The 911 Turbo was put into production in 1975 with the original purpose of gaining homologation for the 1976 racing season. The total output from the ?rst engine was 256 hp at 5,500 rpm. To ensure that the platform could make the most of the higher power, a revised suspension, larger brakes, a sturdier 4-speed gearbox, wider rear track with ?ared wheel arches and the mythical "whale tail", all became part of the package. The 930 proved very fast but also a handful to drive, so the terms "snap oversteer" and "widow maker" quickly became common when describing it and are forever connected to the original Turbo. But one of the most iconic features of the 930 package is the exclusive Tartan seats that became the inspiration for this 930 Special Edition pack. Shottenkaro is the correct Porsche terminology for the Red-Blue, which is authentic McLaughlin Clan tartan. The Black Watch tartan is from the infamous 3rd Battalion Royal Regiment of Scotland and the Olive-White made for a very cool and bright interior. But we had a box that ?tted four socks so we needed one more tartan to complete the set. We picked one that, despite not being period correct, makes for one of the most beautiful designs in our collection, inspired by a fabric used by Magnus Walker in one of his Porsches.
