1982 Porsche 930 Turbo Slant Nose - One Take

  • Опубликовано: 8 июл 2024
  • This 1982 Porsche 930 Turbo is one of a very few factory-produced "Flachbau," or "Slantnose" cars in stock, original condition. With low-miles, a perfectly period color combination, and a very cool story behind it, driving this 930 is a brilliant experience, and was a wise investment. All Flachbau cars were Euro-market only, and this is one of a very few, if any other Flachbau's registered in California.

    I'm the owner. Bummed to have taken anything away from the review by not being enthusiastic enough. I am proud to be able to own one of the iconic cars of my youth, one at the top of my Dream Car list, but the adage "never meet your heroes" rings true for here. I'm a car guy through and through and spend all of my free time modifying, showing, and racing cars. My personality comes out more in the garage or on the race track than on camera. For those who wouldn't want to have a beer with me, first round is on me if you bump into me at the bar!

      I can't believe the negative attacks on the owner. Car guys, any car guys should appreciate a great video about an awesome and rare example.
      Kudos to the owner for a gentleman's and true officianado's response. I would gladly enjoy a beer and car talk with Rob, even without the means to own such a classic iconic sports car.

    Awesome video, and car. My old man owned a 1980 930 turbo 3.3L (not slant nosed) in exactly the same colour albeit with green leather interior from new. Had some minor mods that helped it net 350-360hp. The only other way you could experience similar 'throw you back in your seat' acceleration back in those days was in a jet airplane taking off. Was amazing back in the day, but nothing special in this day in age. I believe the 4 speed was retained in the 930 turbo as the 5 speed couldn't reliably handle the torque.

      not disputing that, the Porsche I drove was a great drive...but it is monotonous to see the same car being reviewed repeatedly. Yes, I know they are different from gen to gen in small ways...but still basically the same damn car. Also, Porsche's are so flawlessly good, they are not really exciting anyways...just perfectly competent.

      Packrus Supra's are very capable GT handlers, most are simply not properly setup. The MKIV put down .98G on a skidpad on '93 tire technology and had a stopping distance from 70-0 in 158ft and from 60 in 112, something that wasn't beaten until Carrera GT. Definitely more than capable when properly setup in the right hands.

    @michaelhughes3302 6 лет назад +2

    Heads up Matt. This car has almost certainly been given a factory conversation. Check out the screen shot at 33 seconds. It has the correct but wonky looking elongated front profile. Notice how much of the plastic shroud between the hood and bumper are exposed. Most aftermarket examples tried to minimize this, making the car slightly shorter and arguably much better proportioned. The real test with this particular example would actually be the rear fender slats. They were made of wood from the factory, believe it or not. All the best in 2018 pal. Cheers, Michael.

    i just put 1k miles on a 88 5spd 930 slant nose in red and i feel the car was goddamn planted and drove pretty darn fast overall solid car with a feel that was to die for you felt as if you were in a movie.. for reference my 2 other cars are. Fully bolted on 135i bmw with 20k in mods and a 640i 4 dr stock. Not once did i feel the porsche was lacking in terms of grip power or anything

    Just want to say two things..
    1 The 930 had 4-speed gearbox becourse 5 -speed could't handle the tourqe.
    2. Factory 930 3.3l Européen car has only 300 bhp. But the factory 930 Slatnose had 330 bhp
