Covering one more base, in 1976 Porsche built the 935 with the '5' for the GT/5 class. Porsche upped the displacement to 3.3 liters and added twin turbos that pushed the horsepower to 845. Porsche built about 40 units for privateers along with the Martini sponsored factory racers. Dominant in its class, it won 123 of 370 that it entered. In 1979, it won Le Mans overall and was successfully raced until 1981 when the following year, the FIA changed the entire GT classifications. This Exoto model is finished in Standox Chromillusion Avus Galaxy.

It looks like it weighs a lot and has a hefty parts count 👍
