The one (of three) that competed, and won in 1984 were converted 911s, referred to as the 953, using a simple AWD-system and a significantly raised and reinforced suspension. The following year the 959 was finished and ready to go, but it ended in disappointment. In 1986 however they scored a 1-2 with two of the three factory cars entered... 953 with a 959 in the background:I love off-roading 911s. What other supercar gets to compete in rally?
While not strictly a 911, I can't forget the Rally Dakar 959 (though I do believe these were 911s converted to 959). Let's see an F40 try that.
It's amazing how that video can make "as low as the high threes" seem reasonable and achievable.
Orange is still the best color:
