Vehicle history:
This 930 Turbo is in exceptionally good condition. The rare special color Sienna Metallic and the sought-after 3. 0-liter variant make this turbo a very interesting overall package. Porsche was planning a lightweight 911 for Group 4 of the World Sports Car Championship, which came into force in 1976. This racing car was to receive the turbocharged six-cylinder boxer engine from the Porsche 911 Carrera RS 3. 0. Short-term changes to the FIA's regulations, in which the minimum vehicle weight was increased, reduced the future racing car's chances of winning. Therefore, Porsche stopped the further development of the vehicle. Porsche used the experience gained from developing racing cars in the manufacture of turbo engines to design a sports car that rivaled the competition from Ferrari and Lamborghini. Because of its many extensive changes compared to the standard 911s, especially with the engine, the car was given an independent type number with the 930. To reduce the lift on the front and rear axles and to increase the driving stability at higher speeds, the car was given a front and rear spoiler. The large and flat rear spoiler resembled a whale's tail and became the main distinguishing feature of this iconic sports car.
