Vehicle Description
1982 Porsche 930 Turbo Sunroof Coupe
• VIN WP0ZZZ93ZCS000511
• 3.3-liter Turbo
• One (1) owner
One (1) owner purchased new from Porsche and imported it to Las
Vegas, Nevada in 1982. C-Program RoW (Rest of the World) Number 511
out of 938 Porsche 930's produced from August 1981 to July 1982.
Well maintained and cared for with receipts and a recent service
was just done. A complete repaint was done in 1999 in Guards Red
(color code 027). The paintwork is stunning and it is in
exceptional condition. The black interior is original and in very
nice condition including carpets, headliner, leather front seats,
dash, door pockets with all new rubbers. The Fuch alloy rims are in
great condition with new Pirelli P Zero radial tires (205/55 ZR 16
front 245/45 ZR 16 rear). The undercarriage is solid and rust-free.
This is a very honest 930 that performs exceptionally.
Over the years the engine and transmission have been serviced and
extremely well maintained. All electrical and mechanics are in
excellent working order and are ready to enjoy! Factory options
include electric sunroof, AM/FM Pioneer stereo with CD, factory
left & right sport seats, alarm system, and factory air
conditioning. Complete with books, records, and clean Carfax.
The 930's claim to fame was the astoundingly powerful 3.3-liter
flat-six Turbo engine which sends all its power to the rear wheels
through the four-speed manual transmission. The braking system has
four-wheel disc brakes with Big Red calibers that are able to stop
the car on a dime. The 930 was truly one of the best designs
Porsche ever built for the street! A piece of Porsche history that
will certainly continue to captivate not only Porsche enthusiasts,
but all onlookers with its rarity and true beauty. Do not miss this
rare opportunity!
The turbo boost comes on like a shotgun blast, which is why these
cars have such a split personality. Master it, however, and you'll
be at the helm of one of the most potent road cars ever unleashed
to the general public. Even today its performance will humble just
about everything on the road that doesn't cost $300,000. This
remarkable 930 delivers every bit of the driving experience you'd
expect. Towering power & awesome braking makes it one of the most
entertaining road cars ever devised.
Note: Not smog legal for the state of California

History 1978-1989 3.3 Liter 930 Turbo Carrera
Porsche made its first and most significant changes to the 930 for
1978, enlarging the engine to 3.3 liters and adding an air-to-air
intercooler. By cooling the pressurized air charge, the intercooler
helped increase power to 300 hp (DIN); the rear 'whale tail'
spoiler was re-profiled and raised slightly to make room for the
intercooler. Porsche also upgraded the brakes to units similar to
those used on the 917 race cars. While the increase in displacement
and addition of an intercooler increased the power output and
torque, these changes also added to the weight of the vehicle,
especially to the engine, which contributed to a substantial change
in the handling and character of the car when compared to the
earlier 3.0 liter models.
Changing emissions regulations in Japan and the U.S. forced Porsche
to withdraw the 930 from those markets in 1980. It remained,
however, available in Canada. Believing the luxurious 928 gran
turismo would eventually replace the 911 as the top of the Porsche
line, Fuhrmann cut back spending on the model, and it was not until
his resignation that the company finally committed the financing to
re-regulate the car.
The 930 remained available in Europe, and for 1983 a 330 PS (243
kW; 325 hp) performance option became available on a build-to-order
basis from Porsche. With the add-on came a four-pipe exhaust system
and an additional oil-cooler requiring a remodeled front spoiler
and units bearing the add-on often featured additional ventilation
holes in the rear fenders and modified rockers.
