Can you tell us any more about the engine?
I just have the invoice on the engine 2275 High Performance
3200 was the cost in 1990
I know very little about these engines other than the dual webers
I will look in my packet for more info
This is the nicest 959 replica and just my .02

I was thinking the same thing. The silver color really makes it. Although I can't explain why this car does but it just looks good. And I've never really been a fan of this reproduction.
I always thought it was the 359?
No matter. It is the nicest one of it's kind I've seen too.
Seems we all have the same opinion, I like it.

What kind of wheels are those and do you have a top for it?
Those are Cayman wheels off of a 2007.....I don't have a top...the 356 speedster top is the same. I can get a top made locally for addition cost.
im seeing a porsche turbo lurking in ur garage, silver also
CMC called it a 359 - a replica of the original 959. The silver does look sharp - most seem to be red.
Hate to be redundant, but I've never been a fan of these either, but I am of this one.

As people have said- great looking car!
Just so you know- those are dual kadrons pictured in the engine shot, not dual Webers. Kadrons are single barreled carburetors, and usually found on milder, small (sub 2 liter) engines. How high does it rev before the power falls off?
Good eye, @barncobob
Is there a sale on ? Two of them ?
