The latest version of the Porsche 935 made its official debut in the fall of 2018 at the Laguna Seca Raceway in California during the Rennsport Reunion VI. This unveiling was timed to celebrate Porsche’s 70th anniversary and pays homage to the original 935 race car, which played a significant role in Porsche’s motorsports success by winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The 935/19, limited to just 77 units, was exclusively available to Porsche’s top clients, and they could choose from eight different wraps inspired by classic racing liveries.
Inspired by the iconic 1978 935 Moby Dick endurance racer and based on the final 911 GT2 RS, the modern 935 was manufactured in a limited run of 77 units. Each unit features a single Recaro bucket seat, a complete roll cage, and a powerful 700 hp twin-turbo flat-six engine that drives the rear wheels through a seven-speed PDK automatic transmission.
In addition to its striking appearance, the Porsche 935 places a strong emphasis on functionality. Its dynamic bodywork underwent meticulous aerodynamic refinement to enhance stability and overall performance. As a result, the Porsche 935/19 excels in both cornering and straight-line acceleration, going from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.5 seconds and achieving a top speed of 211 mph.
