I love how, despite his already stellar collection, Harry can barely hide his excitement at having got his hands on this Porsche. He's like a living embodiment of the enthusiast in all of us!
Congratulations, Harry, and welcome back to the Porsche family. The seats are what they called at that time „Sportsitze“ and they were stock on the turbo S but also available as an option for the rest of 911 bunch. I have them in my 30th anniversary 911 (964) from 1993 (Jubiläumsmodell), too. I think those were the last 911 cars (they really built 911 of them) that have these special seats. In the 993 model there were also „Sportsitze“ available as an option, but they were of a different kind. The RUF wheels were also available at that time as a „Sonderwunsch“ from the factory. In the early nineties Porsche changed the name of the „Sonderwunsch“ department into „Tequipment“.
Many thanks for this excellent info. Seats are excellent and good to know they are standard equipment. Ruf wheels being available at time of build is surprising but will check it out
@@harrysgarage Check the date stamps on the wheels. They either have or don't have stamps on the back side, depending on who manufactured them. I haven't had RUF Speedlines, but other RUF wheels, and the wheels had year, and month denoted by dots. Congrats on purchase. Cheers.
PS. I just texted Kerry and this was his response, "One problem - I have no recollection of ever having owned it and fortunately no one has asked - for some reason my name gets attached and maybe I did the importation and that would have my name on it." The other cars like the 935s and GT1, I've seen before and know Kerry's connection. However, this 930S is something he's never mentioned in the past. Stunning and rare example. Congrats for the find. Enjoy. Lovely video as well....thank you for sharing.
its always amazing how many rare, obscure, not-well-documented versions of these older cars were made/exist. nowadays with the internet and the ubiquitization of in-house tuning companies stuff like this just doesnt really happen anymore i feel like!
My wife's grandfather was the head mechanic at a giant garage here in Germany (they had 150 mechanics at one point!) and they were a Mercedes specialist and tuner long before Mercedes had the parnership with AMG. According to him they built the strangest things. Many of the rich and famous clients had quite extravagant tastes... but that's the thing, all these cars were unique and built to an extremely high standard. Just as good as the factory would have done it. On the one hand it's great that we have such high standards for our (regular, from-factory) cars nowadays, on the other hand it's a bit sad we now rarely individualize them.
She sounds wonderful, Harry. Great addition to the fleet. I'm sure someone out there will get you what you want for her history. When they do, be sure to update us!
That may be one of the best car/wheel combinations I have ever seen. Absolute perfection! I believe I have seen one of those near where I live. There is a very big Porsche collector that lives in my city as well. Never thought it was anything more than a very nice 930 Turbo but I swear the black headlight surrounds stand out.
Guards red on a 911 is like red on a Ferrari. It’s just is the one. I too would want to look to another colour but on 911 it just works. Think I couldn’t commit to a new red guards red paint . Used. Yes. Happily !!!!. Red on anything else. Horrid. Mostly. Imagine a fire truck / pillar box red Mondeo over a silver one. !!!!!
I owned an apple green metallic 930 for a while. Loved it - unmatched combo of comfort and rabid pace for something of its age. Bit of a pig to keep running sweetly, though, and mine was mint. You definitely don't have to apologise for taking it easy on cold and greasy roads.
Maybe the Head of Porsche historical archives, Frank Jung, can give you a helping hand. Normally Porsche is greatful and supportive when it comes to special cars. Maybe worth a call, I would try it. Nevertheless…. the car is awesome and the wheels look spectacular.
It will also have a stiffer wastegate spring to bring the boost up to a BAR compared with a normal 930 at .8 I believe. Those Rufs are period correct due to the stepped lips, later Rufs have smooth barrels. They'll either be 17/10 and 17/8 or some folks run a 17x9 up front. And if its correct the strakes in the side should be made of wood. Congrats.
Delighted for you Harry. Your obviously thrilled, as I was a couple of days ago to purchase my first Ferrari- an F355 manual. My wife says my mood has never been better!
@@arthurdardalis yeah, people butch about this all the time. I swapped the hood shocks on my ‘87 Carrera 8 years ago and the hood still stays up. Also - it’s not Porsche quality - they outsource these along with MANY other parts. Porsche quality - no. Porsche tax - yes.
Thats a great addition to the fleet 👍 There was a similar car offered in the UK called the 911 Turbo LE. Each dealer got one to sell & there were 50 in total.
@@Petrospect Since it’s fully restored he could switch it to RHD and the value would probably stay the same. Then he could keep the parts in a crate and probably increase its value. Edit: I meant RHD.
