An Icon Reimagined: the Porsche 935.

In 2018, at the historic “Rennsport Reunion” motorsport event at Laguna Seca Raceway in California, Porsche unveiled their homage to the icon that was the Porsche 935.
The Porsche 935 pays tribute to the marque’s 935/78 Le Mans racing car more commonly known as “Moby Dick” which utterly dominated endurance racing, capturing outright wins at historic races such as the 24 Hour Le Mans, 24 Hour Daytona, and the 12 Hours Sebring.
The designers and engineers at Porsche were given free rein to develop the most outrageous 911-based track car that they could possibly imagine, with their only caveat being that it evoked both the design and spirit of the legendary Porsche 935/78. As a result, the revised 935 replicated and honoured its predecessor with its streamlined extended rear, with a total length of 4.87 metres.
In addition, many of the details of the exterior are a salute to winning vehicles from the company’s esteemed motor racing history. For instance, the aerodynamically capped rims echo those of the 935/78, with the LED rear lights on the rear wing endplates adopted from the 919 Hybrid LMP1 race car. The side mirrors hail from the Le Mans-winning 911 RSR, with the exposed titanium tailpipes modelled on the Porsche 908 from 1968.
