Porsche 911 930 Turbo - The widow maker
Porsche 930 or 911 Turbo, not "930 Turbo".

930 is the turbo model of the 911, so a 930 Turbo would be a 911 Turbo Turbo.

Yes, I am that someone who mentions this every time someone says "930 Turbo". Which makes me as popular at parties as you'd imagine.

...Ronin, a fairly mediocre 1998 Robert De Niro film that is otherwise pretty much forgotten except for the car chasing starring the aforementioned Audi.
Wash your filthy mouth out, it's one of the best 90s spy thrillers and has some of the best car chases in cinema history.
Totally agree. One of my favourite ever films and I bought no less than 3 Audi S8's of the back of it.

Any American pick up truck.

"Have you got a rifle rack in the back?"

I used to take my F150 to Holland for on the ferry from Harwich to the Hoek & would get asked this regularly by customs on both sides.
