Currently selling on a Bring a Trailer Online Auction. View the auction here.

This amazing and fully documented 1987 Porsche 911 Turbo with 31,000 original miles is a great example of a highly collectable European Sports Car. This car is a documented two owner vehicle with a clean Car Fax report. The 930 Turbo 3.3L was produced from 1978-1989 totaling 18,770 units worldwide. For the 1978 model year, Porsche revised the 930 with a larger 3.3-liter turbocharged engine with intercooler rated at 282hp. To fit the intercooler a newly designed “tea-tray” tail spoiler replaced the earlier whale tail spoiler. Porsche dropped the “Carrera” nomenclature for the North American markets and the car was simply called the Porsche 911 Turbo worldwide. The larger engine helped reduce some of the turbo lag inherent in the earlier models. As the original factory window sticker documents this example was ordered and shipped to Ogner Motorcars, Inc. located in Woodland Hills, CA. It was ordered with a Silver Metallic exterior and Black leather interior. It was also ordered with an electric sunroof and limited slip differential. As the original “Motor Vehicle Purchase Order”, original “Odometer Statement” and original “Due Bill” document it was purchased on July 7th, 1987 by Robert Faust who lived in Sherman Oaks, CA. A receipt of payment made in full was issued on July 20th, 1987. Robert was an excellent caretaker and always maintained the car properly which is documented with 16 service invoices from 1987-2007. Robert moved to New Mexico in July of 2006 which is indicated on the original New Mexico title. On March 2, 2007 Robert decided to sell the car with 26,081 original miles to Willhoit Enterprises which was a used automotive dealership located in Springfield, MO. This is also documented on the original New Mexico title. On March 20th, 2007 the car was sold to Michael Foley who lives in Bristol, RI which is documented with the original “Retail Buyers Order”. On April 22, 2007 Michael sent the car to Musante Motorsprorts located in South Windsor, CT for a complete service. Musante Motorsports is well-known and respected in the Porsche community. Musante Motorsports suggested an engine out service which is extensive. Some of the service also included some upgraded parts. As the service invoices document Michael invested a total of 30,291.75 in parts and labor which he didn’t mind because he was going to keep the car along time. He had the car dyno tested and as the dyno sheet documents it put down 375hp at the rear tires! Michael was also an excellent caretaker and always maintained the car properly. During the next 16 years Michael only used the car on special occasions averaging roughly 300 miles per year. It was stored in his garage on a car lift and was covered with a battery tender. During his time of ownership he found the original owner Robert Faust’s wallet under the seat. The wallet contained his license, 1 Admirals Club card, 3 credit cards, 2 California registrations and 3 insurance cards. Michael tried reaching out to Rober to return the wallet and learned Robert had passed. Michael kept the wallet and everything in it which is included. Michael is now retired and in his 70’s. He and his wife are moving down south closer to family so he decided to sell the car. Michael contacted MS CLASSIC CARS about purchasing the vehicle before listing it for sale. MS CLASSIC CARS jumped on the opportunity and purchased the car in September of 2023.

The exterior of this car is in absolutely beautiful condition throughout. It truly presents like a 36-year old car that was kept in a bubble. The body is in excellent overall condition. The Silver Metallic paint is stunning and was recently detailed to a brilliant shine. MS CLASSIC CARS tested the paint with an electronic paint meter for originality. Everything with exception of the hood and driver’s front fender tested as 100% original factory paint. Since the car has never been in an accident it’s assumed the hood and driver’s side fender were scratched or chipped which required some repainting. As original receipts indicate the mirrors, hood, fenders and headlights were covered with clear protection film in 2007. The entire original factory stamped tinted glass is in excellent condition. All of the black trim is also in excellent condition throughout. Some exterior standard features include a windshield antenna, heated windshield washer nozzles, front and rear spoilers, heated and electric mirrors, headlight washers, integrated fog lights and rear window wiper. The car sits on 16” Fuchs alloy wheels that are wrapped with Bridgestone Potenza RE-11 tires that are 205-55-16 on the front and 245-45-16 on the rear. The front tires are in overall very good condition with date codes of 2014. The rear tires are also in overall very good condition with date codes of 2015.

The interior of this car is also in absolutely beautiful condition throughout. It retains 100% of its original black leather upholstery which looks excellent. The four-spoke black leather-wrapped steering wheel frames VDO instrumentation including a central tachometer with a 6,700-rpm redline as well as a 170-mph speedometer and gauges for oil pressure, oil
temperature, oil level, fuel level and boost pressure. It’s equipped with an electric sliding roof as indicated on the original window sticker. Some of the interior standard features include power windows, central locking system, automatic heating controls, air conditioning, front electric seats and Blaupunkt Reno cassette radio with 4 speakers. As the original Motor Vehicle Purchase Order indicates a Derringer Alarm with locks was installed by the selling dealership. This alarm system is no longer fully installed and not operating. The front storage compartment is in excellent original condition. It retains all the factory paint markings and stickers. It also retains the original spare wheel with inflatable tire, inflator, jack and two tool bags.

The engine compartment is nicely detailed throughout. The 3.3L Flat 6 cylinder air cooled Turbo engine runs excellent. During the engine out service by Musante Motorsports in 2007, the engine was completely gone through from top to bottom. During this process a new billet precision ground camshaft and new Borg Warner Quick Spool Turbo #K27-7200 was installed which is the upgraded version. The Wastegate and Boost Controller were also installed. The original factory Turbo is included. During the time of the service a Billy Boat 3” chrome exhaust system was installed. The original factory exhaust system is included. The engine is coupled to the original 4-speed manual transmission that shifts smoothly. During the time of the service a new clutch system was installed. The exact details of all the service work completed are documented with the invoices in the photo gallery.

The undercarriage is extremely clean throughout and still retains some factory Cosmoline. It also retains the original paint marks on the parts. During the service process the entire suspension system and braking system was gone through. This is also documented with the invoices in the photo gallery.
