About the Porsche 924 Carrera GT

The 924 Carrera GT (Type 937) was developed to homologate the 924 for Group 4 competition, bridging the gap between the standard Turbo and the GTR race car. It features distinctive polyurethane wide-body arches, a functional hood scoop for the top-mounted intercooler, and Fuchs alloy wheels. The 2.0-litre engine was heavily revised with a higher compression ratio and a larger KKK turbocharger, producing 210 hp. It remains one of the most sought-after front-engined Porsches due to its rarity, balanced transaxle handling, and direct motorsport lineage.
