This car appeared on the cover of Car and Driver back in the day.
An early Porsche 911 Turbo is special enough on its own, but this is a rare factory-modified edition.Porsche's exclusive special orders department customized this 911 with a slant nose, featuring 944-sourced pop-up headlights, giving this street car the look of a 935 racer.This example appeared on the cover of the February 1983 issue of Car and Driver, and it's up for auction on Bring a Trailer until Tuesday, April 9.
An adjustable boost controller, like that found in the 935, suggested the potential for even more shove, and we did note that a speed run clocking in at 160 mph was managed even with some detonation thanks to U.S. emissions tuning. There was more speed left on the table.And this 930 had enough special styling tweaks to have its picture clipped out and stuck on the inside of many a high-school locker.