@@Jan-ct7ih Because it’s a PITA to drive around with the driver seat on the wrong side of the car. You are at a much greater risk of an accident because you can’t see around cars for oncoming traffic. This Porsche was fully restored and the mileage has been reset so there is no argument for “purity” it was completely disassembled every screw has been messed with. Therefore this car should have no problem being switched to RHD and retaining its value as a rare anomaly.
Big congrats on the purchase! Also many thanks for all the high quality content you have been providing us, and continued to do so during the pandemic. Best wishes from Sweden
Many years ago while I was living in Munster in Germany, I remember walking past a Porsche dealer, and saw one of these in the window, stood there for Ages, totally in love LOL. Take care, love your vids. ,
My gosh Harry you’ve bought a great one ! I suppose we will witness an euro tour during the spring with you driving this special car. Being left hand drive it’s going to make your life easier during the drip. Love the content!
Harry, i dont think there is an other garage with a more pure 80/90’s poster car collection with all in matching colour range + F40. What a outstanding Porsche to match up with the Italians. Don’t change those wheels pls.🍰
Congratulations on the new purchase. Ruf wheels are absolutely perfect for the car, would embrace them completely and not give it another thought. Assume 45 degrees (7 degrees C) would be in Fahrenheit for US market, which would tally with the salt on the roads and your outfit!
We're terrible for jumping from degC to degF in the UK. Harry did say later in the video it was 6deg. Wheels are fantastic, but I'd like to know what it had originally.
If history at school was this interesting I would have paid more attention decades back....another excellent informative video delivered with infectious enthusiasm.
I had 3 posters on my bedroom wall in the 70’s, all centre spreads from Motor, triple test of the Countach (complete with 100 yard tramlines) 911 Turbo and Ferrari Boxer iconic cars of there time. Those photos have stayed with me and take me back to that time with such clarity. Congratulations on achieving your perfect set. I’m only mildly jealous, must be great to achieve your dreams.
Best idea to contact Porsche. With regards to the original specs their archive is known to be very accurate. By the way....a beautiful car! Love the "indischrot" colour.
Amazing, Harry thanks for making my day. I own and have been building for 8 years (4000 hours) 2 very bespoke (1987/1988) 911s NA 3.2-3.4L 300hp G50s with the Singer / Theon / Outlaw as inspiration. I'm constantly amazed on the quality, nuances, engineering and -sometimes after thought from Porsche. How about that deep frequency ping when you close the door...
You old man(I’m 32), but yes, Harry is awesome and has been for many years. I remember reading EVO as a Teen and having to get it from 45 min away because nobody local had it
Absolutely love this car. Thought it was an SSE. Never knew that these turbo S existed. What a find. RUF wheels were the best period wheels on this age 911 imho.
Love how this car looks. Love those wheels on it. Love the black accents. And some cool history as well. Stop complaining about the beautiful new interior lol
WOW! Harry, great find and video. Had no idea these existed and, as a former 80s Porsche owner myself (very young man with a 944 that I got on a super-deal for less than a Honda CRX Si that I had my eye on) I thought I knew the whole lineup, as I aspired to a 930 and then 964. Wow. You can tell it's lower on the video even when you stand near it. What a beauty with those extra necessary body intakes etc.
Sonderwunsch, wunderbar. Very well pronounced. Takes me back in time, when i worked at company Behr in Germany in the Sonderfertigung or special parts department. We hand manufactured the wood trim dashboards for the 911. Was either the G series or the 964. One time, Herr Porsche signed the glovebox door himself, prior to us applying a coat of protective lacquer. Thanks for bringing back these memories. ✌
Beautiful machine. Sounds great, I'm sure it drives wonderfully. Seeing those Pirellis on the Ruf wheels in the opening shots reminded me of a question that always floats in my head: compared to reviews at the time, how much does a set of modern rubber improve them? Seems like the posted numbers were always slower than the power/weight ratio would indicate if it were a modern vehicle. Oh, and that 'vestigial' exhaust outlet: love it! What an un-German thing to do on an otherwise extremely German car!
Lovely car! The Turbo S looks very similar in factory spec to the 1989 930 Turbo Limited Edition. Do you know what the differences are? My friends Dad was lucky enough to have an LE from new bought from Mann Island Porsche in Liverpool. Still my favourite car to this day. His was also guards red and had Fuchs alloys in a ‘creamy’ white, which might sound odd but looked fanbloomin-gorgeous!
Of the many amazing exotics you have reviewed this is the one that just made me envious. Its a time machine that took me back to dreams of the late 80s. What a car!
03:12, I have that exact Car magazine publication, purchased from back in the day in pristine, off-the-shelf condition. I only bought it because of that main 935 review.
Harry, at end of 930 production in 1989, they made run out editions for various markets. have a look for the UK 930 LE, these were 330bhp Slant nose spec with the regular upright Turbo front wings, 53 UK cars, 1 per dealer. This looks like like an overseas market equivalent? Personally I would source a set of Fuchs wheels.
