There is a 924GTR race car for sale at the Vegas Auto Showroom for $375,000. The info sheet states it is 1 of 17 made and produces 375hp. That must be the most expensive 924 for sale at the moment...

I'm sure that you could buy a 968 Turbo RS for a lot less, and it's much more rare.

Not true

My non running 1987 944 n/a is now on the market for $450,000
Any takers?

Hmm pretty sure i'd get more enjoyment putting that money into my own project and actually learning the car back to front, rather than just buying one and driving it.

LP944

Must be a track dominator!

Korsair970

hmm look there's front bumper damage on it... it's probably got rust... look I'll give you 500 less than KBB unless you have some records for it...

Id track the heck out of that thing if it wasn't museum priced...

xsboost90

wonder how much you could get if you parted it?

924RACR

Chassis was never even one of the orig race cars, just a spare... horrendously overpriced for what it is. Which is why it's been sitting there for a LONG time.

Hey, everything's for sale, for the right price!

Shame they couldn't keep it in good condition...

Yes, but this is one of the more unique cars having won it's class at LeMans using BFG street tires. Unique car. $375k is a bit much, but it has much more history than and 968. That is what they are selling here.


{Edit}
If it has no competition history and was only a back up car or just painted like the real 87 BFG car it is sham and horribly over priced.

There was a nice writeup on these cars in the current Panorama.

ideola

Actually, the Panorama write-up was on the D-Production (normally aspirated) cars, not the GTRs...the GTRs were the turbo-charged successors when rule changes made the D-Prods uncompetitive.

what a beast that thing must be
