The Porsche 935/78 was the final model of Porsche's 935, produced in 1978 purely for the Le Mans of that year. The 935 was only manufactured from 1976 until 1978 and was never built as a ordinary road car. The 935 existed as a motorsport evolution of Porsche's already successful 911 (sold as the Carrera in Europe) and was successful in delivering a victory at the 1979 24 Hours of Le Mans. The 935/78 version of the 935 was the end of the road for Porsche's evolved beast of the Carrera RSR. Unlike the Carrera upon which it was based, the 935/78 used a 3.2 Litre 845 Horsepower engine. Unlike most other Porsche Models, the 935/78 was right-hand drive only. The reason for this was to give the driver better visibility on right-hand corners, because the Le mans runs clockwise on the circuit. As t