Same engine upgrade at least. The strange thing is they stated so many technical modifications to the engine yet only claimed +30 hp or 10% up on original. I would guess the real number is higher than that.
I can't imagine the price of this car as it's perfect in my opinion . At least it's one of the best examples on the road and he will improve price in future. Got to admit I'm really jealous :)
Just stunning! I've always wanted an impact bumper 911 - a modest Carrera would do me, but they are now sliding further and further away sadly, price-wise. Very jealous Harry, enjoy!
This car once belonged to Freisinger Motrorsport, FIA WEC N-GT Champions in 2002, 2003, 2004. Am I really the only one who recognizes Manfred Freisinger´s name??? Unbelievable...
Excellent job Mr M. Another Harry's Garage video I wanted to see even before I clicked on the thumbnail. The Porsche is sensational! Please leave it as is, RUF wheels and all. 5⭐
Can't say I'm a fan of Porsches (Hell, back in the days when I read Evo, before Harry left it did my scone in watching them win car of the year every single year, year after year, like a needle getting stuck on a record!) but that sir is a lovely looking car.
Having one of those cars at home in a garage would be most peoples dream but to have them all in mind blowing Your a very fortunate guy, a great video and I’d choose the Porsche
Congrats to the Turbo S Harry. May I add a personal taste note? Those black "mascara" rings on the headlight may be original but unfortunately not pretty. Can you get a set of guards red ones and store the black ones for the time being? Thank you in advance. :-D
At this point I just hate Porsche and JDM. I'd rather have something unreliable, ugly, uncool, but I'd rather be building it myself and it's gonna be my way. But they really try hard to stop me. Everything is about "safety" and "standards". Britain had so many small custom car factories and people rather buy a mass produced Nissan or Porsche and call it a "restomod"... These past 2 years told me a lot about our society, so I'm not surprised.
I love how, despite his already stellar collection, Harry can barely hide his excitement at having got his hands on this Porsche. He's like a living embodiment of the enthusiast in all of us!
With the wallet to afford it.
As someone who’s never really been into 911s, I just like to say… what a lovely, lovely car that is! Please don’t bin the Ruf wheels, they’re ace xx

Fantastic find, perfectly in line with the 80's big gun! Congrulations. What a magnificent garage.
I've never been much of a Porsche fan, but I admire a beast that squats on the road like that. Such a lovely stance it has. Very nice.
Perfect addition to your collection.

Harry, without fail, delivers what we like and love!!!!!!!
That is quite a line up, especially all in bright red. Stunning bit of kit, arguably the best wheels for that car too, lovely.
I agree. I hate the classic Fuchs wheels. They may be very fine, light and all, but, heck ALL porsche has them. And they look utterly cheap !

Perhaps there a good reason they won year after year, just like on track.
I was the same then bought one last year and they’re class
What a trip to see my three favourite Matchbox cars from my childhood, lined up in the flesh all these years later. Great collection Harry!!
Max won F1, Harry bought air cooled Turbo S. What a Day!
Having one of those cars at home in a garage would be most peoples dream but to have them all in mind blowing
Your a very fortunate guy, a great video and I’d choose the Porsche
Jeez after watching the Abu Dhabi GP, this seems sedate !
Such an icon. You can see how quickly the rev needle goes round on boost!
Most 911 thing ever: the only way to recognize a new one is by oil cooler
My good god… when you swung the camera round to the new Porsche my chin hit the floor… that thing is stunning 👌🏻
If that 930 came UNDER your radar, then surely you would have missed it!
Harry knows cars - but not military equipment apparently!!
Congratulations on the new car. I once owned a 1991 911 Carrera 4 964 Targa in Black. Superb Car.
Congrats to the Turbo S Harry. May I add a personal taste note? Those black "mascara" rings on the headlight may be original but unfortunately not pretty. Can you get a set of guards red ones and store the black ones for the time being? Thank you in advance. :-D
Wow!! It looks incredible!
At this point I just hate Porsche and JDM.
I'd rather have something unreliable, ugly, uncool, but I'd rather be building it myself and it's gonna be my way. But they really try hard to stop me. Everything is about "safety" and "standards". Britain had so many small custom car factories and people rather buy a mass produced Nissan or Porsche and call it a "restomod"... These past 2 years told me a lot about our society, so I'm not surprised.
This comment makes no sense.
Well done Harry, there's probably about half a million of us just as excited as you are, what a fabulous addition! Thanks for sharing yet again!
I didn't think your garage could be any more perfect, and then you go and buy this! Great purchase Harry, she's stunning. Those wheels!
Oh, my.. What a gem. And you're spot on, Harry -- I had no idea these existed.
