The Porsche 930 is a legend to enthusiasts all over the world, impressed by its incredible power and stunning looks. This Classic automobile was Porsche’s top-of-the-line model throughout its intermittent production from 1975-1989. Known to every car enthusiast simply as the Turbo, the 930 was always among the fastest sports car money could buy.
Porsche experts agree: the 930 in its final version (1986-’89) was the best Turbo ever built as it struck the perfect balance between old school and jet age. It was the first to incorporate technological advancements which dramatically increased horsepower and improved road handling. It was the last to feature the "classic" body style; free of complex emissions equipment, stability control, and other electronic systems that limit the driver's input.
A mere 1,605 U.S. spec Turbos were built in 1987; few of these monster Porsches have survived, even fewer are in pristine condition. Here's one!
In January 1987, VIN *WP0JB0932HS050782* left the gates of Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen, West Germany and sold new at Hoehn Motors in San Diego, CA.
Living a sheltered life among a private Porsche collection owned by a prominent businessman in Monterey, the car has never left the Golden State.
Hence, a unique opportunity arises to obtain a coveted Turbo, one that enjoyed a most beneficial climate, pampered beyond belief by a mature owner with big pockets and the willingness to pay up for the best service money can buy.
Let's check out this dream find now, inside and out!
We start our inspection with the trunk, since this area can deliver valuable clues about a Porsche's true condition.
Complete tool roll and original tire inflation compressor kit are still present. Extra treats seen here are a 6-disc CD changer and tool box.
Below the perfect gray felt mat, everything looks pristinely original.
The naked trunk reveals the naked truth. From the untouched VREDESTEIN Space Master spare to the corrosion free battery area; everything is as virginal as it gets.
Concours ready, literally.
And yes, the Guards Red (factory code G1G1) paint is 100% original!
To call the paint "well preserved" would be a gross understatement; the truly marvelous finish has retained its magical luster over the years and still appears stunningly beautiful today.
This Turbo has never suffered any damage; there are virtually no door dings or rock chips to report.
Hood and door gaps are in perfect alignment; confirming the Turbo's pampered existence for the past 27 years.
A very desirable option: the electric sunroof.
Let the sunshine in!
Other Turbo options include power brakes, power/heated mirrors, power windows, headlight washer jets, and rear window wiper.
The lowered stance, deep front valance and large rear spoiler are no visual gimmicks, mind you.
With acceleration from zero to sixty in the sub 5-second range and a top speed of nearly 180mph, aerodynamics are a vital part of survival.
So are the brakes, by the way, hugely sized multi-caliper units grabbing drilled discs, derived straight from the famous Porsche 917 Can-Am race car.
Larger 17” replica FUCHS forged alloy wheels are a dramatic improvement in both looks and performance on the Turbo…
…especially when fitted with fresh Bridgestone Potenza RE11 255/40R17s, out back and 225/45R17s in front.
While we’re down on one knee, let’s have a look underneath. More important than shiny paint is a healthy undercarriage.
This original chassis presents itself free of any kind of damage or corrosion. What looks like a brownish layer of dust or baked-on road dirt here and there is actually the original Cosmoline coating, a waxy corrosion inhibitor liberally applied with a spray gun to the undercarriage after final assembly at the factory, for the sake of protection.
Area below trunk, including the front suspension pan, looks marvelous as well. It's damage free, clean as a whistle, with all factory finishes preserved in reference quality. Again, there's no rust, no flaking, no damage, just the all-original finishes.
Cosmoline certainly lived up to its promise on this fine survivor!
Frog's eye view. Notice stainless steel exhaust system. Engine's bottom end, dry and clean.
Not a single oil leak to note.
Most importantly, there is absolutely NO evidence of rust, or any other mishap that would cause the enthusiast sleepless nights.
Peeking inside this Turbo, luxury is abundant. This Carrera comes with the full leather interior that exudes a fantastic aroma; let's investigate!
The inviting, Factory Optioned, 6-way power Sport Seats with height adjustment were special order and will easily accommodate a 6'6"-tall NBA player. Italian cow hides grace virtually every surface inside: dash, front and rear seats, door panels, and side panels; all this is complemented by deep velour carpeting and plush mats exclusive to the Turbo.
Books, manuals, and documents found inside the red vinyl pouch include the owner's manual, maintenance book, dealer directory, accessories brochure and radio instruction manual.
There are also spare keys.
Fully optioned with ice cold A/C, power disc brakes, heated mirrors, power windows; and everything works perfectly, of course.
The iconic 911 cockpit featuring five large, circular, white-on-black dials with bright orange pointers are a timeless design. You can't improve upon perfection!
The 034,408 miles shown on the 6-digit odometer are original!
The condition of this leather interior is consistent only with a cherished, low-mileage car that's been garaged all its life.
Factory-prescribed, large whale tail rear spoiler feeds huge air-to-air intercooler with all the fresh oxygen it needs.
How about a quick peek under the deck lid?
Inside the toothbrush-clean engine bay, lives Porsche's fabled 3.3-liter turbo power plant, developing 287 Teutonic horses @5,500 rpm.
Even the factory decals are still in place.
Please, note that this matching numbers engine is completely stock and unmodified; even the emissions equipment is still present and fully operational. This turbo runs super strong and displays no ill manners whatsoever--like smoking, oil piddling, or drinking.
Recently turned, cleaned and serviced, all fluids were changed. Dry as a bone and clean as a whistle. Drivability:
The car runs, drives, handles, and stops flawlessly. Docile around town but above 4,500rpm, it sounds like a STIHL on steroids and it runs like a crazed ape!
