Much of the Porsche 911 Turbo Carreras development had resulted
from the factory's racing program. The rules for FIA Group 4
homologation required 400 road cars to be built, which spurred the
development of 'Project 930' - the legendary 911/930 Turbo. The
turbocharged 3.0 liter engine in road trim developed 260bhp with
propelled the Turbo Carrera from and standstill to 100 mph in 14
seconds and resulted in a top speed of 155mph. Porsches first road
going super car, this meant it was on par or faster that its
contemporary's in the day, the Aston Martins V8 Vantage, Ferraris
512 Berlinetta Boxer and Lamborghinis Countach, certainly excellent
company. Legendary racing driver Paul Frere stated "It offers the
finest blend of ultimate performance and refinement I have ever
come across.
This is the first year of the Porsche Turbo in the USA. Restored by
marque experts at Jakobs Porsche in North Vancouver, British
Columbia from an original low mileage example, this example has
been meticulously restored in its factory-correct and original
color combination and a cost of over CA$150,000, bringing this rare
Turbo Carrera to the highest possible standards.
Combining the unmistakable looks of a classic Turbo Carrera, this
911 Turbo Carrera is superb in every respect. As the first Porsche
road going super car, it offers the collectability and investment
potential that goes hand in hand with its low production figures.
This extraordinary Turbo Carrera will not disappoint in any
way.
