Rick...that 930 slant nose is choice! GLWS...I'd be in the running for the 930 if I didn't just pick up a 993 c2 cab, 993tt, and a 997tt in the past 2yrs...my wife would kill me.

Would help a lot if we knew what color the interior was, what options like Pano roof, keyless go, etc. it has and what if any of the common issues like ABC, trans/motor mounts, etc. have been taken care of. Other than that it's a nice looking car at what seems like a decent price.

Need to post some pic of the inside! Saw nothing in your albums but exterior shots.

Nice stable by the way. The Charger and 930 are sweet!

930 is BLAST to drive compared to my 993tt, but the 993tt is more enjoyable to drive.
I just want to reduce my big toys, however just bought a new 2013 VW GTI last week.

Asking price is 30k? The wheels shown...which two sets are included? I see two sets of black wheels and one set of chrome/aluminum wheels.
Nice ride!
