AUTOart 1:18 Porsche 959 Diecast Model

When it was introduced, the twin-turbocharged 959 was the world's fastest street-legal production car, boasting a top speed of 195 miles per hour (314 km/h), with the sport model capable of reaching 197 miles per hour (317 km/h). During its production run it was hailed as the most technologically advanced road-going sports car ever built, and forerunner of all future super cars. It was one of the first high-performance vehicles with all-wheel drive, providing the basis for Porsche's first all-wheel drive Carrera 4 model. Its performance convinced Porsche executives to make all-wheel drive standard on all 911 Turbos starting with the 993. In 2004, Sports Car International named the 959 number one on its list of Top Sports Cars of the 1980s.

This diecast model car is manufactured in 1:18 Scale. The model is an accurate replica with many operating features including moving and workable parts.

The model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish. The undercarriage, suspension, brakes, and exhaust are nicely replicated.
