Porsche 911 Turbo 3.3

Coupé, 1979

Highlights

  • Talbot Yellow
  • Light Red Leather
  • Great Records

Few automobiles have shaped the modern performance car quite like the Porsche 911 Turbo. Introduced in the mid-1970s as a road-going derivative of Porsche’s turbocharged racing program, the 930 quickly earned a reputation for its explosive power delivery, unmistakable styling, and demanding yet immensely rewarding driving experience. The 1979 model year holds particular significance as the final year the 930 was officially offered in the United States before a six-year hiatus, making it one of the most sought-after examples among collectors today.

Finished in the exceedingly rare Talbot Yellow (Color Code 106), this example presents with unmistakable presence and period-correct character. While Porsche has never published official production figures by paint color, Porsche registry and marque experts estimate that fewer than ten Talbot Yellow 930 Turbos were produced, making this one of the rarest factory color combinations available on the model. The striking exterior is further enhanced by color-matched 16-inch Fuchs wheels, the signature “Tea Tray” rear spoiler, integrated front fog lights, and an electric sliding sunroof, creating a specification that is both distinctive and highly collectible.

The vehicle in detail

The cabin is equally memorable, trimmed in Light Red leather that beautifully complements the vibrant exterior. A matching Light Red leather Momo steering wheel adds a sporting touch while maintaining the car’s period aesthetic, and a Porsche Classic head unit discreetly provides modern functionality without disrupting the original character of the interior. Additional details include a perforated black headliner and distinctive rear seat backs featuring the iconic Turbo script embossed into the carpeting, reinforcing the model’s unmistakable identity.

Power comes from Porsche’s legendary turbocharged 3.3-liter flat-six engine, paired with the iconic four-speed manual transaxle and a limited-slip differential. Revered for its unmistakable boost delivery and visceral driving dynamics, the 930 Turbo remains one of the most engaging analog sports cars ever produced. The addition of a FabSpeed exhaust further enhances the unmistakable soundtrack of the turbocharged flat-six while complementing the car’s already exhilarating performance. Combined with its rear-engine balance and unfiltered steering feel, the 930 delivers the rewarding driving experience that established it as one of Porsche’s defining performance models.

Representing the final U.S.-market model year before the 930’s temporary departure from North America, this 1979 Porsche 911 Turbo combines historical significance with an exceptionally rare factory color specification. Finished in Talbot Yellow over Light Red leather and accompanied by one key, its Porsche Production Specifications, and owner’s booklets, this remarkable 930 presents an outstanding opportunity to acquire one of the most collectible and visually distinctive air-cooled Porsche Turbos ever produced.
