1988 Porsche Turbo 930 with Jason Huckabay

THE WOODLANDS TX -- In this episode of Why This Ride?, we sit down with Jason Huckabay, a Texas-based entrepreneur, to hear the story behind his dream car: a stunning 1988 Porsche 930 Turbo. What started as a poster on his childhood wall eventually became a reality decades later—and not by accident, but through patience, discipline, and a lifelong passion for cars. Jason shares what makes the 930 so special, from its raw, visceral driving experience to its reputation as an unforgiving but rewarding machine. We talk about turbo lag, the “Widowmaker” nickname, and why these air-cooled icons feel more like rolling pieces of art than modern performance cars. With just 25,000 original miles and all-original condition, this particular 930 represents both a personal milestone and a smart long-term investment. The conversation also dives into Jason’s background, his journey as a business owner, memories of growing up idolizing 1980s sports cars, and why he believes cars like this are meant to be driven—not hidden away. From Hill Country rallies to weekly drives that keep the car healthy, Jason explains how ownership goes far beyond simply parking it in a garage. If you love classic cars, air-cooled Porsches, or stories about finally buying the car you dreamed about as a kid, this episode is for you.
