Porsche 911 of the Week #1

In short, 911s are my catnip. Each week, I'll post pics of a cool 911 for lust's sake.

This week, we have a wickedly quirky example of a 930, as seen in my header. Like all 930s, it's hips and tail all the way for this one.




This lightweight "special wishes" example features special order kiln red paint on a kitsch-tacular olive green interior. Dig those original Recaros!

The seller has setup a website detailing everything about the car, from its origins as the personal car of LeMans racer Francois Trisconi (don't worry, I never heard about him either), through the subsequent owners, all of which is documented with stacks of maintenance paperwork.

930 series 911s are gaining value rapidly, and deservedly so -they're fast, tail-happy cars "hewn from solid granite" (thanks Mr. Clarkson), and they're packed with more badass street cred than you can shake a frankfurter at. More eye candy for the Porschephiles here.
