This week we get the keys to an absolute icon! The Porsche 911 930 Turbo! Or shall we call it the original widowmaker?!
This car has been supplied to us by @noshisgram so we would like to say a massive thanks for the opportunity.
This car was one of the last with the 4 speed gearbox until the G50 gearbox came along! The 930 turbo was in production for almost 15 years! Which nowadays that just wouldn’t happen but 911’s just do not age one bit do they?

Legendary car, legendary owner!

I’ve owned mine for 10 years and it’s far from a Widowmaker. The 70’s and 80’s were chock full of image conscious buyers who cared more for how they look behind the wheel and less about how to actually handle that wheel. The boost rush is actually kind of disappointing if you watch too many RU-vid vids before getting behind the wheel.

Harry’s Garage has a great vid on this, too. Shocking consumption but great car. Another excellent video from you, Max. Thanks.

Thanks Christopher, happy you enjoyed it!

@aircooled.obsession 3 месяца назад

Harry posted a follow up video with the car on the dyno - the consumption wasn't that bad, he was calculating KMs instead of miles due to to the speedo dial. Check it out...

It’s reputation is the sum of poor tier tech and bad drivers

Brilliant experience to drive, but punishes the ignorant or disrespectful.

@MrLg55555 12 дней назад

@@domhall626, punishes the unskilled and skilled in equal measurement... That's the bottom line... The handling is shocking and is 5 out of 10 at best... Get yourself a Cayman S and then you will understand how a great car drives...

@domhall626 11 дней назад

@@MrLg55555 absolutely.. 45 years changes a lot. But the experience of getting into a 930 leaves you sweaty, exhausted, requiring new underwear and ready to put martini colours on the car for a Targa race. Speed and ability of a modern car is superb, but the old stuff, while slower, is a hell of a drug.

Max. Another one that You really enjoyed! And yes the 80's pin up Porsche. Oh how things have changed. What a classic. [Well i googled for a song..... i was thinking Duran Duran, Rio but that was '84? So go 'All she wants is.. exactly! A Porsche 911! Echoes of Miami Vice! 🤣🤣😏

The 911 is the poor mans 928. Look it up.

Una Turbo vera deve avere i Fuchs con petali neri... altrimenti sembra una delle tante 2.7 o SC sparafangate in economia

@robreelick4879 5 месяцев назад

It’s not the power in that car that kills you. It’s off the power in a corner. It’s called weight transfer, trailing throttle oversteer. That’s what gets you.

@pjay3028 5 месяцев назад

Yes, coupled with the rear wheel geometry of the semi trailing arms causing toe out during lift off..... ☠️ That's why they developed the Weisach axle for the 928.

Choice of music you say from the 80s? Phill Collin’s I can feel it coming in the air tonight . Straight out of the Miami Vice soundtrack. What a work of engineering. Porsche did know what they were doing. Great looking coupe. My Porsche of choice from a younger age was the 944 Turbo. Oh to be young again. Great video thanks for sharing

Absolutely dreadful car... A Beetle with way to much power... Shockingly poor handling at best... Anyone who says differently, has very little knowledge of driving a fast car quickly and very poor driving skills...

@bruceeide4359 12 дней назад

Poor thing, I bet you have never even seen a 930 up close. Sad little keyboard warrior.. 😀

@MrLg55555 12 дней назад

@@bruceeide4359, that's where you are wrong, senor payaso... A good friend of mine owned one around 10 years ago... Bought as an investment and now sold to finance a move to a larger business premises... As for being a "keyboard warrior", I'm 64 so that crushes your baseless argument... I've owned many nice cars, from a Porsche Carrera GT and Cayman S 987.2, to Mercedes to BMWs and have never considered owning any iteration of a 911... My current cars are a CLS Shooting Brake AMG 63S and E Class 350d Coupe... So I suggest that you run along back to Barnums because they will be leaving town soon...

@aircooled.obsession 3 месяца назад

Fantastic car and enjoyed the video, thanks Max & Noshi. One point i think you missed is the car's pendulum effect, due to the car's geography of weight, the physics dictate the back end wants to go 1st. So if somebody applied to much throttle mid corner, their nervous lift-off the pedal can cause the back end to spin out. So it was this effect that gave the car its 'widowmaker' status ☠

Thank you I’m glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for the information 😃

Famous car for al the wrong reasons then! lol Nice neutral color though.. The red 911s of that era seem to bring much unwanted attention imo. Great one channel presentation. Good on ya.
