1989 930 Turbo Cabriolet, 5-speed G-55 on 2040-cars
Little Britain, Pennsylvania, United States
1989 marked the last of an era, dominated by Porsche's 3.3 liter air cooled turbo...Production of which ran from 1976 through 1988 with a 4-speed transmission. 1989, the last year of production, due to supply limitations from Getrag, they installed the G-50, 5-speed transmission. Only 600 US spec turbo cabriolets came to the US...
This one, built November,1988, was optioned with M-070 Tonneau cover (black), M-220 Locking Differential, M-243 Short gear shift, M-391 Stone guards not installed, M-494 two rear speakers, M-494 Amplifier system, M-513 Lumbar seat right, M-586 Lumbar seat left, M-691 CD -1 stereo, M-935 Rear seats Raff leather, M-975 Velour carpet in Luggage compartment, M-980 Front seats, raff leather, CO-3 California emissions.
It has since had its radio upgraded to a modern CD. (The first generation factory CD�s were Alpine-Porsche iterations...All broke and are not repairable) Otherwise it is stock, and unmodified, as best we can tell.
The previous owner of 16 years, was very diligent in the care and maintenance of this car, and it shows. He continued an officious service schedule, even while he was living in Europe. Serviced by Porsche of Luxembourg when in Brussels, and Chelsea Carrera while in London.
Still wearing all of its original paint, with the tiny exception of the windshield cowl, which we just completed perfectly. The cosmetics are very high, with just a few touched up stone chips and a couple of touched up scratches, that you�ll need to search for.
We recently got it out of storage, at 68,900 miles, and while adjusting the valves, noticed a broken head stud�So, we completed the necessary service work, rebuilding the engine with Raceware studs, Mahle pistons and cylinders, oil return tubes, air injection tubes, rebuilding the heads with new guides, reseal, A/C recharge, New RE-11�s on all four, New struts front and rear, and replacement of oil lines as needed.
All the books & service records, spare tire, jack, and complete tool kit.
Freshly detailed, serviced, and ready to run with the big dogs!

Get lost in Evo's sublime 2013 Car of the Year testing
Fri, 08 Nov 2013Every year Evo stages its Car of the Year test, bringing the best performance cars in the world to one location for an epic shootout. This year the magazine pitted eight CotY finalists against each other on Route Napoleon in Southern France - Evo claims it's the "best road in the world" - and then proceeded to nitpick the smallest of faults on each car until the winner could be named. You see, this year's lineup of machines was just so good that only one car obviously wasn't CotY material from the get-go. Can you guess which one judging from the list below?
- Aston Martin V12 Vantage S
- Audi R8 V10 Plus
Porsche announces works team for United Sportscar Championship
Tue, 24 Sep 2013Porsche is undoubtedly the most successful manufacturer in sportscar racing, and it's only upping its game. The German marque is launching its new LMP1 racer for Le Mans in pursuit of overall victory once again, and now that sportscar racing in North America is coming together under one banner in the United Sportscar Championship, Porsche has announced it is entering the fray with a works team here as well.
The new Porsche North America racing team will field two cars in the entire inaugural season of the Tudor United Sportscar Championship that's been formed out of the former Grand-Am and American Le Mans Series. The team will be based out of the Porsche Motorsport North America facility in Santa Ana, California, and will partner with three-time ALMS LMPC winners Core Autosport in getting a pair of the latest 911 RSR racecars to the front of the GT Le Mans class.
Drivers have yet to be announced, but are projected to be drawn out of Porsche's factory driver program, which includes such talents as Patrick Long, Timo Bernhard, Romain Dumas and Neel Jani. Keep reading below for the official announcement.
All Porsche 911s to get turbos in 2015?
Sun, 19 Oct 2014Currently, Porsche builds two turbocharged 911s - the Turbo and the Turbo S (and their cabriolet counterparts). The rest of the 911 range, meanwhile, is motivated by either 3.4- or 3.8-liter flat-sixes of varying outputs. This clear separation could be set to change in the very near future, though, as rumors continue to swirl that Porsche's rear-engined range could switch exclusively to turbocharged power.
This time, it's Car projecting that the 911 range will go turbocharged as part of a mid-cycle refresh, with the base Carrera's 3.4-liter dropping to 2.9 liters and adding an iron lung, bumping the entry level 911 up to 400 horsepower. Yes, a 400-horsepower, entry level 911. The Carrera S, meanwhile, will retain its 3.8-liter engine, but will also benefit from turbocharging, increasing output to 530 horsepower and 520 pound-feet of torque. So basically, it sounds like the current, 520-hp 911 Turbo will become the next Carrera S.
What does that mean for Porsche's traditional high-performance models? Well, it's a safe bet that the Turbo, Turbo S and eventual GT2 will be producing seriously huge power figures. Based on pure speculation, we wouldn't be shocked to see a 600-hp Turbo, with the S and GT2 increasing output markedly from there.
