What car looks like a Porsche 911, sounds like a Porsche 911, goes faster than a Porsche 911, but isn’t a Porsche 911? The answer to this not-so-ancient riddle is the Porsche 935. Slant-nosed, as big as a whale and very, oh so very turbocharged – the 935 was the quintessential Porsche race car of the 1970s and a car surpassing its 911 roots by a huge margin. And you can make them fast.
Beyond the 911-like body, the 935 was the first step towards the new direction for Porsche racing cars and the best car to ensure the position Porsche established with the 917, while also being a perfect test for exploring the potential of forced induction.
