Default 1977 turbo I'm in love.

Picked up this '77 Turbo about 3 weeks ago, I friggin love this car. Wasn't looking for a turbo, then a friend of a friend decided to sell, couldn't pass this one up. 34k original miles, service history going back to '77. PO owned the car since '82 and was the 3rd owner. Just figured I'd share my new baby with you guys

Very nice! I drove my 77 this weekend for the first time in months and it was a great ride!

Love that blue! My first Porsche 924 was that color when I was 16 and had the same beige leather interior as well. Your car is fantastic.

Spencer,

Nice score! I picked up a 77 last fall, my forth turbo and my favorite by far.

Spencer,

Congratulations !

I realize that this beautiful car is from the late seventies but we are now in the 21st century ..........get rid of that hideous bra before it screws the paint up !

If you're worried about stone chips on the front then 3M Clearbra is the answer!

Spencer, you should meet The Baron, come to Targa California....he and one of his buddies are in love with your '69 S, as well as this 930.

I love this color, throws me back to my '69 Camaro SS in LeMans blue. A real time capsule with your cell phone antenna and sheepskins ! She's beautiful.

This car is amazing...amazing. But I'd also get rid of that black bra and throw a 3M clearbra on it....

yes, bra must come off, he even has the door mirrors wrapped in a leather jock strap! So much fun, I had no idea what I was missing. Reading the Baron's threads on early turbos, made me feel like i was missing out, now I know I was missing out. I think i will bring her to targa ca this year. Sonnet, you broke me on blue cars, it's my favorite color now

Thanks for posting, Minerva blue over cork interior, that's a beautiful car. Every time I drive it I can't believe this car is close 40 years old. It's still just so fast... Congrats, it's a special piece of Porsche history, happy motoring.
