Porsche 930 Turbo Prices in Australia: 2026 Market Guide

Porsche 930 Turbo prices in Australia cover a wide range. In the AutoMarkets database, recorded sales run from $127,920 to $410,000, with a $217,136 average across 10 sales. Yet that headline average brings together cars with very different histories: first-year 3.0-litre Turbos, later 3.3-litre examples, right- and left-hand drive imports, and cars with substantial modifications.

Delivery history adds another layer. An Australian-market Porsche collected overseas under tourist delivery can have a different provenance from a car first sold into the UK market and imported here decades later. Both crossed an ocean; the paperwork explains why they belong in different comparisons.

Using our Porsche 911 Turbo (930) Market Index, this guide examines the two delivery submarkets, the individual cars behind the results and what Australian buyers should compare before settling on a price.

Data checked on 22 September 2026. All prices are Australian dollars.

Porsche 930 Turbo market snapshot in Australia

The full market records $2,171,358 in sales, with the most recent result a 1982 right-hand drive Turbo at $201,888 on 7 September 2026. These are historical observations spanning February 2021 to September 2026, rather than ten sales from the current year.

The median of the ten recorded prices is $191,000, calculated from the individual sold results. Its position below the average shows how strongly the two expensive 1975 cars influence the headline figure.

Australian-delivered vs imported 930 Turbos: what the numbers mean

The $402,750 local/tourist average is more than twice the $170,732 import average. That is a striking difference, but it does not establish a fixed Australian-delivery premium.

Both sold cars in the combined Australian-delivered/tourist-delivery group are 1975 3.0-litre examples, and both original auction descriptions identify tourist-delivery provenance. Their prices reflect a combination of first-year specification, individual history, restoration and presentation. This sample does not provide a separate average for conventionally Australian-delivered cars.

The eight import results cover a broader range of years and specifications. They include right-hand drive cars, left-hand drive cars and modified examples. Comparing these two averages therefore changes several variables at once.

Our reading is that buyers should compare delivery history after matching model year, engine generation, steering position and condition as closely as possible. An ordinary later 3.3-litre Australian-delivered car cannot be valued at $402,750 simply because it sits under the same delivery heading as two exceptional 1975 cars.

What is Porsche tourist delivery?

Tourist delivery describes an arrangement where a new-car buyer takes delivery overseas, uses the car there and subsequently brings it to their home market. The overseas handover location and the car's intended destination market can be different.

For an Australian buyer, a period tourist-delivery Porsche could therefore have been ordered to Australian-market requirements but collected in Europe. That history differs from a used UK-market or other overseas-market car imported into Australia later in life.

The silver 1975 Turbo below makes the distinction concrete. Its auction description identifies it as an Australian-market car delivered through Porsche Cars Great Britain in July 1975, then shipped to Australia in July 1976. The sale documentation reportedly included correspondence confirming construction to the Australian Design Rules applicable in 1975. Read the original auction description.

AutoMarkets groups these cars under Tourist Delivery / Australian Delivered. Buyers should still establish each car's original order, destination specification and delivery history. Tourist delivery alone does not prove Australian specification, and right-hand drive alone does not prove Australian delivery.

The 930 specifications that matter when comparing prices

The 930 was Porsche's original production 911 Turbo. Its wide rear arches, prominent spoiler and turbocharged air-cooled flat-six give it a distinct identity within the G-body 911 family.

The early 3.0-litre cars used a four-speed manual gearbox. Porsche quotes 191kW for the original version. For the 1978 model year, the engine grew to 3.3 litres and gained an intercooler, with Porsche quoting 221kW for that specification. Outputs and equipment differed between destination markets, so check the specification of the actual car rather than applying one figure to every 930. Porsche's model history explains the development.

The 1989 model year introduced a five-speed gearbox, adding another specification distinction when choosing comparable sales. A final-year five-speed should be assessed against similar cars before drawing conclusions from a four-speed result. Porsche's period-model overview confirms the change.

Four Australian auction results, with chassis numbers

These examples show how provenance and condition interact with price. Earlier cars use shorter chassis identifiers; the numbers below are reproduced in their published form. Sale prices and dates come from AutoMarkets, with chassis/VIN references cross-checked against the linked auction archives.

1975 Porsche 930 Turbo 3.0: $410,000

Listing photo: Collecting Cars, via AutoMarkets.

Chassis: 9305700085. Recorded odometer: 228,876km.

This Emerald Green Metallic car remains the highest recorded sale in our 930 market. Collecting Cars described Australian tourist-delivery history, a matching-numbers 3.0-litre engine and an extensive restoration, with a Terracotta leather interior.

The result is a useful reminder that mileage does not operate in isolation. A high displayed odometer did not prevent this particular early Turbo from achieving the strongest price in the dataset. Its first-year identity, restoration and documented history are essential context; the result should not be treated as a ceiling for every 930 or a current valuation for this car.

1975 Porsche 930 Turbo 3.0: $395,500

Listing photo: Collecting Cars, via AutoMarkets.

Chassis: 9305700229. Recorded odometer: 28,305km.

The silver Coffs Harbour car sold with a single-family ownership story and the tourist-delivery history outlined above. Its auction description records restoration and engine-rebuild work between 2010 and 2014. The displayed mileage was not warranted.

