1975 Porsche 911 Turbo (930) Coupe (Karmann)

Rest-of-World market only for MY1975: the 930 Turbo debuted in Europe this year, but NICB (1976 ed.: "Turbo Carrera Series (1976 -) From VIN 9306800001") documents the US-market start as MY1976, not MY1975 — the same "European debut year vs US federalized on-sale year" gap as the 1980 924/930 case. Featured 3.0L turbocharged flat-6 producing 260 hp with distinctive whale tail rear spoiler and wider body. Came with 4-speed manual transmission only (no 5-speed or Sportomatic option). A US-titled 1975 example is most plausibly a later grey-market European import.
