Front-engined, water-cooled, a suitable luggage compartment. The front-engined models proved that Porsche was capable of doing something different.
The 924, as the first exponent of Zuffenhausen's new generation of sports cars, had the toughest task: it had to do everything right, convincing brand enthusiasts, new buyers and critics that the project was correct.
The 924 did it. With its turbocharged and large four-cylinder engine, it proved to be a true sports and competition car, and even a small Grand Turismo for connoisseurs.
It was even able to compete successfully in rallies and circuit races, and put an exclamation mark on Le Mans. On this occasion, the 924 proved that, despite being developed by Volkswagen, it rightly carried the Porsche name.
The automotive journalist and editor-in-chief of PORSCHE FAHRER, Jan-Henrik Much, traces its history, development and wealth of variants in this extremely accurate monograph: starting with the 924, via the Turbo version, through to the Carrera GT and GTS and the special models that are so sought-after today.
Porsche 924 - Die perfekte Balance has 194 pages and a wealth of photographs, with many previously unpublished photos taken especially for this book.
