1976 PORSCHE 911 (930) TURBO (McQueen)

ENGINE:  Turbocharged 3.0-liter flat-6
TOP SPEED: 155 mph
HORSEPOWER: 234

This 1976 911 Turbo Carrera was the last new car purchased by legendary actor and accomplished racing driver Steve McQueen, just four years before his death. The vehicle, a rare non-intercooled early production model with a 3.0-liter engine and Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection, was ordered from Bob Smith Porsche in Hollywood with factory options including dual mirrors, a sunroof, and a limited-slip differential. But automobile aficionado McQueen added a few of his own touches, including a kill switch on the dash that would turn off the tail and brake lights in case he were to be chased by law enforcement.
