You're Welcome!

Mine as well, and in my opinion it's a highly under-rated vehicle. The late 80's supercar era was pretty much dominated by the F40 and it was a great vehicle, but as this article describes the 959 was a technological masterpeice

Re: The Essential Guide - 959, GT Purely

I just read it, very interesting read. No other manufacturer has an equally striking Story as Porsche. During the 70s and 80s Porsche was on the edge of becoming broke. Never in a million years did anyone at that time beleive that Porsche would 25-35years later own almost 30% of VW and stand proud on its own feet. Porsche is a very walthy company for being a manufacturer who only has 3 models in their line up.
