In 2024, Porsche celebrates the \u201c50th anniversary of the 911 Turbo\u201d. Hans Mezger would have celebrated his 95th birthday in 2024. He brought the Turbo to the racetrack and later into series production. We are therefore publishing a buyer’s guide to the 930 Turbo, better known as the \u201cPorsche 911 Turbo\u201d.<\/strong> We will focus specifically on the Porsche 911 Turbo 3.0 (1975 – 1977)<\/strong> and Porsche 911 Turbo 3.3 (1978 – 1989) models.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Porsche 911 (930) Turbo 3.0 buying advice<\/h2>\n\n

The selection of used 911 Turbo 3.0s is very small. It is particularly difficult to find vehicles in original and unrestored condition. In total, only 2850 examples <\/strong>were produced in the model years 1975 to 1977. The very first 911 Turbo 3.0 from the first five months of production were still built with the \u201cold\u201d, chrome-plated exterior mirrors on the driver’s side, which is why these very early Turbos are even more sought-after among <\/strong>collectors than the other models from the first 1975 model year already are. In model year 1976, the Turbo 3.0 was still delivered with the forged 15-inch Fuchs rims. In its original condition, it has the typical look of the 911 Turbo 3.0. <\/p>\n\n

The last 911 Turbo 3.0 from the 1977 model year were already fitted with 16-inch <\/strong>Fuchs rims and the black stone guard film on the rear fenders. But of course you can also convert the 16-inch rims of the 1977 911 Turbo back to 15-inch if you can’t find a decent car from 1975 or 1976. If you choose a US model, you should be aware that these cars were delivered with the slightly lower output of 245 hp<\/strong> due to the stricter emissions regulations. However, converting to the European standard of 260 hp is easily possible. <\/p>\n\n

If you are looking for a very special air-cooled Porsche 911 with an incomparable silhouette and have the budget for it, the 911 Turbo 3.0 is the perfect choice. Almost no other Porsche 911 from series production is more exciting and thrilling. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

Porsche Turbo 3.0 price development<\/h3>\n\n

A Porsche 911 Turbo has always been something special. But the first 911 Turbo 3.0 in particular was way ahead of its time. Today, it is one of the most sought-after collector’s items<\/strong> in the air-cooled 911 range. However, because a 911 Turbo 3.0 was driven almost exclusively by particularly solvent owners, the care and condition is often better than that of normal 911s with naturally aspirated engines. Prices are also back at a more moderate level in 2024. After \u20ac245,000 was paid for a Turbo 3.0 in condition grade 1 in 2017, prices are currently around \u20ac200,000 again. <\/strong>For vehicles in particularly rare colors, surcharges of over \u20ac50,000 are not uncommon. <\/p>\n\n
