Vehicle Description
Motorcar Studio is pleased to offer this 1985 Porsche 911(930) RUF
Slantnose Turbo Coupe. With the same Atlanta owner an active
PCAmember for the past 22 years who has spared no expense on
mechanical or cosmeticupkeep.� Clean CarFax with no
accidenthistory; 72000 original miles. COA.�Details are slim
regarding this 930's early life -- it wasimported by a Mr. Jurgen
Van Beekum and federalized by South Coast Compliancein 1985. In
1992 it was sold to a Dallas Cowboys defensive end who kept it
threeyears until the current owner's purchase in late 1995. The
Slantnose conversionand RUF upgrades were completed prior to our
client's purchase in '95.� We believe this to be a high-quality
steelconversion based on the twin headlight motors used -- Porsche
kept no recordsof factory Slantnose builds in 1985 so even if it is
a factory build it wouldnot be listed on the COA or option
sticker.Speaking of the RUF build this goes far beyond a badge
andsome gauges. Genuine RUF parts abound including the sought-after
dogleg five-speedgearbox gauges intercooler/intake system and more.
Complete engine rebuild11000 miles ago at a cost of nearly $40000.
The turbo waste gate and fuelsystem have been upgraded and it's
running stainless B&B exhaust. We'vedriven lots of 930s but
never one quite this impressive -- boost builds fastand the close
gear ratios allow you to keep the turbo spooled between shifts.It's
totally streetable but way more flexible and much faster than a
stock 930.It's also remarkably dry underneath.�A high quality
repaint was commissioned in 1996 in thecorrect A1 Black finish and
it remains in stunning condition -- always garagedand covered when
not in use. Likewise the interior shows beautifully with
some"enhancements" typical of the period (leather-clad Recaros door
cardaccents tasteful but upgraded stereo).There is nothing quite
like a Slantnose with the right (andvery expensive) go-fast parts
thrown at it -- a truly iconic 1980s supercarthat is as
exhilarating to drive as it is to look at. This is a
high-qualityexample that's had a caring long-term owner and would
be a nice addition to anycollection. COA records and tools
included. For more information about this1985 Porsche 911 Turbo for
