Highlights

Porsche 1975
The Porsche 911 Turbo is exhibited at the Paris Motor Show in October 1974 and causes something of a sensation. In visual terms, the car – referred to internally as the 930 – is immediately recognisable by its wider body and tyres, front spoiler and rear wing. The 911 Turbo, available from spring 1975 onwards, is regarded as the fastest series-production vehicle of its time.

Sept. 1975: Porsche AG is the first automotive manufacturer to use Thyssens's double-sided hot-dip galvanised panels as standard in the newly introduced 1976 "I" series of the 911. By reliably increasing the durability of the corrosion-proof bodies in this way, Porsche is able to offer warranties of up to six years against rust damage.
