Collector Status: 1980 Porsche 924 Turbo

You've probably noticed a few 924s on these pages recently, and you might say "what's with all the 924s guys, these things are terrible?"  As correct as you might be in your assessment, there will also come a time in the next year or so when you say "why didn't I buy that low mile Porsche 924 back when it was affordable and the schmucks at Daily Turismo were always featuring them?"  This is not an I-told-you-so moment, as much as it is an I'm-going-to-tell-you-so.  Find this 1980 Porsche 924 Turbo here on eBay bidding for $3,500 reserve-not-met in Coon Valley, WI with 5 days to go.

10k: Silver Surfer: 1980 Porsche 924 Turbo, 931

 The Porsche 924 was first released in 1976 and in the ensuing years, countless negative press has been heaped on the Audi van/sedan engine used to power the lithe little coupe.  In 1979 Porsche was kind enough to introduce a turbocharged version with a few more ponies and a sweet NACA duct on the hood for extra emphasis.  Think of it as the automotive styling equivalent of an exclamation point.  924.  924 Turbo! Find this 1980 Porsche 924 Turbo currently bidding for $3,454 reserve-not-met with 6 days to go.
