The Porsche 959 convertible will be put up for auction, which can be transformed into a speedster

The sale of an exclusive car existing in a single copy will be engaged in the auction house RM Sotheby’s. German engineers produced model 959 exclusively in the back of the compartment. The presented copy belonged to the racer Jurgen Lessig, who fell by car in a serious accident. After an accident, a broken sports car was sold to a new owner who decided not only to restore the car.

After the accident, the Porsche 959 was bought by another race car driver-Karl-Khaina Foystel. Instead of restoring the serial, the athlete, the athlete turned the compartment into a convertible equipped with a folding roof with an electric drive. For the car, a removable hard top was also made, which is stored in a separate case.

In addition, engineers created an additional low windshield for the sports car, which can be installed instead of the standard. In this case, the convertible turns into a classic speedster. The car drives a 2.8-liter biturbomotor in motion, the return of which is 450 horsepower.

The only one of the kind Porsche 959 was introduced to the public in 1989 as part of the Frankfurt car dealership. Now, for a unique sports car, auctionists plan to help out to one and a half million dollars.

Last summer, the only Ferrari F40 in the world with the V12 motor was put up for trading. For an exclusive supercar, they asked for at least 700 thousand dollars.
