The Car Behind This Bag
1984-1985 · 3.3L turbocharged flat-six · Zuffenhausen · 930 chassis · the original widow-maker
The 930 was the first production turbocharged Porsche and the car that taught a generation of drivers what turbo lag actually meant. Launched in 1975 with a 3.0-litre engine and bored out to 3.3 litres in 1978, the 930 produced 300 horsepower in European trim — a number that meant nothing until the boost arrived suddenly somewhere past 4,000 rpm. The whale-tail rear spoiler and flared arches became the silhouette every poster and bedroom wall referred to as "the 911 Turbo.
It was the supercar of the 1980s mid-tier. Doc Brown drives a 930 in Back to the Future Part II's alternate 1985. The car was Don Johnson's actual personal vehicle during the run of Miami Vice. Patrick Bateman fantasized about one in American Psycho. The 930's reputation for snap-oversteer at the limit — earned through a chassis that had been engineered for half the power — produced the nickname "widow-maker" and a particular kind of cocaine-era romance about the car.
Porsche built the 930 from 1975 through 1989, with US-market cars discontinued from 1980 to 1985 over emissions issues. The interiors, often optioned in the factory tartans Mackenzie or McLaughlan over leather, are now recognized as the most distinctive cabin treatment of the air-cooled era.
