Remember that episode where Damian mistakenly bought a broken Porsche 911 from Silverstone Auctions? The 930 Turbo without a turbo? Well itās finally back, fixed, and glorious, thanks to Emblem Sports Cars.
This week, TheCarGuys take the revitalised Turbo out for its first shakedown after an eye-watering repair bill!
Fortunately, it is now one of the best Porsches in the world ā a low mileage 1989 last-of-the-line G50 930 Turbo. Does it get any better?
Created by two ordinary guys with an obsession for cars, TheCarGuys.tv is a digital channel that celebrates everything automotive ā supercars, classics, quirky, hidden gems and those in the TCG garage.

When I was a young man and massively into my motorbikes I had no interest whatsoever for cars, then one day in 1985 I parked next to a 911 turbo and my eyes were opened. I discovered Porsche and fell in love with all their cars. Over the years I was lucky enough to drive 944's, 928's,911's inc a turbo but never had any spare money to buy my own Porsche š That changed 20mths ago when I finally bought a 987.1 Cayman S š I love my Cayman and to think it has the performance to equal that original 911 turbo that I parked next to all those years ago blows me away. I could never afford to buy a classic 911 turbo but I have the next best thing for me and I'm more then happy. Porsche for ever! ā¤ļø Another great vid by the way lads š

Iāve had my 1988 930 Cabriolet for 25 years now. Itās been slightly āweaponizedā with a larger turbo, stainless header system/exhaust, and a few other things. After all these years, it is still a totally exhilarating yet understated driving experience. If youāre at all like me, the longer you keep your 930, the more youāll enjoy it.., guaranteed!

The 1989 porsche 911 turbo is my dream car I would spend what you did it's the best sports car design ever
-
Thanks a million for another great video! This channel is quickly rising in the ranks amongs my favourite car-channels. Keep up the good work boys!
-
Great video guys on the continuous story of this awesome car. I had kept an eye on this car pre auction and couldnāt quite Believe it when you guys bought it. We also imported an 1987 930 turbo high output to Australia. And yes a few little problems, but wow the power delivery when the turbo spooled up.

Great video guys, love it when Jasonās driving gets those reactions from you Damian!!!! š

I live in the mid-west and have a stock 1979 Porsche 928 5 speed manual with the 220 locking differential option and one day hit a slightly damp greasy road and ignorantly gave it a little to much throttle which literally caused a near heart attack and almost had me facing the other way. Thankfully there were not other cars or it could have ended much worse. And this is with only 219 hp. All 930's I believe came standard with the 220 locking diff and with the turbo coming on suddenly on a greasy surface with both rear wheels nearly locked, you could easily end up in a ditch and pointing the other way which is why the 930 earned the title widow maker.

Lovely car and a fantastic informative video - continued quality content from two great guys
-
Appreciate you sharing such an amazing 930, enjoyed it very much.
-
Again, a great video.You guys always look like you're having fun, which makes me smile, no pretence at all, just a really nice friendship, what a sweet running 930 now, personally I prefer these cool, older cars (achingly lovely)

Clicked onto this for the sound. My mother had a 930 ā89 Targa with 16k on the clock for years that I loved driving. I will buy one myself one day too once I have convinced my wife it wonāt kill me!
-
Every single Porsche review video I've seen, the car is always stopped on a stony somewhat dirty surface and the reviewer climbs in with no attempt to shake the crap off his shoes. Incredible.
-
Great video guys, and you make a great comedy duo.Ā Stunning car which takes me back to the age of bellbottoms,Ā sidelocks and moustaches, open necked shirts with collars the size of wing flaps on a 747 etc.......!!!!!Ā As another owner of a 987.1 Cayman, I can appreciate everything about your driving experience in that classic Porsche. Another thing, the air cooled engines have a noticeably gruffer note than most water cooledĀ Porsches Ā these days that lack the sport exhaust.Ā Ā My Cayman has a Ā Capristi system to enhance theĀ distinctive flat six sound and add about 22 HP.

You and Harry's garage are my favourites No crappy music intro for the first minute or so proper petrol heads When you getting a drone

this was the car of my dreams back in the day, very nicely put together video guys, moves along perfectly, very watchable, love the humour - thanks for sharing TFS !
-
Love this channel proper car guys , keep the vids coming !!
-
That is a bit of me. 930 Turbo, Fleetwood Mac in the tape deck, shoes with no socks..! š Good job gents

Congratulations for the car and the video. I have to admit that you did a great job getting this piece of Porsche's history back. I love the lines of the car, they're just timeless...They were utterly machines to be driven and that's all about them! I would like to see the car personally, but on the video doesn't really stands out the colour. And the interiour in white, is not completely my cup of tea but whatever! I like the comment about VW Golf R having the same power output but I can imagine it's like comparing apples and oranges...I wonder who owned this car 30 years ago...when exotic cars were not that popular.Anyways, keep posting more videos of cars because I am totally addicted to them!! By the way, besides the general maintenance, do you have any improvements if we can say that planned? Cheers from Majorca.

"Brake ā¦. brake a lot more than that!!" "If I want a flaming death experience, this car will deliver". Loving the sense of humour, and enjoying going back to watch some older content! I remember a mate of mine getting the next gen turbo 2nd hand in the mid 90s - it was all going so well until "the turbo chopped in whilst going around the roundabout" ending up down the motorway slip road embankment and through a fence ā¦.

You need fuchs wheels with black center and it is perfect :)
