After two years in production, Porsche elected to continue developing the model. For 1978, the Turbo 3.3 was announced. Featuring a larger displacement, an air-to-air intercooler, a re-profiled tea tray rear spoiler, and larger, more powerful brakes, the car rewarded enthusiasts with exceptional power and incredible performance. As such, the Turbo name quickly became synonymous with incredible speed and acceleration, albeit performance that demanded the talents of an experienced driver: this is a wickedly fast car that can easily punish those who do not approach it with skill and respect. Of course, this only added to its appeal and is still renowned for its driving dynamics today. Further, while the 930 served as the homologation basis for Porsches fearsome 934 racers, it was no stripped-down track weapon. Turbos were luxuriously equipped, with a long list of standard equipment including air-conditioning, full leather, a rear wiper, headlamp washers, and a stereo. Further options, including a power sunroof, were offered as well. In 1978, Porsche updated the model with a larger 3.3-liter engine with a stated US-market output of 253 horsepower, an air-to-air intercooler, revised suspension, and new brakes. With the US emissions restrictions tightening once again in 1980, 1979 became the last model year that the Porsche 930 was specified for the American market for some time to come. Completed in October 1979, the sensational 1979 Porsche 930 911 Turbo 3.3 Sunroof Coupe on offer belongs to the final batch of cars sent to the United States before the model was pulled from the lineup. Finished in a highly desirable and rare factory color combination of Talbot Yellow over a Light Red leather interior, this impactful combination is one of only a few Turbos so specified and the only known example from 1979. In addition, its original window sticker shows optional extras included a limited-slip differential, power sunroof, and a power right-hand mirror. This investment-grade Porsche 930 Turbo is among one of the finest examples to come to market in years. With its highly desirable color combination, impeccable condition, and low miles, this the perfect example to add to any premier collection. I personally believe the investment potential of this highly sought-after iconic model will grow beyond your imagination. Offered to the most demanding collector, investor, or enthusiastswho desires to own the very best at an investment price!
