Default Picking up 930 today....

I will be picking up my 1986 turbo today. It is a Guards Red with black interior car with 54k miles.
I appreciate the advice and suggestions given by Rennlist members on the purchase. It certainly made my buying experience more reassuring. I am ready to enjoy and drive it. Photos will be posted soon!

Make sure you turn everything on/ off make sure it all works. Drive it hard up hill down and all over. Also in the book Porsche buyers guide it gives a step by step guide to doing the inspection before purchase. If all goes well Congrats! You are going to love the car more and more everyday.

is the high idle rpm and low oil pressure normal?

Been in love with these cars for over 30yrs. now, and never get tired of seeing pictures of them. Also nice to see an unmolested version, getting harder and harder to find. Good luck nd enjoy.

Love It.

I told my wife........"two more years and I can get historic plates on the 930".

She didn't realize the car was 23 years old.
These cars transcend time.