Driving this collectible, exotic Porsche truly is an unforgettable, uniquely pleasurable experience. Its low mileage--the car has covered less than 1,300 miles annually, on average--certainly provides an extra dimension of satisfaction: there are no squeaks or rattles; this 930 feels as solid as a rock!
Here's your chance to acquire one of the last, all-original, Porsche 930 turbo supercars. This Porsche will deliver everything its aggressive exterior promises: extreme driving pleasures, undiminished prestige, and unlimited appreciation potential.
A scant 1,600 U.S. Turbos were made in '87; almost three decades later, not many low-mileage, rust free examples are left to choose from. As always, the best of the best are destined to appreciate steadily.

VW may move production because of Russia's cutoff of natural gas
Sun, Sep 25 2022Volkswagen AG is exploring ways to counter a shortage in natural gas, including shifting production around its network of global facilities, signaling how the energy crisis unleashed by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine threatens to upend EuropeÂ’s industrial landscape. Volkswagen, EuropeÂ’s biggest carmaker, said Thursday that reallocating some of its production was one of the options available in the medium term if gas shortages last much beyond this winter. The company has major factories in Germany, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, which are among European countries most reliant on Russian gas, as well as facilities in southern Europe that source energy from elsewhere. “As mid-term alternatives, we are focusing on greater localization, relocation of manufacturing capacity, or technical alternatives, similar to what is already common practice in the context of challenges related to semiconductor shortages and other recent supply chain disruptions,” Geng Wu, VolkswagenÂ’s head of purchasing, said in a statement. RussiaÂ’s decision to throttle gas supplies to Europe has raised concerns that Germany might be forced to ration its fuel. Recent news that gas storage levels hit 90% ahead of schedule has soothed fears of acute shortages this winter, but Germany faces a challenge in replenishing depleted reserves next summer without contributions from Russia. Southwestern Europe or coastal zones of northern Europe, both of which have better access to seaborne liquefied natural gas cargoes, could be the beneficiaries of any production shift, a Volkswagen spokesman said by phone. The Volkswagen group already operates car factories in Portugal, Spain and Belgium, countries that host LNG terminals. Labor hurdles To be sure, any major production shift away from EuropeÂ’s biggest economy would face significant hurdles. VW has some 295,000 employees in Germany and worker representatives account for around half the companyÂ’s 20-member supervisory board. Any shift in production would likely involve a limited number of vehicles rather than wholesale factory shutdowns. While gas supplies for VWÂ’s plants are currently secured, the company has identified potential savings at its European sites to cut gas consumption by a “mid-double-digit percentage,” said Michael Heinemann, managing director of VWÂ’s power-plant unit. Still, the carmaker said it was concerned about the effect high gas prices could have on its suppliers.
Pininfarina teases its Tesla- and Bugatti-baiting EV supercar
Tue, Jul 10 2018Pininfarina isn't being bashful when it comes to getting into the car business. The Italian design house has revealed a sketch of the PF0 Concept, an electric supercar aimed directly at the world's fastest and most expensive vehicles. With upward of 1,000 horsepower, along with an expected price in the millions of dollars, this extreme EV is meant as a calling card for Pininfarina's upcoming range of electric cars and SUVs. So should the likes of Tesla, Porsche, Ferrari, Bugatti and Lamborghini be worried? Pininfarina might be new to building its own cars, but the company has many decades of experience designing and engineering some of the most desirable cars of all time — including many of the finest supercars to have worn a Ferrari badge on their nose. As we reported earlier this year, Pininfarina has teamed with Indian auto manufacturer, Mahindra, to develop a range of high-end EVs. With this roughly $500 million investment, not to mention some engineering help from Croatian supercar manufacturer, Rimac, Pininfarina aims to start high. The company will first introduce a hypercar, based on the PF0 Concept, within two years, then bring along a range of more affordable electric cars and SUVs. These will more directly take on the likes of Porsche Cayenne, Lamborghini Urus, and Tesla Model X. So yes, if you're in the business of building expensive cars, especially ones with a lot of batteries positioned inside them, Pininfarina's plans for the PF0 (that's a zero, not the letter "O," by the way) should make you sit up and take notice. "Automobili Pininfarina is a pioneering new business created to service the most discerning clients in the world," said Michael Perschke, CEO for Automobili Pininfarina. "Our product portfolio will launch with an innovative, zero-emissions hypercar that represents the progression we aim to make at the pinnacle of the luxury and sports car market." According to its press release, Pininfarina is currently presenting its "business and product plans to prospective retailer partners, clients and media in New York this week." After its tour of the Big Apple, look for Pininfarina to officially reveal the PF0 Concept during Monterey Car Week in August.

Stock Miata beats bunch of high-powered cars in wet 1/4-mile drag race
Thu, 06 Jun 2013When is a stock, 167-horsepower Mazda MX-5 Miata quicker than a Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang, Lamborghini Gallardo, Lotus Elise and a Porsche 911? When it's raining. Sort of.
Mazda Canada arranged a unique drag race to show off the fact that the Miata's optional power retractable folding hardtop can go from top-down to top-up in just 12 seconds flat. In this video, all six cars line up for a drag race, and it starts to rain (well, sort of - but you'll have to watch the video all the way to the end to see what we mean). The green flag is waved, and the timer starts as soon as the convertibles begin to put their tops up. But because the Miata's roof mechanism gets the car's roof back up a full 5.1 seconds quicker than the second-place car, the Mazda gets a serious advantage off the line for the actual drag race.
It's a fun video. And while we've spoiled the results (come on, the video was uploaded by Mazda, you knew the Miata was going to win), be sure to see how it all unfolds, below.
