Description
If you purchase a vehicle in a different country to your own, it may be subject to local duties, sales taxes, or environmental levies when imported.

KEY FACTS This Porsche 930 Turbo is a captivating classic supercar, which has been modified with an extensive Powerhaus Performance Package. Its engine is a 3.3-litre turbocharged flat-six, reportedly producing significantly more power than standard thanks to the Powerhaus upgrade, driving the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES This 930 Turbo benefits from a desirable Powerhaus Performance Package, including a K27 turbocharger, Powerhaus intercooler and ignition, and lowered racing suspension. Additional modifications include an SC camshaft, Dial A Boost 1.0-bar system, racing clutch, and stainless-steel headers and muffler. It is finished in white over a brown leather interior. It rides on 8.5x17-inch and 10x17-inch Azev wheels, fitted with Dunlop SP Sport 8000 P tyres measuring 245/40/ZR at the front and 315/45/ZR at the rear. Equipment includes a rear wiper, headlight cleaning system, tinted glass, a radio-cassette player, and fog li
