Tamiya 24065 - 1/24 Scale Porsche 959 Model Kit - Precision Scale Replica  [24065]

What the Tamiya 1/24 Porsche 959 kit offers

The Tamiya 1/24 Porsche 959 model kit provides a detailed project for modellers keen on vintage performance cars. Debuting at the 1983 Frankfurt Auto Show, the 959 earned its reputation by blending advanced race-derived technology with everyday usability. This miniature pays tribute to that legacy, remembering the cars exploits in rally and endurance racing.

Technical profile and race history

The Porsche 959 used a 2848cc flat-six engine with combined air and liquid cooling, DOHC heads and twin turbos, achieving speeds in excess of 300 km/h while remaining controllable on public roads. The kit captures the mechanical look and proportion of the original in compact form.

Kit contents and model detail

Included are unassembled plastic components on sprue trees, finished in silver with separate clear parts for windows. The assembly features full engine replication, authentic suspension and cabin fittings, steerable front wheels plus a rear spoiler. The hollow spoke wheels and low-profile tyres are faithfully represented for an accurate display piece.
