Porsche 959 in Dallas

While buying a few odds and ends at Boardwalk Porsche the parts guys asked if I had seen the 959. This car belongs to a Saudi prince who stopped at Boardwalk during the Gumball 3000 and later shipped his 959 to Dallas for service. Don't see one of these every day!

Truly a beautiful style and I wish Porsche had stuck with it and carried the design forward. Nice treat to be able to see one up close and personal. Thanks for the photos.

WOW! Very rare and very $$$$. Easily a +$400,000 Porsche. Some of the technology in the 959 made it to my 993 Turbo.
