Still one of the most technically-advanced all wheel drive systems ever! An amazing machine, and tough competition for the Ferrari F40.

this car actually gave a rear to the car whose back i always disliked because of the rear. and the front of it looks a good 10-15 years ahead of its time in aesthetics. definately a good looking porsche in my book.

Or while you're at it, why don't you just say the a formula one car, or anything else that would beat it?... My point was, the Porsche 959 was direct competition to the Ferrari F40. Unfortunately for the designers in Stuttgart, the F40 consistently posted quicker lap times than its rival.

Canay, back in the day that was the nicest car on the street. That came out in the 80's and is still considered one of the best cars manufactured. The carerra GT is awsome but the 959 is a classic car and is still a supercar. Cars change every year with more technology, but the 959 didn't have all that so that is why it was and still is one of the best stock cars on the planet! And it does not look bad at all in my opinion.

I remember when this car came out I think I was like 15 or 16 and I just about soiled myself.I remember reading that if you put it in scale that the 959 had as much traction as a locomotive!Always has been one of my favorite Porsches and always will be,though right now it is behind the GT2 and Carrera GT.
