PORSCHE 924 Sebring ’79

A limited edition to celebrate another great Porsche racing year.

Porsche celebrates another Championship Year with
CHAMPIONSHIP EDITION 924

1976 will go down in the record books as the greatest year in Porsche racing history. Championships in three categories.

The Porsche 935 ran away from a field full of tough competitors to bring home the Manufacturer’s World Championship Cup for production-based cars (Group 5). This makes the fourth year that Porsches have won this coveted honor.

The Porsche 936 stormed through the World Championship Sports Car circuit to win the Manufacturer’s World Championship Cup for sports cars (Group 6) with an incredible 7 victories in 7 starts.

And that’s not all. In North America the Porsche Turbo Carrera won the Trans-Am Championship series of eight races (Group 4).

Another impressive performance was Porsche’s stunning finish in the most grueling of all long-distance races —the 24-hour Le Mans—where a crack team of Porsche drivers won the race with an astounding 11-lap lead.

A great new Championship Edition Porsche.

To celebrate Porsche’s greatest racing year to date, a limited edition of the successful new Porsche 924 has been built.

Only 2.000 of these special cars are available to Porsche enthusiasts in the U.S.A. They feature special Racing White paint and Martini Racing stripes, echoing the look of the winning 935s and 936s, with extra wide 185/70 HR 14 tires on Racing White light alloy wheels, front and rear stabilizer bars, genuine leather-covered steering wheel, Martini Racing-striped headrests, front

seats with red corduroy inlays and blue piping, red carpeting throughout, a special commemorative World Champion console plaque, plus 3 stereo speakers (one in front, two in back), fully retractable antenna and FM noise suppression kit.

The Championship Edition 924 is a superb handling, high performance Porsche, built with typical Porsche care and craftsmanship.

Built for driving.

The interior of the 924 has the same professional quality as all Porsches – built for driving. As you settle yourself behind the wheel of the 924, you find reassuring signs of thoughtful design. Notice that panel surfaces have a non-reflecting matte finish. There are two major instrument groupings to monitor important functions. The main instruments include temperature and fuel level, tachometer and speedometer with trip odometer. All are set at eye level, cowled so they won’t reflect in the windshield at night’, and fitted with special glare-resistant conical lenses.

A separate center console houses the oil pressure and battery charge indicators, and a superbly accurate quartz-crystal chronometer, with sweep second hand. All controls and warning lights have been thoughtfully planned by designers who spend many hours behind the wheel. Once you’ve driven a Porsche 924 – you’ll know it was time well spent.

Other features included in the 924 limited edition: stereo speakers in both rear side panels, plus a speaker in the dashboard, along with antenna.
