Description
The Porsche 930 Turbo was a car so brutally fast in the 1970s that even experienced drivers approached it with respect. The 930 Turbo made no compromises. Turbo lag, a short wheelbase, a heavy rear-mounted engine, and then suddenly an explosive surge of power the moment the turbo came alive. This was not a sports car for beginners. This was a Porsche for people who truly knew how to drive. And that is precisely why the 930 Turbo has become an absolute legend today.
This particular example is a European Porsche 930 Turbo Cabriolet from 1988, originally delivered new in Germany. Finished in Marine Blue Metallic over dark blue leather, it represents an exceptionally tasteful specification. Not loud or flashy, but rather a configuration that perfectly suits the character of a late 930 Cabriolet: fast, exclusive, and mature.
What immediately stands out about this car is how original it has remained. Approximately 95% of the paintwork is still original. That is truly exceptional for a 930 Turbo of this generation. The body therefore presents beautifully, with excellent panel fitment, correct details, and an appearance that feels entirely authentic. Altogether, this Porsche has exactly the presence you hope to find in a flagship model from Stuttgart.
But the real magic begins once the top comes down. Few cars combine mechanical sensation quite like an open 930 Turbo. The air-cooled flat-six mounted behind you produces that unmistakable raw Porsche soundtrack, while the turbo audibly builds boost in the background. That characteristic shove in the back is exactly what made the 930 world famous. It is a driving experience modern sports cars simply can no longer replicate.
The 3.3-liter turbocharged engine delivers impressive performance, but more importantly, character. The manual gearbox demands the correct gear, the steering is constantly alive in your hands, and the Porsche always feels mechanically connected to its driver. That is what makes a 930 Turbo so special. You do not drive it passively—you work together with the car.
The Cabriolet version adds yet another dimension to the experience. Especially in this dark blue specification, it creates exactly that unmistakable 1980s Porsche atmosphere: a summer evening, the top down, the sound of the turbo behind you, and that wide rear spoiler visible in the rearview mirror. These are cars that create a sense of occasion before you have even started driving.
This particular example also remains in exceptionally neat and original condition. A Porsche 911 that has clearly been cherished and possesses exactly the qualities enthusiasts are searching for today: honest, correct, and beautifully authentic.
