Don't get me wrong I think the car is amazing in it's tech that was so far ahead of it's time, just not the prettiest. michel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the car that triggered my desire in sports cars . My uncle owned one and took me out in it as a 10 year old it blew my mind .

itsujack Posted 10October, 2020 Report Share Posted 10October, 2020 You can keep the 959, I'll take their GT1 🤩 https://duttongarage.com/Porsche-GT-Evolution~89505 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pork Chops Posted 11October, 2020 Report Share Posted 11October, 2020 I can't help myself. GT1 is an eye sore and I'm not a big fan of the 959 aside from the Canepa variants. 288 GTO and F40 are beautuful. Would anyone like to tell me how the 959 was any better / innovative etc than the Nissan Skyline R32 GTR which was launched in 1989? Yeah it predated the Skyline by a few years. It was made by Porsche and there were only 200. But at the other end of the scale Nissan mass mass produced their amazing car which is kinda cool too. Don't get me wrong the 959 was a poster car for me as a kid, but it is a little fugly and objectively not that special. I jumped in one at PCM once and it felt straight up like a nice 3.2 Carrera, but not much more. As an aside I saw the Duttons car advertised on FB Marketplace which amused me no end. I asked what their best price was for a cash buyer, money waiting... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the lines on these cars Think the last one sold for $6-8m AU money @Pork Chops Normally I'd agree with you on the GT1, as I'd never liked like look of it...until I saw and heard it a few weeks ago at The Bend. It was the only reason I went there out of curiosity and because its 1 of 20 in the world and the only one with road rego, yet I came away loving the car. The 959 to looks like a kit car to me, and I really don't like it at all and never will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
