Porsche 911 Turbo For Sale
The Porsche 911 Turbo is one of the most iconic nameplates in automotive history — a line of forced-induction 911s stretching from the original 1975 930 through the 993 Turbo of 1998, each defined by its combination of extraordinary performance and demanding character.
The air-cooled Turbo lineage covers three generations: the 930 Turbo (1975–1989), the 964 Turbo (1991–1994), and the 993 Turbo (1995–1998). Each is a collector car in its own right. The 930 introduced turbocharging to the 911 with its brutal, lag-heavy power delivery — earning its "widow maker" reputation and its enduring legend. The 964 Turbo brought the wide Turbo bodywork to the updated 964 platform, with 3.3-litre and later 3.6-litre variants. The 993 Turbo arrived as the definitive air-cooled Turbo — twin turbos, all-wheel drive, 408hp, and the wide C4S body — a car that remains one of the most complete air-cooled 911s ever built.
Values for all three generations have appreciated substantially. The 993 Turbo commands the strongest premiums, with clean examples trading well above the standard Carrera. 930 Slant-nose and late-specification cars have seen dramatic value growth. Rennzone lists air-cooled Turbo examples from specialist dealers and private collectors worldwide — all verified, all Porsche.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between the 930, 964, and 993 Turbo?
- The 930 Turbo (1975–1989) uses a single turbo 3.0L or 3.3L engine with notorious turbo lag and rear-wheel drive. The 964 Turbo (1991–1994) updated the formula with the 964 body and improved chassis. The 993 Turbo (1995–1998) was a step change — twin turbos, all-wheel drive, 408hp, and far more manageable while remaining thrilling.
- Why is the 930 Turbo called the "widow maker"?
- The 930 earned the name from its sudden, on/off turbo delivery — the turbo lag meant power arrived in a rush at the worst possible moment mid-corner. Combined with 1970s tyre technology, it caught drivers off guard. Modern tyres and experienced inputs make it manageable, but it demands respect.
- Is the 993 Turbo a good investment?
- Yes. The 993 Turbo is widely regarded as the definitive air-cooled Turbo and values have risen significantly. Twin-turbo, all-wheel drive, and the final air-cooled 911 — the combination of rarity, performance, and heritage makes it one of the strongest investment propositions in the collector car market.
- Which air-cooled Turbo is easiest to drive?
- The 993 Turbo by a significant margin — its twin-turbo setup delivers power more progressively, and all-wheel drive provides security the 930 and 964 Turbo lack. The 964 Turbo sits in the middle. All three reward smooth, committed driving but the 993 is the most approachable.
