1998 Porsche 959

US$1,157,000.00

riginally designed to be a Group B homologation racer, the 959 combined the best of performance and racing technology to become what was the fastest production car of the time. Boasting the cutting-edge technology of torque-shifting all-wheel-drive, an aerodynamic aluminium and Kevlar body and a race-tuned twin-turbocharged V6, these rally-bred vehicles could reach a top speed of 317km/h and were generations ahead of competing supercars.

Only 345 of these unique vehicles were produced between 1986 and 1993 making them one of the most desirable vehicles available today.

Sold new through Porsche Esapana in Madrid, this example was imported to Australia in 2015 where it was a showcase museum piece. It presents in the colour combination of Titanium Silver over a distinctive Burgundy interior. Having travelled only 21,165km since new, this car presents in exceptional condition inside and out. The paintwork presents in excellent condition and still carries the factory glass-like finish, while the leather interior remains firm and scuff-free. The car is completely original and unrestored, from the unique silver-accented sports seats to the factory Blaupunkt stereo. This example is accident free, and the shut lines are factory precise.

The twin-turbo 3.6L V6 is mated to a 6-speed manual gearbox providing the rally-like feel these cars were bred to deliver. Throughout it's life this vehicle has been meticulously maintained, indicative through the condition of this vehicle both aesthetically and mechanically.

Accompanied by all factory books bound by the original leather wallet, delivery documentation, original spare keys and factory jack/tools, this example has an excellent documented provenance. With such low mileage and in impeccable condition, this is an outstanding opportunity to obtain a vital piece of Porsche's motorsport history.
