Finished from the factory in Silver Metallic, the car underwent rust repair around the right door prior to fitment of a replacement front fender and a repaint in 1982. A sunroof was installed by American Sunroof Company, and further exterior details include fog lights, a replacement windshield, a left mirror, a retractable antenna, and rear bumperettes. Chips in the paint are visible on the front end, and the bright window trim shows wear.

Finished from the factory in Silver Metallic, the car underwent rust repair around the right door prior to fitment of a replacement front fender and a repaint in 1982. A sunroof was installed by American Sunroof Company, and further exterior details include fog lights, a replacement windshield, a left mirror, a retractable antenna, and rear bumperettes. Chips in the paint are visible on the front end, and the bright window trim shows wear.
Silver 15” cookie-cutter alloy wheels are mounted with Yokohama ES 100 tires measuring 205/60 up front and 215/60 out back, while a matching wheel with an older tire is stored in the front trunk compartment. The front suspension was overhauled in 2004, and Bilstein dampers, a front strut tower brace, and turbo-style tie rod ends were installed at that time. Stopping power is provided by Porsche-branded calipers over four-wheel ventilated discs reportedly sourced from a Porsche Boxster. The rear tires rub the fenders.
The 2+2 cabin features front sport seats trimmed in black leather and accompanied by color-coordinated rear seats, door panels and carpets. Additional appointments include a Wevo shifter, a cabin heater, three-speed windshield wipers, pop-out rear quarter windows, and an Alpine AM/FM cassette stereo. The black dashboard was refreshed in 2004.
The leatherette-wrapped steering wheel fronts VDO instrumentation consisting of a central tachometer, a 150-mph speedometer, a clock, and combination gauges. The five-digit odometer shows 31k miles, and total mileage is unknown.
The air-cooled flat-six was modified to displace 2.9-liters in October 2004 by The Stable of San Francisco, California. Equipment reportedly includes 9.5:1 pistons, 46mm PMO carburetors, 930-sourced exhaust valves, SSI heat exchangers, and a 2.7L RS-sourced ignition distributor with Pertronix points. The factory air conditioning system has been removed, and an Optima Redtop battery has been installed. A dynamometer test reportedly performed in 2004 registered 274 horsepower and 247 lb-ft of torque.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transaxle that was rebuilt in 2004. A 915-sourced sport clutch was also installed at that time. A Dansk sport muffler has been fitted, and additional underside images are presented in the gallery.
The window sticker shows delivery to Commonwealth Porsche and Audi via VW N/E Distribution, and lists optional equipment as well as a total price of $9,439.50.
