A guy I've known for a long time has an original factory flatnose, and it's his baby... he's a manager of a Porsche dealership near me and every nice day out I see him driving back home through my town. Beautiful car!

I know I'm not much help, but figured I'd share.

This is the 1989 factory slantnose I bought in 2005. It is grand prix white with cashmere interior and only has about 28,000 miles, because it sits in the garage way too much!!!

This is my '89 factory slantnose cab that I have owned since new. It has just under 9,000 original miles and is 100% stock.

Many thanks.... Your new 930 is stunning as well. Enjoy it and take good care of it. 930 turbos in that original condition are becoming harder and harder to find.

True. At the end of the day, everything is for sale. But at this point, my selling price would have to add an extra 'zero' at the end of the purchase price. It's that special. i.e. I'd give up the 930 for a Carrera GT (low miles of course!) and every Fathers Day I keep reminding my teenage kids that I'd gladly accept a Pagani Zonda
Other than that, I can't think of much else I'd rather have.
Perhaps not completely accurate (above), but I drove the car to and from a weekly C&C yesterday with many high-end cars (it's Silicon Valley after all) and there weren't many cars there that I'd rather own instead of a near-new 930.
