Hey guys, wow!! We just acquired this amazing 1988 959 Komfort in Silver over Triple Grey.I can not say enough about this car, I have been with Porsche for about 10 years now and I can say that I have never had the pleasure of seeing one of these outside of pictures and videos, it is so exciting to have a part of Porsches history here. Not to many Porsche salesmen or Porsche enthusiasts can say that they have had the opportunity to be around, much less drive a car like this but now I can!From Wikipedia:When it was introduced, the twin-turbocharged 959 was the world's fastest street-legal production car, boasting a top speed of 195 miles per hour (314 km/h), with the sport model capable of reaching 197 miles per hour (317 km/h). During its production run it was hailed as the most technologically advanced road-going sports car ever built, and forerunner of all future super cars. It was one of the first high-performance vehicles with all-wheel drive, providing the basis for Porsche's first all-wheel drive Carrera 4 model. Its performance convinced Porsche executives to make all-wheel drive standard on all 911 Turbos starting with the 993. In 2004, Sports Car International named the 959 number one on its list of Top Sports Cars of the 1980s.The road version of the 959 debuted at the 1985 Frankfurt Motor Show as a 1986 model, but numerous issues delayed production by more than a year. The car was manufactured in two levels of trim, "Sport" and "Komfort", corresponding to the race version and the road version. First customer deliveries of the 959 street variant began in 1987, and the car debuted at a cost of US $225,000 per unit, still less than half what it cost Porsche to build each one. Production ended in 1988 with 292 959s from the assembly line. In total, 337 cars were built, including 37 prototypes and pre-production models. At least one 959 and one 961 remain in the Porsche historic hall in Stuttgart, Germany.This 5 owner all original car is in beautiful condition with no accidents or paintwork and lived most of its life in Europe before coming to the United States and eventually residing here in Houston Texas.The odometer shows the original 47,609 km which equals 29,582 miles.We have all of the original manuals, stamped service books, service history, tools and compressor.Asking $1,125,000Please feel free to PM, call, text or email with any inquiries..John
