The 959 The Best Classic Porsche Ever......

no doubt, the driveline and electronics of the 959 were the best of the age and years ahead of their time. In those aspects it was phenomenal, I just can't help but admire the twin turbo v8 they dropped into F40, and performance that resulted from it.

If it were going in my garage, odds are i'd have the 959.

Im sorry.i dont say this often so listen to me.I flew off the handle because you say that a v8 car is better than a flat 6 car.There is a big horse power diffrence and also it is a Ferrari.Yes i do agree that the F40 is one of the best cars from the eighties BUT the porsche 959 is still the best.Im sorry about the statement i made and for any upset i have caused you.

Like the 8-Series, the 959 was ahead of its time in so many ways. It had all wheel drive with more than 400hp and 200mph in 1989! This IS the porsche which I would wanna have the most.

I think they are around 370? I will have to check, I just read an article in excellence about a guy bringing them over to the states.

i've heard of 959s fetching close to 600,000 dollars at auction, there weren't that many of them, so they are a very rare comodity.

I think after the Carrera RS of the early 70s and the 550Speedster of the fifties, 959 is the most sought after porsche.
