What Makes The Porsche 992 Dakar So Expensive?

The Porsche 992 Dakar is a car that pays homage to Porsche’s victorious history in the Paris-Dakar rally, where they clinched victory with the Porsche 953. This model, produced in a limited run of 2,500 units, celebrates that historic win and embodies Porsche’s legacy in rallying.

Recently, Harry Metcalfe from Harry’s garage on YouTube explores this off-road supercar which got him confused because of its certain aspects. Unlike the GT3 series he’s accustomed to, the 9911 is based on the Porsche GTS platform. Equipped with a twin-turbo 3-liter engine boasting 480 horsepower, it lacks the high-revving engine characteristic of the GT3.

Checkout the video below to see if the Porsche 992 Dakar’ premium price makes a lot of sense today and if it is a better option compared to another off-road supercar from Lamborghini.
