Timo Bernhard with Benjamin Hong at the unveiling of the Porsche 911 Turbo S & 911 GT3 at the Porsche Centre Singapore. Porsche returns to the Le Mans 24 Hour endurance race in 2014 and Timo is part of the driver line up that includes Roman Dumas, Neel Jani and F1's Mark Webber.
The first turbocharged production Porsche, top of the line & fastest 911 model. Attributes that have contributed to the phenomenon rise in values of the early 911 turbos which are at up to 5 x the price of standard 911s in the global classic car markets. With global prices at this high level & the high import taxes for classic cars into Singapore, this may be the best time to snatch one that is already in Singapore.

Prominent fan of early Porsche 911 Turbo
The 911 Turbo had an especially prominent fan very early on: Professor Ferry Porsche drove his 911 Turbo with chassis number 930 770 088 until 16 June, 1980, for a total of 8,200 kms. Equipped with a steel sliding sunroof, air conditioning, brown leather upholstery and many other extras, this car has since been part of the Porsche Museum collection.
