i have a bunch of stories looking at these (flying all over the country). I'm at the point just hanging on to my 79 and hope a 3.0 majically falls into my lap for a decent price. BTW on a related topic, BJ sold this week a 87 46k mile white/red georgeous 930 for $38.5 (incl buyer premium). i thought that was very low for that car.
Actually I do have a 3.0 in the garage. i picked it up about 25 years ago at a garage sale for $1. It is a 77 #123. Image Unavailable, Please Login
I think if you keep looking something will come up that ticks all the right boxes as there will still be deals on good 3.0 cars for a while. That picture is changing though. Here is one that sold in Ontario not too long ago for circa $30k.. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Awesome! Speaking of Turbo Carrera art, here is one more of the Paris photo-shoot... Image Unavailable, Please Login

It might be. If it mentioned anything about being located in Massachusetts, then its the same car. Under most circumstances it wouldn't be my first choice of colors, but it does work nicely on that car.
Very cool color combination, the light green with black & tartan seat inserts. But my favorite is still the oak green.
That was Ferry Porsche's choice too Hellgelb (yellow) is quite rare Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
I think this is the same color but under studio lights (& polished fuchs) it looks quite different! Pic by Ron Kimball Image Unavailable, Please Login
That looks like a 1979 3.3 ltr car. Here are a number of 3.0 cars on screen. In order: Raise the Titanic (Silver car) The Professionals (TV show, 1975 silver car) The Fall Guy (Green car) Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Look at the trim fade difference in an original car sold by Ooley & Blackburn (who incidentally own one of the USA prototypes). Unusual color, and P7s still in evidence. Image Unavailable, Please Login

It could be the same color, but its a color that varies a lot with lighting. In post #205 the 1st photo under the rear spoiler the color looks closer Ron Kimball's photo, but in the last photo in direct sunlight the color appears more red. Very cool car, but I prefer the standard black Fuchs rather than polished.
Indeed. Gold is rare too. Imagine being passed with a woosh on the autobahn in 1975 by this factory test-car and thinking: "what was that!?" Image Unavailable, Please Login
Rare images of what the prototypes interior & engine bay looked like. You will notice the unique seats and door panels with normal trim, both of which have been changed over time. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
