According to VIN documentation, the car was produced in April 1986 and delivered new to the United States. It retains its original 3.3-liter turbocharged flat-six engine and four-speed manual transmission, consistent with U.S.-market Turbo coupes of the period. The specification includes a factory electric sliding sunroof, alarm system, and period-correct interior trim.
The CARFAX report documents long-term U.S. ownership across California, Missouri, Florida, and Colorado, with no accidents or structural damage reported. Service entries span multiple decades, and the car has remained registered and road-used rather than dormant.

Developed in response to the dominant 935 race cars of the late 1970s, the slanted front end with pop-up headlights brought true motorsport aesthetics to the road-going 930.
