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.

Muffler Man gets racing suit to mark progress on Porsche Experience Center

Sat, 19 Oct 2013

In a dramatic change of careers, a fiberglass Muffler Man statue on the side of a busy Los Angeles freeway, formerly known as "Golf Guy," traded in his clubs for a Porsche driver's suit a couple days ago. It's no coincidence, as he's standing on land that the German automaker bought from the Dominguez Hills Golf Course a couple years ago to build its west coast Porsche Experience Center - which will be complete with a test track, restoration and maintenance facilities, a cafe and restaurant, a home for Porsche Motorsports North America and more, when it's finished in the fourth quarter of 2014.
The Porsche Muffler Man will serve as the gatekeeper to the 53-acre center and overlook the test track on the side of the 405 freeway. We can't think of a better job for a fiberglass giant that used to watch golf all day than to watch Porsche road cars and racecars getting wrung out on a test track in the middle of LA. Since Muffler Men are quite adaptable, we're sure this one will fit into his new role in no time - just as easily as he can double as Paul Bunyan.
Check out the press release below for more information on the Muffler Man and the experience center, which could be the ultimate adult playground when it's finished.

Consumer Reports selling its road-tested roadsters [w/video]

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

Here's a chance to acquire a celebrity-owned vehicles, and this time at a discount instead of a premium. So the celebrity in this case is Consumer Reports, that magazine that could be equally adored and abhored by car enthusiasts. CR buys all of its test vehicles and usually finds willing second owners within its own ranks, but its opening its small used-car lot to the public. On the forecourt are four roadsters: an automatic 2012 Audi TT 2.0 TFSI Quattro S-Tronic with 6,600 miles for $36,500, a manual 2012 BMW Z4 sDrive28i with 8,400 miles for $45,000, a manual 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK250 for $39,500 and a manual 2013 Porsche Boxster with 7,000 miles for $48,000.
Those numbers mean a savings of $9,000 to $10,000 before haggling - each car is listed with an "Asking price" so there could be some wiggle room if you show up with pockets full of dough and eyes full of serious intent. Since the money CR earns from the sales go back into the magazine's budget to buy more test cars, however, it probably won't take any oddball trades, so you can forget about getting any purchasing help from that track-day AMC Javelin project on blocks in the back yard.
The vehicles have been taken care of and spiffed up for sale; buyers will take delivery at the CR test track in East Haddam, Connecticut and get a tour of the facilities. While you're there they'll even take you on a lap around the track so you can feel how your car handles when driven by one of its testers. They will probably not help you with advice on which toaster and dehumidifier to buy - you'll still need to get a subscription for that. Have a look at the video below to see a day in the life of a CR test car.

Porsche unlocks secrets of its mid-engine 911

Fri, 23 May 2014

Porsche is beginning to realize that it's sitting on a goldmine of automotive history with its secret vault full of rare cars. Autoblog toured it a few months ago, and we were amazed at all of the curiosities hidden inside. Now, it's starting to let more folks in thanks to a new series of YouTube videos. The first covered the 965 prototype that shoved a water-cooled, Audi V8 into one of its cars. Next up, a mid-engine 911 that acted as the powertrain test mule for the Boxster.
The Porsche 911 is inextricably linked to its rear-engine layout. They go together like peanut butter and jelly. However, at the time Porsche was developing the Boxster, the company didn't want to lay all of its cards out of the table during testing. As opposed to using camouflage, it put a whole different car on top. The prototype looked just like any other 911 Targa of the day, but the biggest giveaway that something was amiss was the heavily tinted rear window. By obscuring it, inquisitive journalists couldn't peak at the new engine that replaced the backseat.
It might not look like anything too important on the outside, but this is a major piece of Porsche Boxster history underneath. Scroll down to watch the video about this fascinating prototype.
