Vehicle description

Model history:

The Porsche 924, a sports car which was built from 1975 to 1988. It was marketed as the successor to the VW Porsche 914 and below the 911 as an "entry-level" Porsche for young people and families. The 924 was Porsche's first car with a water-cooled front engine and the transaxle drive concept. Because of its Volkswagen-derived components, such as the 2-liter engine, the model was often not considered a full Porsche sports car. As a result of the years, the car was modified again and again. For example, starting in 1977, the car was offered with a manual transmission or a three-speed automatic. A year later, several improvements were made: a hot-dip galvanized engine on both sides, two pressure accumulators and an additional solenoid valve to prevent starting difficulties when the engine was warm, a muffler with an oval tailpipe and a larger water tank. In 1979, the series was expanded by the more powerful 924 Turbo model. Another year later, the four-speed manual transmission was dropped in favor of a standard five-speed. In 1980, the 924 was given a similar visual and technical makeover to the Turbo. This included a sports package with anti-roll bars and Koni shock absorbers on the front and rear axles, as well as internally ventilated brake discs at the front. In 1981, side blinker lights were added as standard in the front fenders. The last vehicles were produced under the S-model, until 1988 the production was stopped.
