JAKARTA - The 1980s were one of the golden ages for German manufacturer Porsche in the supercar segment. At that time they competed with Ferrari. Porsche has always spawned supercar production that has been remembered until now.

One of Porsche's legendary supercars is Porsche 959. However, many do not know that Porsche has worked on the prototype of the Porsche 959 model, namely 959 Sport which is claimed to be the fastest model.

Known as "F9", Porsche 959 Sport has a lighter weight of 200 kg than other variants. This is one of the things that makes it have a fast and agile performance.

This agile performance is also supported by a kitchen runway. 959 Sport offers high performance thanks to the flat-six twin-turbo engine, which makes it drain to 508 dk. In contrast to the other 959 variants which can only waste 450 dk, reported by Motor1, Sunday, April 16.

With the all-wheel drive system (AWD), Porsche 959 Sport can go from 0 to 100 km/h within 3.6 seconds which of course this result became the fastest in its time.

Other differences compared to standard Porsche 959, 959 Sports are equipped with double exhaust, different wing shapes, and limitations to the front wiper system.

Currently, Porsche 959 Sport is on Girardo & Co's selling list at an undisclosed price. If 959 standards cost 1.5 million to 2 million US dollars (around Rp22.1 billion - Rp29.5 billion), then this version of Sport will be priced more expensive.
