Description
At Gallery Aaldering, we believe that a Porsche is more than just a car; it’s one of the most iconic automotive brands of all time. This 1981 Porsche 924 Carrera GTS Club Sport takes exclusivity to the next level. With only fifteen units ever built, it is one of the rarest Porsche’s ever produced. Finished in Indisch rot and with only 36, 000 kilometers, this car is in exceptional condition and still retains its original paint. For collectors, this rare and iconic Porsche represents a dream come true and a fantastic investment opportunity.
Built for the Racetrack
The Club Sport, of which Porsche built only 15 examples, stands out with its fiberglass front fenders and widened rear wheel arches, making the model approximately 50 mm wider. This design allowed for broader Fuchs wheels, enhancing both its striking appearance and its track performance.
In line with Porsche’s racing intent, the Club Sport’s weight was drastically reduced to just 1, 045 kg. This was achieved with fixed headlights under Perspex covers, aluminum trailing arms replacing steel ones, and lightweight plastic rear window and fixed side windows with sliding panels.
To further support its performance, Porsche equipped the Club Sport with Bilstein coil springs and powerful ventilated and perforated brakes sourced from the Porsche 911 Turbo. These upgrades make the Club Sport a technological marvel, delivering exceptional precision and control on both the track and the road.
A true homologation special, designed for Group 4 racing, this Porsche features an enlarged intercooler that produces 270 hp and reaches a top speed of 260 km/ h. At its release, the Club Sport was the fastest production car Porsche had ever built. Accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in just 4. 2 seconds and reaching 100 mph in 10 seconds, this machine’s capabilities speak for themselves.
The Legendary Porsche 924 Carrera GTS
Developed to meet FIA Group 4 requirements, the Porsche 924 Carrera GTS was designed to transform the 924 series into a genuine racing legend. It left a significant mark at the 1981 24 Hours of Le Mans, finishing in 6th, 12th, and 13th place. The Club Sport variant, with its additional power and exclusivity, has become a holy grail for collectors.
Only 36, 000 Kilometers with Full Documentation
This Porsche has an exceptionally low mileage of just 36, 000 kilometers, reflected in every detail of the car. It comes with an official Porsche Geburtsurkunde and original manuals, confirming its authenticity and rarity. Delivered in 1981 by Porsche Friedrich Scholz in Germany, its provenance is well-documented.
Collector’s Quality: Impeccable Condition
With its stunning original paint, this Porsche is a testament to quality. Entirely original and in immaculate condition, the exterior is a feast for the eyes. The interior is equally impressive, also entirely original and exceptionally well-preserved. Every detail, from the wheels to the smallest accents, underscores the excellence of this example. It drives like a dream, offering the lightweight performance, purity, and precision that define Porsche’s legendary reputation.
