1976 Porsche 911 Turbo Carrera

Published December 24, 2014 by Rob

We talk a bit about 911 reliability around here and it is a well known trademark of the engines in these cars. But how about a 930 with over 200,000 miles on it? Given the much higher stress these blown engines tend to undergo a car like this one is truly a testament to the capabilities of these fantastic performance machines. This particular 930 has another treat to go with it. With some regularity we come across older Porsches with dubious claims about being a “one-owner” car, but this one here appears to be the real deal! One owner and one place of service for its entire 38 year and 200K mile existence, surely a rare thing to come across. Even better, this 1976 Porsche 911 Turbo Carrera, located in California, recently has come out of restoration and sits looking absolutely fantastic!

1997 Porsche 911 Turbo

Published December 23, 2014 by Rob

There’s a lot going on with the 993 Turbo. The first 911 Turbo that came standard with all-wheel drive, the first twin-turbocharged 911 Turbo, the first to come standard with a 6-speed manual transmission, the first of the production turbos to produce more than 400 hp. And the last air-cooled 911 Turbo. When you combine all of these things with the extremely sexy design of the 993 itself, then it is no wonder that the market for them never really fell off and like the rest of the air-cooled line values now continue to climb. There is still a part of me that wonders how the value of these will play out relative to the various iterations of the 964 Turbo (perhaps excepting the 3.6 Turbos S, whose rarity will always win out), but that will be something played out over quite a few more years. Here we have a 993 aiming for near top-market value: an Arena Red Metallic 1997 Porsche 911 Turbo, located in Washington, with 30,265 miles on it.

1984 Porsche 911 Carrera Targa

Published December 22, 2014 by Rob

I don’t tend to post a lot of modified 911s, in part because usually we come across plenty of interesting and original examples to showcase, but mostly because they can be notoriously difficult to evaluate from afar (and some are downright terrible). Those that I do feature tend to fall into the realm of the restomod, but from time to time I come across something that piques my interest too much to pass by. Here we have a 1984 Porsche 911 Carrera Targa that had fallen into a somewhat poor state, but has now been restored and rebuilt though without concern for returning the car entirely to its original condition. The drivetrain remains more or less how it came from the factory, but the aesthetics have been changed quite a bit, and overall it looks very good. Typically, restorations like this focus on the long-hood design, but it’s interesting to see how a similar ethos can be carried over and applied to a 3.2 Carrera all the while retaining much of the original look.

1994 Porsche 968 Club Sport

At the 1992 Paris Motor Show, Porsche would introduce one of the last evolutions of their venerable front-engined, four-cylinder model that traced its roots back to the 924 of the late 1970s: the 968 Club Sport. This was a lightweight special of the 968 that had a few amenities deleted such as AC, sunroof, rear seats along with a good amount of soundproofing. Around 50 kilograms (~ 110 pounds) was saved, which resulted in a modest increase in acceleration to 100 mph of a half second. However, for those track day enthusiasts out there, this was certainly a more suitable platform to begin with than a bog standard 968. This 968CS for sale at 4Star Classics in the UK is one of a handful of RHD models, made even more unique as it is painted in a special order Amaranth Violet.
