That's right! Another fantastic auction brought to you by the WireNut. You asked for it. You got it. You wanted an all-wheel-drive Rothmans Rally Car and here it is. You may remember July of 2010 when I sold my 2-wheel-drive 1980 Rothmans Rally Car to GoPro for upwards of $70,000 here on eBay. Although that car was stunning in everyway I knew I needed something more. I searched the country high and low for the perfect donor and finally found an accident free, perfectly maintained, weekend driver, pilot owned, all original with every factory option 1989 1/2 Porsche 964 C4. Meet AWD Paris... She is an absolutely stunning freshly completed Porsche 911 Paris, Alger, Dakar Winning 953 Off Road Rally Tribute Car that has been painstakingly built over the last year. I've spent thousands and thousands of hours building her. She was built as a tribute to the winning Porsche 953 raced from Paris to Dakar in 1984 Piloted by Rene Metge and Dominique Lemoyne. Paris originally started life as a 1989 1/2 Porsche 964 Carrera 4 in PERFECT condition. She is perfectly street legal and plated and titled in Illinois. From my understanding there were only three (3) of these factory cars, two (2) owned by Porsche and one in private hands. Although this is a reproduction, most observers will swear this is the real deal... Car was built with the intention of being a daily driver or a weekend warrior which means it has some very key options. -Cruise Control-Sunroof-Climate Control-Power Mirrors-Power Locks-Power Windows-Differential Lock-ABS-Every factory option available. - Details on Paris Tires- Michelin ZEL 70's 16/65-15 mounted on authentic Porsche rims.
