Thanks for sharing. Probably the best collection of pics for this car I have ever run across!

It's a lovely looking car, I'm guessing $350-400k ?

Fantastic unique car and transaxel dream! One of Porsches most rare cars for sure. Price is about 850 000 euros.

I stand corrected - could very well be near the 480 bhp point based on the data sheet for #1.

That's #1, but it didn't come from the factory like that....

I wonder if all that work has devalued it for the "investors".

When they raced the RS cars in the BPR series they were in the 450hp region with the "factory setup" so the 480hp claim I think is relevant.
Anyhow a very nice and rare factory racer that I would love to own....
