Temptation got the best of me...

I've always loved the look of 930's but since I was not able to experience one in person, I settled for a clean 996TT a few years back. Some may remember my thread.

Eventhough I love my 996tt, I could not get over my attraction to a 930. So I gave in to temptation and now I have both.

I bought a 1980 930 that has been in storage for the last 20 years. The car is in good cosmetic condition but it is in need some work like repairing oil and boost leaks and catching up on 20 years maint etc. It still drives good. I love the way the car feels. I can't wait to get it running great! Here are some pics:

Nice line up. I've got the bug as well now. Trying to determine if I should sell my C4s for a 997 turbo or keep it and buy a 930 turbo or 91-92 turbo.

To me, your porsche is pretty much what owning a porsche is all about.

Congratulations on finding a very sweet car.
