Kickdown's Take
by Louis KalendruschatThis 924 is a real head-turner! It has been extensively converted into a Dakar Safari Porsche, setting it apart from other 924s. In addition, over €2,700 was recently invested in overhauling the fuel injection system and installing a new ignition system. A Porsche ready to drive right away, with an H-license plate, for anyone looking for something special.
