Porsche’s first take at a turbocharged 911 variant came to the market in 1975 by way of the 930. Producing a groundbreaking 260 hp, it was equipped with a single KKK turbocharger, using technology that was previously exclusive to the company’s racing departments. With a distinctive wide-body design, featuring a prominent rear spoiler and pronounced wheel arches housing its wide rear wheels, the 930 soon became an icon of its day in both style and performance. Deliveries in the US began in 1976 and continued through the 1979 model year, until the implementation of harsher emissions regulations in 1980, which halted import until 1986.
