But, that design of Harm lagaay family, however, was only thick when the 924 a 944?

Well, not really. Loyal autoblog readers will @casperh already see the reels in a 924 Carrera GTS Club Sport. Thus, it is known that some schriele 924 messages to the gym.

That last is certainly true for this 924 GTR, together with the 924 GTP (hip purple pants video!) and the race variants of the 944 one of the thickest ‘VolksPorsches’ that ever the Porsche factory left. Of the 924 GTR were 17 instances manufactures. Nine of them were in the 80s and enrolled at Le Mans. Porsche did undoubtedly the image of the 924 what apple, as a doubtful image ‘enjoyed’ as a car for secretaries.

The GTR is actually an evolution of the 924 Carrera GTS Club Sport where Casper has ridden. Compared to the regular 924 Turbo is also in this variant the intercooler to the front of the vehicle is placed, only the GTR is still a lot bigger than the GTS. A roll cage, a fully adjustable suspension, and braking technology from the Porsche 935 are also present. The engine is still the 2.0 liter block that much scorn on him, was because of its VW roots, but dry sump-lubrication and the thick turbo with intercooler kicks this it is now up to a whopping 375 horsepower. More than sufficient to get the 930 kilo weighing 924 decent place to get. This also appeared at Le Mans in 1980, where 924 GTR’s sixth, twelfth and detiende were in the general classification. A cheap option to Porsche to drive, however, it was not: in 1981, had the car already have $75,000 in your pocket.

This copy soon to be auctioned, there is not much track action seen. Only 109 km it is driven. It is one of the two GTRs in Japan is delivered. After two years in storage have stood was ‘ie in 1983 was bought by a Japanese businessman who very rarely the circuits from Suzuka and Fuji with it and leave his mileage on those days, carefully set down.

After this heavy track-life has the 924 days are worn in the memory of the Japanese, who only left was for the annual service. The engine has now and again allowed to run, so if it is good is it not completely fixed.

Are you buying this chunky ’80s wheels on nice ’80s wheels?

Thanks to Dennis for the tip!
