Porsche is the company that truly cemented the word “Turbo” into the world’s automotive lexicon. The Type 930, which was unveiled as a concept in 1973 and was put into production in 1975, was a brilliant meld of forced induction and the famed automaker’s light and efficient air-cooled engine technology. With their outrageous flared fenders, widened tires and wheels, and iconic “whale tail,” Porsche’s 911 Turbo quickly became the object of almost every sports car enthusiast’s desire.
Beginning in the early 1970s, Porsche had demonstrated the worth of an exhaust-driven turbine for developing tremendous power for a given engine displacement, astounding the racing community with its World Endurance Championship-winning 917s. The company was quick to adapt turbocharging to its Group 4 Type 934 and Group 5 Type 935 racing coupes, basing those ferocious machines on the street-driven Type 930. Throughout the later 1970s and into the 1980s, the 930 evolved into an ever-more sophisticated, luxurious, and powerful road car.
By 1987, the Turbo boasted a 3.3-liter engine, which was connected to a smooth four-speed manual transaxle and could produce 282 horsepower at 5,000 rpm and 289 foot-pounds of torque at 4,000 rpm, The ventilated brake rotors were drilled for increased efficiency, and a large intercooler was housed within the “Tea-tray” rear spoiler. The 1987 930 Turbo, of which 1,695 were built for the U.S. market and another 786 for the “Rest of the World” (RoW), was capable of a near-160 mph top speed.
This stunning Guards Red (027) Turbo Coupe, with a sunroof and barely 11,000 miles from new, appears as pristine as the day it left the factory in December 1986. It was delivered new to Jack Daniels Motors in Fair Lawn, New Jersey, and then went to Auto Leasing by Elite Inc., of Closter, New Jersey. Its warranty book is dated April 3, 1987. The Champagne leather interior presents as-new, with factory-installed clear protective plastic still protecting the carpeting from being soiled and worn.
This car is fitted with a limited slip differential, a power sunroof, factory air conditioning, a center console, electric windows, eight-way power seats, a leather steering wheel with a raised hub, a high-end Blaupunkt stereo entertainment system, left- and right-hand electrically adjustable and heated outside mirrors, a rear window wiper, and fog lamps, as well as competition valve stem supports, wheel security locks, and anodized Fuchs forged “Windmill” alloy wheels, which are seven inches wide in the front, nine inches wide in the rear, and are all fitted with Michelin Pilot Sport Plus tires.
It is supplied with a set of factory-accessory floor mats, a complete and original tool kit, and an air compressor for its collapsible spare tire and wheel. The car includes its original and correct manuals, warranty book, and keys, and it even comes with a touch-up paint stick.
This 911 Turbo Coupe, shows fewer than 12,000 original miles, meaning that it has been barely broken in. It would be a perfect addition to any collection of fine high-performance sports cars, and after the replacement of some of its consumable items, it would be very suitable for club events or weekend enjoyment.
