13B Rotary-Powered 1985 Renault R5 Turbo 2

The 1985 Renault R5 Turbo II, affectionately known as the "little bomb on wheels", is a distinctively engineered, rear-wheel-drive hot hatch manufactured in France. Powered by its unique 13B rotary engine that revs eagerly up to high RPM, this second iteration of the classic Group B rally car packs a punch with around 160 horsepower, propelling it from 0-60 mph in merely 6 seconds when new. Standing out amongst other vehicles on California's roadways in Indian Wells, its distinctive wedge-shaped bodywork and large rear wing give it an aerodynamic appearance that reflects its racing heritage. This particular example, residing in the US state of California with a postal code of 92210, showcases Renault's innovative engineering approach in creating an exciting, compact performance car from nearly four decades ago.
