The Porsche 911 Turbo remains the most iconic of the 911 series production cars. The first year of production was 1975 in Europe and it was initially offered with a 3 litre flat six was coupled to a bulletproof 4 speed and rated at 250 horsepower. Making its way to US shores for the first time was in 1976. For 1977 the Turbo Carrera remained basically unchanged only increasing the wheel diameter from 15? to 16?. In 1978, Porsche raised the displacement to 3.3 litres and added an innercooler thus increasing the horsepower to 300 in full European trim.
This two owner 1977 Porsche 930 was a sold new in Canada. According to the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, it was delivered from the factory in Sienna Metallic (Burgundy) with Cork trimmed interior. Other factory options include factory sunroof, right hand mirror and dealer installed Blaupunkt Bamberg stereo cassette radio recorder. This 930 has had two previous owners and somewhere down the line it was repainted red. Last year the original engine was removed and completely overhauled to factory 1977 specs. This 911 Turbo runs of strong and will make a great daily driver or weekend cruiser. Today, the 1976 and 1977 911 Turbos are much sought after by purists due to their original looks with the original Whale Tale design, however to some collectors, the 1977 is more desirable, in particular because of the 16? Fuchs wheels. He is a 1977, you decide!
