The Le Mans featured uprated and lowered suspension (10mm at the front and 15mm rear) and ‘telephone dial’ wheels. It was available only in Alpine White or Black. with ‘Le Mans’ decals down each side. The interior boasted distinctive striped fabric seats and an electric sunroof as standard. 980 examples of the 924S Le Mans were built. ONLY 500 CAME TO THE USA! In 1988 specification the 924S was actually faster than its 944 cousin as it was lighter and had a more aerodynamic body style – probably not exactly what Porsche had wanted to achieve. LE MANS 924S special edition built to celebrate Porsche’s 12th outright win in the famous 24 Hour race. Between July and September 1987 a total of 980 LE Mans models were manufactured: 200 black and 50 white cars were sold in West Germany. 500 black (but no white) in the US. and 113 black and 117 white elsewhere in ‘Rest of the World’ markets. Paint finishes and interiors were only offered in two colour choices - Alpine White with Ochre/Grey detailing or Black with Turquoise detailing. The exterior side stripes were broken by scripted ‘LE Mans’ logos on the lower part of the door. while the rims of the holes in each wheel were in the appropriate Ochre or Turquoise. Inside. the cars featured sports seats. Upholstery was grey/ochre striped flannel cloth with ochre piping for Alpine White cars. or grey/turquoise with turquoise piping for Black cars. All the cars had the 360mm (14in) steering wheel. with. as a final flourish. the cloth door panels colour-coded to match the detail colours. All cars came with a 160 BHP engine plus an electric tilt/removable sunroof fitted as standard. It was also lowered 10mm (0. 39in) at the front and 15mm (0. 59in) at the rear. and fitted with stiffer springs and gas-filled shock absorbers all round. It was further given sport anti-roll bars with diameters of 21. 5mm (0. 85in) at the front but 20mm (0. 79in). rather than 14mm (0. 55in). at the rear. Wheels were ‘telephone dial’ cast alloy 6J x 15 at the front and 7J x 15 (at the rear). It has 21. 00 miles and has been garaged kept since Day one. It drives like new and will not need any maintenance for years to come except the usual annual oil change and recommended service. If you want the 924 the finest example then you buy this car.
