Overview

Introduction

The 1981 Porsche 924 Carrera GT Clubsport is a rare and highly sought-after collector's item, with only 15 examples of this model produced. This particular vehicle has a mere 40 original miles and boasts an extensive documentation of paperwork and service records, including a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity.

History and Development

The Porsche 924 was initially developed between Volkswagen and Porsche to replace the 912 and 914 models. It was designed with a front engine and rear wheel drive layout, making it Porsche's first road-going front engine production configuration. The 924 was revealed in 1975, featuring a 4-cylinder normally aspirated engine, with a turbocharged version introduced three years later. In 1981, Porsche created the 924 Carrera GTS variant, which was 330 pounds lighter and featured an upgraded engine producing 210 HP. The Carrera GTS Club Sport was a further development, with a larger 2.0L 270HP engine and additional oil coolers, making it one of the fastest production cars Porsche had ever built at the time.

Provenance and Condition

This example was hand-built and completed on 11 February 1981 at the Weissach facility, then shipped to Bob Hagestad Porsche-Audi in Denver, Colorado. It was sold to its first owner, Dr. William Jackson, a well-known Porsche collector, in 1982. The vehicle has had several owners since, including John Dixon at the Taj Ma Garaj in Dayton, Ohio, and has been recently serviced in 2021. It is now presented with a concours level detail, including a complete mechanical inspection, services as needed, and a show level finish.

Availability and Accessories

This rare and desirable 924 Carrera GTS Club Sport is supplied with a tool kit, spare wheel, jack, factory literature, dealer correspondence, COA, and a file of service receipts. With its incredibly low mileage, this truly rare and exciting Porsche collectible is not to be overlooked.
