Porsche unveiled the 911 Turbo (Type 930) at the 1975 Frankfurt Motor Show, introducing turbocharging to its road cars after substantial success on the track. It quickly became the range-topping 911 and a symbol of performance. Distinguished by wide fender flares, a luxurious interior, and the now-iconic “whale tail” spoiler, the Turbo's 3.0-liter flat six and reinforced four-speed manual made it one of the world's fastest production cars. In 1978, displacement grew to 3.3 liters and was the first model year to feature an intercooler, improving power and efficiency. U.S. emissions laws forced its withdrawal for the 1980 model year, but it returned in 1986, refined and more forgiving. Car and Driver noted, “Antics that would have spun you out before hardly faze it. The brakes are superb.”

As Germany's fastest production car at launch, the 911 Turbo became an icon of 1980s automotive culture. Its blistering performance and aggressive styling ensure its place as one of Porsche's most revered models. This matching-numbers 1987 911 Turbo Coupe built in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen in October 1986 is certainly no different! Selected in the rare shade of non-metallic Dunkelblau (Dark Blue), this 3.3-liter Turbo features an appealing and well-coordinated interior with Marine Blue carpeting, Marine Blue leather upper beltline, dashboard, and optional raised hub steering wheel. Beige leather covers the optionally heated and electric-height-adjustable sport seats, rear seats, and interior side panels. A sporting limited slip differential rounds out the options list.

The clean CARFAX Vehicle History Report reveals the car was originally sold via the world-famous Holbert's Porsche in Warrington, Pennsylvania, which at the time was also home to Porsche Motorsport North America. Under single ownership until 2015, the CARFAX reveals servicing exclusively at Holbert's until 2015 before being acquired by a new caretaker with approximately 18,000 miles. Since acquisition by the second owner, the car has accumulated a scant 500 miles and is noted to remain in excellent original and unmodified condition. Recent paint meter readings reveal it wears its original coat of non-metallic Dark Blue paint. The Turbo is furnished with its toolkit, owner's manual, and Porsche issued PPS report.
