This 1978 Porsche 930 Turbo is a US-market coupe that was exported to Venezuela, where it was acquired by the seller in 2015. Work performed between 2023 and 2025 included a repaint as well as a refresh of the turbocharged 3.3-liter flat-six and four-speed manual transaxle, an overhaul of the K-Jetronic fuel injection system, a conversion of the air conditioning system to R134a, replacement of the clutch, and the installation of a replacement K27 turbocharger and Billy Boat exhaust system. The car is finished in Copper Brown Metallic over Cork leather, and it is equipped with a limited-slip differential, 17″ Fuchs-style wheels, a sunroof, a tea tray rear spoiler, a cassette stereo, and power windows. This 930 Turbo was brought back to the US in July 2026 and is now offered with a Porsche Production Specifications certificate, the owner’s manual, a tool kit, and a clean Florida title in the seller’s name.
The car came specified in paint-to-sample Braun and was repainted in Copper Brown Metallic during the aforementioned refurbishment, which also involved replacing or refurbishing the exterior trim, seals, and hardware as necessary. Features include a sunroof, front fog lamps, headlight washers, dual side mirrors, a rear window wiper, rear fender stone guards, rear bumperettes, a front spoiler, and a “tea tray” rear spoiler. Paint meter readings are provided in the gallery.
The 17″ Fuchs-style wheels are mounted with Dunlop Direzza tires. Stopping power is provided by power-assisted four-wheel ventilated discs.
The cabin features seating surfaces upholstered in Cork leather along with a color-coordinated dashboard and door panels. Burl wood trim accents the dash, and interior features include a Blaupunkt cassette stereo, power windows, and air conditioning, which was converted to R134a during the refurbishment. A Sanden compressor and Kuehl-style condenser were also installed, and the heating system was refreshed.
The three-spoke steering wheel has been rewrapped in leather and frames a 150-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 6,700-rpm redline as well as an analog clock and gauges for oil level, oil temperature, oil pressure, and fuel level. The six-digit odometer has been repaired and was reset to zero under current ownership. It shows 175 miles, and total mileage is unknown.
The turbocharged and intercooled 3.3-liter flat-six was factory rated at 300 horsepower and 291 lb-ft of torque. A replacement BorgWarner K27 turbocharger was fitted under current ownership, and additional work since 2025 has involved installing hydraulic timing chain tensioners and replacing the piston rings, bearings, and seals. The cylinder heads were serviced with replacement valve guides, seats, and gaskets, and the fuel injection system was refurbished with replacement injectors, a rebuilt warm-up regulator, and a rebuilt auxiliary/bypass idle air valve. Compression test results are viewable in the gallery.
The four-speed manual transaxle was fitted with replacement synchronizers and sleeves during the refurbishment, and additional work involved replacing the clutch, resurfacing the flywheel, and installing a Billy Boat exhaust system. The car came optioned with a limited-slip differential.
The Porsche Production Specifications certificate shows the factory colors and optional equipment along with a completion date in June 1978.
