Talking My new 924

It's the rare, rear engined 924...







It is one of two 924gtp replicas made as promotional items for the 80s movie "No Man's Land" with Charlie Sheen.

It's been sitting in this guy's garage for 14 or 15 years, so it's in pretty good shape. I pick it up next weekend. Anybody have a pint-sized turbo sitting around?

It's not going to stay with the same powertrain or paint/decals. I've been debating whether to just pull the movie-related stickers and re-paint it, or to try to replicate a paint/decal scheme from one of the original cars. It could use a little fiberglass wing too.

Did they make a lot of these? I really want one with a two stroke engine. **** it would be faster than my real life 924S.

I cant even understand it, people think that "No mans land" car looks so cool, and honestly imo its the ugliest fking thing ive ever seen lol.

If anythings cool looking its a rear euro fender, but alot of people hate the look of that too.....*Sigh* i guess its all preference.

Christ, Mike - that thing is rare as hell! Keep it original!



BTW, yes, I'm aware that I'm pleading for the originality of an 80's movie promo item. I don't want to hear it, Sam! And for the record, if you don't own this movie, you're not a true P-Car fan. It's nice to see D.B. Sweeney in a film where he isn't getting the **** kicked out of him by aliens.
