“ Many people want to buy a Porsche, but they just cannot afford to do so” – this was one of the main reasons behind developing a new model and introducing it in 1975. This was also the first model that had its engine mounted in the front and not in the rear. If you want to buy a cheap, economical and fast machine, you definitely should consider buying a used Porsche 924.
Due to the 1973 oil crisis and the trends of the 1970’s, the now used Porsche 924 was equipped with a considerably weaker engine than other models from the German manufacturer. But remember that“ weaker” doesn’t necessarily mean“ worse” – the most basic version had a 2. 0 litre fuel injected power plant, producing 95 horsepower in a version for the USA market. Due to the fact that in Europe any emissions equipment wasn’t demanded, models delivered were more powerful; making 125 horsepower on the same engine as the above mentioned. A used Porsche 924 can be also equipped with a real monster – a 2. 5 litre water cooled engine, which produces 225 horsepower! This is the most powerful mass produced version and this much power combined with a light weight of the vehicle generates a real breast capable of reaching 0 to 60 mph( 0 to 100 km/h )in about 6 seconds. There are even more powerful versions of a used Porsche 924, but there weren’t many of them, so today they are quite hard to find.
