Amazing TAG 911 1.5 L F1 Turbo Engine

Wow if this isn't the coolest 911 ever built that I have no idea what is.

This was the car Porsche tested the 1.5 litre TAG F1 engines in. McLaren own it.

What no love for this car, IMO this is the most awesome 911 Porsche have ever built, think about it, this car probably has 800hp, very light weight, nothing Porsche makes today is anything like as awesome as this.

It's cool, but sort of like the V8 test cars, not really a 911. I'm sure it's valuable, but a real RSR is still cooler.

Probably my age, but I'd also prefer a 959.

Yep, still cool. Let's be honest, any car with an F1 engine in it would be cool. Even the silly X5 with the LeMans motor in it is pretty cool.

Personally, I want an E30 wagon with the S65 in it.
