See for information in English down belowPorsche 924 Carrera GT 1981- Rare: number 331 of a total of 406 produced- Comprehensive and original documentation available- Original purchase invoice from 1981 + Porsche birth certificate available- Beautiful color 'Indian Rot/Guards Red' and famous forged 'Fuchs' rims- 210 hp strong turbo engine- Newly delivered in Germany and in total had only 3 owners.- Service book present- Major service including timing belt at 129,577 km Although the Porsche 924 is known as a 'cheap' Porsche, the limited Carrera GT cost a whopping 108,800 guilders new in 1981. Only the 930 Turbo cost more. This example - no. 331 of only 406 built - was delivered on April 2, 1981 by 'Gottfried Schultz Sportwagen GmbH & Co' in Essen, Germany. The original purchase invoice is still present! The car was serviced at the same dealer until 1988 and was then ïmported to the Netherlands. The first Dutch owner sold the Porsche only in 2017 to the last owner: a true Porsche enthusiast with a collection of special and rare Porsche's. With its bright red color 'Indian Rot/Guards Red' (recently fully professionally polished), forged black Fuchs rims, Carrera GT decals and knocked-out wheel arches, it is a striking and tough appearance. The Porsche decals under the doors are original and very rare. Distinctive options include a digital radio, power door mirrors and a rear window wiper. A service was performed in 2021 at a mileage of 129,577 km where the timing belt was replaced. The following original documentation is present with the car: a German sales brochure of the 924 Carrera GT from 1980, the delivery invoice, the service booklet and maintenance booklet, the workshop manual and the Dutch import papers from 1988.The condition is very nice with a damage-free history, no rust and good rubbers. The mileage is relatively low. A good copy is becoming increasingly scarce and is popular among collectors, prices are therefore rising and that makes the car interesting for investors.General information about the 924 Carrera GTIn the "70s Porsche had less and less confidence in the "old-fashioned" 911 and other models had to take over the success of this model. In 1976, therefore, the affordable 924 was introduced as the successor to the 914, which was partnered with Audi. The model provided a needed increase in sales at the time. Without this model, Porsche would probably not exist today.... To give the 924 with Audi engine a sportier image, the Turbo version was introduced and Porsche stepped into the GT3 with a racing version. This did require more than 400 examples to be built, and so the Carrera GT was born. This model has a stripped-down and lighter body, and finely tuned suspension and an uprated and improved engine: the turbocharged 2-liter engine produces 210 hp, achieving a top speed of 240 km/h and acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 6.7 seconds. This made the lightweight (1,143 kg) 924 even faster than the atmospheric 911 SC of the time! It came only in silver, black and red of which red was the most sought after color.Porsche 924 Carrera GT 1981- Rare: number 331 of total 406 produced- Comprehensive and original documentation available- Original purchase invoice from 1981 + Porsche birth certificate present- Beautiful color 'Indian Rot/Guards Red' and famous forged 'Fuchs' rims- 210 hp strong turbo engine- Delivered new in Germany and had only 3 owners in total.- Service booklet available- Major service including timing belt at 129,577 km Although the Porsche 924 is known as a 'cheap' Porsche, the limited Carrera GT cost a whopping 108,800 guilders new in 1981.
