Porsche 911 IMSA GTU Race Car
The Porsche 911 IMSA GTU Race Car, a legendary racing machine from the 1970s, is a distinct and formidable vehicle. Manufactured in 1973 by Porsche, this classic racer bears the iconic make and model that have become synonymous with German automotive engineering excellence. The car was meticulously designed for the track, with its distinctive livery featuring the number '2' prominently displayed on both sides, a testament to its racing lineage. Its body is lightweight with fiberglass doors and lids made by coach builder Intermeccanica, contributing to its agility on the circuit. Powered by a 2.7-liter flat-six engine, it delivers approximately 245 horsepower, pushing it from 0-60 mph in around five seconds before reaching a top speed of over 160 mph. The car's suspension is tuned for track days, with independent front and rear suspension, sway bars both front and rear, and 9-inch wide wheels shod in racing slicks to maintain grip during spirited driving. Inside the cabin, you'll find lightweight racing seats, a roll bar, and a minimalistic dash designed around functionality over ornamentation - all characteristic features of a purpose-built race car from Porsche's classic era.
