Condition:

This 1982 Porsche 911 (930) Turbo presents as a fundamentally honest, long-term owned, matching-numbers example in a desirable period-correct specification. The body is structurally sound with straight panels, minor paint imperfections, and some localized bubbling—trade-offs for originality and age. The interior stands out for its preserved Pasha seats and clean, untampered dashboard, though key electronics like the clock and AC require attention. Mechanically, the car shows signs of use but nothing alarming; the original drivetrain, known service history, and evidence of roadworthiness are reassuring, though the gaps in recent maintenance invite a fresh service. Underneath, the car is solid with no major rust but does have surface oxidation and aged components typical for a 930 of this mileage. Wheels and brakes are true to type, with recent tires being a notable plus. Overall, this car is a good candidate for an enthusiast seeking an authentic 930 experience with minor cosmetic and functional issues to address—a very acceptable example, particularly for those prioritizing originality and mechanical honesty.

Valuation:

Based on the recent auction results, similar mileage and originality 1980-1984 Porsche 930 Turbos in “good” to “excellent” condition have transacted between $91,000 and $120,000 USD, with the top results reserved for lower-mileage, highly detailed, or rare-spec cars. This particular car falls squarely in the upper “good” to lower “excellent” range due to its originality, documented history, and match to desirable color/interior combination. The visible bubbling, surface corrosion, and some non-functional ancillary equipment do reduce its desirability slightly from the top tier. Factoring in the minor but visible corrosion and the honest, used-but-unrestored presentation, a reasonable market range for this example is $95,000–$110,000 USD. This situates it slightly above mid-pack thanks to the provenance and completeness, but slightly under “excellent” due to the minor cosmetic and functional issues.
