Interesting to compare with the 924 Baustufe 1 which is also at display at the Porsche Museum.



I have the theory that they decided rather late in the development to move the motor to the front. This would explain the big butt and the air vents.



I wouldn't be surprised if the 924 design started off with the EA 266 project!

You're not alone . :-). Looks like the Porsche version of the AMC Pacer...and orange was a very common color for Pacers.

Hard to believe such ugliness and beauty come from the same gene pool...

Great photos. Sad the turbo never became mainstream. Would be interested to see how the rear engined 924 drove.
