Since its introduction in 1974, the Porsche 911 Turbo Carrera has remained one of the ultimate dream cars. Inspired by the wildly successful Porsche 917 that dominated the Can-Am race series in 1972 and 1973, Porsche's line of forced-induction production vehicles eventually included turbocharged versions of the front-engined 924 and 944 as well as several 911 variants, including the 930 Turbo Cabrio, the highly exotic Typ 959, and the current Typ 993 twin-turbo. This color photohistory examines all of Porsche's turbocharged road vehicles, along with the race cars from which they developed, including the 917, the famous Martini-liveried 912, the 956 and subsequent 962 that combined for six victories at Le Mans. The marvelous color photography of Peter Vann, author of 1998's Fantastic Porsche, illustrates cars from private collections throughout the world.
