This 1988 Porsche 911 Turbo cabriolet is a factory M505 slant nose example that shows 3,600 miles following the late owner’s purchase in 2021. The car is powered by a turbocharged 3.3-liter flat-six paired with a four-speed manual transaxle and is finished in Guards Red over black leather upholstery. Equipment includes 16″ Fuchs alloy wheels, a limited-slip differential, four-wheel cross-drilled and ventilated disc brakes, a power-operated black soft top, power-adjustable seats, a Blaupunkt cassette stereo, and air conditioning. This M505 930 Turbo cabriolet is offered by the seller on behalf of the late owner’s estate with manufacturer’s literature, a clean Carfax report, and a clean California title.
The car is finished in Guards Red and is equipped with factory flachbau bodywork (M505), a package that featured pop-up headlights, vented front fenders, side strakes, and extended side sills. Additional equipment includes a power-operated black convertible soft top, a convertible top boot cover, headlight washers, fog lights, and dual exhaust outlets. There are blemishes on the soft top edges, and close-up photographs of the exterior finish and trim are shown in the gallery below.
Staggered-width 16″ Fuchs alloy wheels feature body-color centers and are mounted with Pirelli P Zero tires. Braking is handled by four-wheel cross-drilled and ventilated discs.
The power-adjustable front seats are upholstered in black leather and are complemented by a color-coordinated center console, door panels, and carpeting. Amenities include air conditioning, a Blaupunkt cassette stereo, Porsche-branded floor mats, an analog clock, and power windows.
The four-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel frames VDO instrumentation including a central tachometer with a 6,700-rpm redline as well as a 170-mph speedometer and gauges for oil pressure, oil temperature, oil level, fuel level, and boost pressure. The six-digit odometer shows 3,600 miles, approximately 100 of which were added under current ownership.
The turbocharged 3.3-liter flat-six was factory-rated at 282 horsepower and 278 lb-ft of torque.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transaxle and a limited-slip differential.