For Australian collectors, this is a useful example of why the ownership file matters. Original delivery records and a coherent history can distinguish a car far more clearly than a short advertisement saying “Australian delivered”. Together with the green car, it explains the composition of our local/tourist submarket today. Two individual results cannot establish a general price trend.

1981 Porsche 930 Turbo 3.3: $200,000

Listing photo: Collecting Cars, via AutoMarkets.

VIN: WP0ZZZ93ZBS000357. AutoMarkets odometer equivalent: 96,560km.

This Zinc Metallic, right-hand drive example was originally delivered to the UK. Its auction described approximately 60,000 miles, a service history and accompanying Porsche Certificate of Authenticity. It was offered in Queensland without current Australian registration.

The description also disclosed gear-selection issues, non-working air conditioning and several smaller faults. Those details matter when interpreting the $200,000 result: it was a price for this car, with its particular history and outstanding work.

It demonstrates that the import category includes right-hand drive cars with documented histories. An import label alone tells a buyer too little about condition, usability or the likely cost of preparation.

1978 Porsche 930 Turbo 3.3: $175,000

Listing photo: Collecting Cars, via AutoMarkets.

Chassis: 9308700094. AutoMarkets odometer equivalent: 139,469km.

This Guards Red example was registered in the UK in March 1978 and later offered in New South Wales. The auction recorded 86,662 miles and long-term ownership, with an engine rebuild, transmission work and a bare-metal repaint described in its history.

It also had aftermarket wheels, a replacement steering wheel and exhaust changes, plus disclosed air-conditioning and heating work to address. These make it a useful comparison for a driver-focused purchase where maintenance and presentation need to be assessed alongside originality.

Its $175,000 result sits below the 1981 UK import above, but the difference cannot be attributed to age or mileage alone. Buyers need to compare the scope of completed work, supporting invoices and what remains to be done.

What does the latest Australian 930 result tell us?

The most recent recorded sale is the 1982 Porsche 930 Turbo at $201,888, sold on 7 September 2026 with 167,712km recorded. AutoMarkets places it in the import submarket, and it is the highest sold result currently recorded in that group.

It is a fresh reference point for Australian buyers, but one transaction cannot establish that 930 prices are rising. Likewise, comparing the two 1975 sales several years apart would not measure depreciation: they are different cars.

Dealer asking prices also need to be kept separate. Our market records a $359,900 last asking price for a 1989 five-speed car, dated 18 May 2026. That describes a seller's advertised position, not a completed sale. View that historical listing.

How to compare a Porsche 930 Turbo for sale in Australia

Start with the right comparison group, then investigate the individual car:

• Delivery evidence: establish the original destination market, supplying dealer and overseas handover history. Ask for the original order, delivery book and supporting Porsche correspondence where available.

• Identity and specification: reconcile the chassis/VIN with the vehicle and documents, then check the engine, gearbox and claimed original specification. A VIN alone does not establish matching numbers or tourist-delivery status.

• Steering and modifications: distinguish factory right-hand drive, left-hand drive and any conversion. Record body, engine, suspension and interior changes before choosing comparable sales.

• Mechanical and body condition: use a Porsche specialist to assess the car and review restoration and rebuild invoices. An invoice's scope matters more than a broad claim that the car has been “restored”.

• Mileage evidence: reconcile miles and kilometres with the service chronology. A converted kilometre figure or an unwarranted odometer reading is not proof of total lifetime distance.

• Total acquisition cost: compare the recorded price with auction fees, transport, registration needs and immediate work. A cheaper purchase can require a larger preparation budget.

For a seller, the same evidence makes the valuation argument stronger. A documented delivery story, detailed invoices and clear disclosure of modifications let buyers judge the car against relevant examples.

Porsche 930 Turbo Australia: frequently asked questions

What is the average Porsche 930 Turbo price in Australia?

AutoMarkets records an average of $217,136 across 10 sold results, checked on 22 September 2026. This is a historical sample average; a particular car's year, provenance, specification and condition determine how relevant it is.

Are Australian-delivered 930 Turbos worth more than imports?

Our combined Australian-delivered/tourist-delivery group has a higher recorded average, but its two sales are both first-year 1975 tourist-delivery cars. The current sample cannot isolate a percentage premium for Australian delivery alone.

Is tourist delivery the same as a personal import?

Tourist delivery describes the original new-car handover arrangement. “Import” can describe several later pathways into Australia. For valuation, establish whether the car was originally ordered for Australia or first supplied to another market; its shipping route alone does not settle that question.

Does right-hand drive mean Australian delivered?

No. The UK-delivered 1981 example above is right-hand drive and remains an import in our market classification. Original delivery documentation is the evidence that matters.

Where can I find Porsche 930 Turbos for sale and past results?

Visit the AutoMarkets Porsche 930 Turbo market for tracked listings and sale history. It showed zero active listings at the time of this review; that is the platform's tracked inventory, not a claim that no 930s are available elsewhere in Australia.

Methodology: AutoMarkets prices, classifications and sold counts were checked on 22 September 2026. Averages are the displayed, rounded figures; the median was calculated from the ten sold prices. Not-sold listings and last asking prices are excluded from the sold statistics. Recorded prices should not be assumed to include every buyer fee or acquisition cost. Auction descriptions supply provenance and condition claims as reported at the time of sale; linked external archives supply chassis/VIN references. This article does not infer a repeat-sales index or a uniform delivery premium from the small sample.
