Xmas Abomination 86 targa V8 'Rally Car'

For those with highly discriminating taste for the totally strange and most certainly lethal, check out this red sled. Best of all it's available on CL for some lucky boy or girl.



1985 Porsche Carrera Targa Rally car V-8


No doubt the future winner of the "Right Stance" award.

Merry Xmas

Valued at $30k but a 'critic' put it in yahoo news so asking price is $35k? 'Prefer' a trade for a Z06?

I 'prefer' that my dog s**t gold bricks but that doesn't mean I'll get what I want. That is too fugly. I mean funny.

You can't buy happiness, but you can buy car parts which is kind of the same thing.

Ugh...

This made working on Christmas even worse! Here's to the beloved flat six!
Nothing wrong with a V8, just keep them where they belong!!!

At least this is a purpose built car.
If he made a video thrashing it in the trails, everyone would be loving it.
Yes, it will not appeal to diaper polishing collectors, like many of us.

I do find flared unfilled wheel arches to be the single ugliest mod on the planet.
It is a visceral reaction that is of the highest offense.

Too bad to see a 350 in a 911 and then expect a good price for it when for sale. Best of luck, buddy.

my uncle brought a photo copy of the CL add to xmas to share with me... we hade a good chuckle.

regarding the car? could be fun in a baja bug sort of way at a place like Pismo beach. sand or less than optimum traction might be just what a 915 with a v-8 attached needed to last at all... a rallye car, heck ya.

$30k fun? not close

Agreed, it seems like a fun dirt toy, but it has lost much of its collector vintage premium.
Selling price should reflect the cost it would take to return to stock, which it clearly does not, at $30k.
I would rather buy a $5k Miata or E30 that is dirt prepped, just the same. Or maybe part out value.
