Porsche has showcased the 935 Clubsport in several custom liveries, but we haven’t got
the chance to see it with no paint on it whatsoever. Until now, that is. Why
would anyone want that, you ask? Well, it’s because of the way the 935
Clubsport is built, with the steel and aluminum body of the 911 GT2 RS on which
the 935 is based having been replaced and supplemented by carbon-fiber
composite parts (CFRP).
Everyone knows that
CFRP looks better than steel and aluminum, and the 935 Clubsport is solid
proof. The automaker posted several photos on its Facebook page that show how
raw and mean the 935 looks without the vintage Martini livery.
Obviously, the
carbon-fiber reinforced polymer does more than just make Porsche’s latest
supercar look cool; it also contributes to improved stability and keeps weight
to 1,380 kg. Factor in the twin-turbo 3.8-liter flat-six that
produces 690 HP, and you can begin to imagine how it must feel to be
behind the wheel of this monster.
The fortunate few
who can afford to splash € 701,948 (US$ 800,000) on a 935 Clubsport should
know that they won’t be able to drive it on public roads, just race tracks. Nor
will they be able to participate in a series, as it has not been homologated
for any.
Porsche Motorsport
will only build 77 units of the new 935, with the first deliveries expected to
begin this summer.
