Das Fahrzeug im Detail

When the Porsche 911 Turbo Carrera was introduced in 1974—with production beginning in 1975, followed by US deliveries in 1976—it represented something new from the German automaker: Its first true production supercar. Although it was immediately identifiable as a 911, the Type 930, as it was internally designated, featured a 3.0-liter flat-six boasting a single KKK turbocharger with K-Jetronic fuel injection. Output was, at 245 horsepower for US-market cars (260 horsepower elsewhere), immense; weighing less than 2,700 pounds, the 930 could sprint to 60 mph in just over five seconds and easily top 150 mph.
Although the 930 served as the homologation basis for Porsche’s fearsome 934 racer, it was no stripped-down track weapon. Turbos were luxuriously equipped, with a long list of standard equipment, including air conditioning, full leather, rear wiper, headlamp washers, and a stereo. Further options, including a power sunroof, were offered as well.

In 1978, Porsche updated the model with a larger 3.3-liter engine, an air-to-air intercooler, revised suspension, and new brakes. With the US emissions restrictions tightening once again in 1980, 1979 became the last model year that the Porsche 930 was specified for the American market for some time to come.
Completed in October 1979, the example on offer belongs to the final batch of cars sent to the United States before the model was pulled from the lineup. Finished in a highly desirable and rare color combination, this example rolled out of the factory finished in Talbot Yellow over a Light Red leather interior. This impactful combination is perhaps one of only a few such Turbos to leave the factory gates. In addition, the window sticker on file shows a limited-slip differential, electric sunroof, and a power right-hand mirror were selected as options.
This Porsche additionally benefits from a wide-ranging collection of paperwork from past registrations, titles, import paperwork, a window sticker, and a bill of sale. Delivered new to Precision Imports of Tulsa, Oklahoma, the Porsche would subsequently live in California and later Canada throughout the decades. A collection of service invoices additionally documents the work performed on the car dating back to the late 1980s. In the spring of 2024, the car was cosmetically reconditioned and received a full glass-out respray using OEM components sourced from the local Porsche dealer which included seals, gaskets, and stickers. This 911 Turbo is further accompanied by an owner’s manual, warranty booklet.
This final-year example of the original run of the Type 930 Turbo possesses all the qualities certifying its status as a highly collectable Porsche; these are only bolstered by its striking and rare Talbot Yellow exterior. This 1970s performance icon will be a welcome addition to any collection.
