The Porsche 930 Turbo, produced from 1975 to 1989, was a high-performance variant of the iconic 911 sports car. It defined a new era for Porsche, solidifying its reputation for building powerful and luxurious automobiles. The 930 Turbo was the first production Porsche to feature a turbocharged engine, a feat achieved with the help of the pioneering KKK (Kienle, Voll & Steiner) turbocharger. This innovation resulted in a significant power bump, taking the 911 from a respectable sports car to a true performance behemoth. The 930 Turbo boasted an impressive, for its time, 3.3-liter flat-six engine, producing a staggering 260 hp in its earlier iterations and later boosted to a formidable 300 hp in the 1980 model year. This power increase was accompanied by a distinctive wide body, featuring flared wheel arches to accommodate the wider tires required to handle the increased power. The 930 Turbo was a technological marvel, featuring features like a sophisticated Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection system and a five-speed manual transmission. The combination of raw power, luxurious appointments, and advanced technology made the 930 Turbo a highly sought-after and coveted vehicle, marking the beginning of Porsche's legacy in the world of turbocharged performance cars.

The 1976-1984 model years of the 930 Turbo, particularly the 1980 model year, were particularly significant. This era represented a refinement of the original concept, with a major power upgrade and numerous design improvements. The iconic 'whale tail' rear spoiler, a defining feature of the 930 Turbo, further enhanced its aerodynamic stability and became synonymous with the model's aggressive styling. The 930 Turbo's performance was not just about numbers, its handling prowess and legendary "Porsche feeling" were equally remarkable. The 930 Turbo's reputation for being a challenging but rewarding car to drive cemented its status as a cult classic. Today, the 930 Turbo is a highly collectible car, sought after by enthusiasts and collectors alike for its historical significance, unique design, and exhilarating performance. The 930 Turbo's legacy continues to inspire car manufacturers and enthusiasts to this day, serving as a reminder of Porsche's commitment to pushing the boundaries of performance and engineering.
