So, I was waiting for delivery of my C4s Yesterday and I was strolling around the dealership and came across this GEM tucked away in the in the corner of the service department.... This belongs to a Prince from Saudi Arabia and only has 503KM on the clock!!!!!!!!

Long ago I drove a red 959 that belonged to the guy who invented the Creepy Crawlie pool cleaner... truth be told, its not all that impressive... Atleast not today, it felt like a 1991 Turbo with about the power of a stock 1996 993TT.

I'll be the first one to say it then. I just think it's sad that such a great piece of engineering hasn't been driven more.

Do you know that you are talking about 1986-1988 production car, and it is the first production car that broke the 300 km/h range with small 2.8 liter twin turbo engine.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>
<o></o>
As much you read about it as much you will love it.<o></o>
<o></o>
Just for your information the F40 which was head to head with the 959 equipped with V8 twin turbo 3 liter engine and produce 470hp which the small engine from 959 produce 450<o></o>
