This is an extremely rare 930 Turbo Targa. One of only 31 made at the factory with the M505 slant nose option. There cars trade infrequently and typically in the $400-$500K range.
Sold new and delivered to it’s CT owner in the summer of 1988. As often happened with “widow maker” the new owner wasn’t used to the turbo lag and 395 miles into his ownership he was in an accident. While the true extent of the damage is not clear given the years that have past, the insurance company paid out a total loss claim. The owner was allowed to keep the damaged car and it was placed in storage. In 1994 the car was repaired and put back on the road in NY and later VT with 10,897 miles, CT again and then SC and NJ with 12.970 miles. During this period there was no uniform state to state treatment of titles from damaged cars, so some stated issued clean titles not showing the prior history. This is clearly evident on the Carfax report. In March of 2012 the current owner purchased the car in VA with 13,010 miles.
