Now you just have to put it all together and hope it all works.
NOTE: I COULD sell this car in parts as follows:
Complete Rolling Chassis ($15,000 USD OBO), Rebuilt 3.3L Turbo engine ($12,000 USD OBO), 4 speed transmission ($3,500 USD OBO), Tires and rims ($2,000 USD OBO). These prices are well below what LA Porsche Dismantlers or Oklahoma Foreign or Pelican Parts will charge. A 1989 5 speed transmission sells for $7,500 USD.
NOTE: Do NOT take this car to Targa Performance. I took it there and they cost me about $2,000 extra for parts and labour that I did not need. Everytime I took it there the car performed worse and was actually dangerous to drive. I believe that Chris, their mechanic, does not know these cars well enough. Maybe he is good at 911s but certainly not 930s. I eventually took it to Joe and Frank at Dependable Brake & Muffler just up the road from me in New Westminster. They did a wonderful job and was actually cheaper. Joe also has a Porsche 930 which he rebuilt himself so he knows these cars. His is pushing over 500 HP. I highly recommend him.
