1978 Porsche 930 Turbo Coupe 2-Door 3.3L

Description for Porsche 930 1978

The Porsche 911 Turbo known internally as the 930 was the first totally successful and ultimately the most enduring application of turbocharging to a road-going automobile. The ingenious and always methodical engineers at Porsche had learned about turbocharging through their development of the 917/10 and 917/30 racing cars that dominated the Can-Am series during 1972 and 1973. They then set about applying what they had gleaned from racing to the 911 road car. After a $2 million development cost the production version of the 930 debuted at the Paris Motor Show in 1974. The 3-liter engine made 260 horsepower and visually the Turbo could be distinguished by the "whale tail" rear spoiler wider wheels and flared wheel arches. Export of the car to the United States didn't start until 1976 but when it did the 930 became one of the most desirable cars on the road. Now fondly remembered and recognized as one of the most important road-going Porsches of all it is highly collectible.

I really want someone that will enjoy driving this awesome car. It is a shame to let such a fine automobile not be driven. This car is the perfect addition to a collector or classic Porsche LOVER!!!

Thank you.
