The Porsche 930, known to many as the original 911 Turbo, burst onto the scene in 1975, immediately establishing itself as a supercar for the road. Born from Porsche's racing endeavors and a desire to homologate turbocharged engines, it was a beast of a machine, famous for its dramatic "whale tail" spoiler and exhilarating, if sometimes challenging, power delivery. By the late 1980s, the 930 had evolved, culminating in the 1989 model year, which stands as a pinnacle for many collectors. This final iteration of the original 930 was unique, being the only year to feature the G50 5-speed manual transmission, a significant upgrade over the earlier 4-speed, offering improved drivability and a more engaging experience. Even more exclusive was the factory Flachbau, or "Slantnose," option, a bespoke offering that transformed the iconic round headlight design into a sleek, 935-inspired front end. This costly option, adding nearly $30,000 to the sticker price, was a true testament to exclusivity, with only 60 coupes produced for the 1989 model year. This particular 1989 930S Flachbau is a stunning example of that rarity, showing a mere 31,800 miles on the odometer. It presents in superb condition, having recently undergone an extensive motor rebuild and mechanical service in February 2025, ensuring it runs as magnificently as it looks. Further enhancing its pedigree, this Slantnose has completed the rigorous Porsche Classic certification program, a testament to its authenticity and meticulous care. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a true icon from the final, most refined year of the legendary 930 Turbo.
