Racing legend Mario Andretti was no stranger to the world of high horsepower, and it will probably come as no surprise to learn that he was the original owner of this fire-breathing, and stunning looking, Porsche 935. If that beautiful blue paint doesn’t capture your imagination, then the 500hp on tap, complete with driver-adjustable turbo boost, certainly should. The Porsche is located in Miami, Florida, and is listed for sale here on eBay. Just for the record, the owner has set a BIN price of $375,000 for the Porsche, but the option is there to make an offer.

This Porsche started life as a 930 but has been pretty heavily updated by both Kremer and by DP Motorsport. The body modifications, which include the slant nose front end, shaved front fenders with air extraction vents, widened rear fenders with inter-cooler air inlets with horizontal strakes, flush fitting side mirrors, extended rocker panel sills, re-sculpted lower rear valence, and large rear tray spoiler, were all completed by DP Motorsport. The car has then been coated in stunning dark blue paint, with gold stripes. A DP Motorsport tag in the door jam states that the car was built for Mario Andretti. All of those lightweight body modifications, when combined with the gold striping and those enormous BBS 3-piece wheels, make for one stunning and tough looking car.

The already potent 930 engine was then pretty heavily breathed upon by Kremer, renowned worldwide for their expertise with Porsche products. The intercooler is a DP Motorsport custom item, but everything else is pure Kremer. That intercooler, when combined with Group B camshafts and a custom K27 turbocharger, produce a rather healthy 500hp. As previously stated, nestling between the seats is a knob which allows the driver to adjust the turbo boost. The engine bay presents really well, and it is amazing to consider that Porsche and Kremer are able to produce so much horsepower from a compact engine in such a confined space. Heat is always going to be the enemy, but this is aided by the location of an enormous engine oil cooler behind that equally enormous front spoiler.

The interior of the Porsche presents virtually faultlessly, and to a large extent, it is very typical of the standard 930 on which this car is based. Leather seat upholstery with power adjustment, typically clear and concise Porsche gauges, power windows, and plush carpeting are all par for the course. What is not typical of a 930 of the era is the fire extinguisher bolted to the passenger side floor, or the aftermarket CD player. That’s small change when compared to the leather-clad Momo wheel, the leather-clad roll bar, or the driver’s side Simpson racing harness. They are all indicators that this is a true driver’s car.

Some people love Porsches, while some people don’t. They are not a car that stirs passion in me, but I have total respect for them. The reliable levels of power that they produce and the way that they so efficiently and effectively utilize that power is just impossible to argue against. Porsche are selling more cars today than at any time in their entire manufacturing history. Wind the clock back 30 years or so, and seeing a Porsche on the road was a bit of a rarity. Today, they are a far more common sight and they don’t usually attract the sort of looks that they used to. This Porsche is an exception. If you owned this particular car, there is no doubt that it would attract more than its fair share of attention wherever it went. I have never harbored a great desire to own a Porsche, but I’d be willing to make an exception for this one!
