Vehicle Overview
See description for 80+ photos and videoStrosek & Gemballa Coachwork | Lindsey Racing / A&C Underground Built Engine | Approx. 1,500 Miles Since Body-Off Restoration
Celebrity Cars is proud to present this one-of-a-kind 1987 Porsche 944 Turbo, acquired from a longtime customer of ours who has owned it since new. In the 1980s, a small circle of German tuners, including Strosek, Gemballa, and a handful of others, were reimagining what a Porsche could look like, and their work has become as collectible today as the cars underneath it. This 951 brings that era back to life, executed to a standard the period cars never saw: a complete body, interior and engine restoration with a documented investment of more than $70,000 above the purchase price of the car, and only about 1,500 miles driven since.
The bodywork pairs a Strosek nose with Gemballa rear treatment, finished in its original factory color of Nautic Blue Metallic. It is one of the rarest colors offered on the 1987 944 Turbo, and a shade that looks entirely different in sunlight than it does under showroom lights. The car now sits on a fresh set of 911/964 Cup 1 RS "Speedline" style 18-inch wheels wrapped in brand-new Sumitomo HTR Z5 tires, staggered 285/30 in the rear and 215/40 up front. The classic Cup design suits the Strosek/Gemballa lines perfectly and gives the car a period-correct, purposeful stance. Behind them sit oversized rotors with custom calipers. Other details continue throughout: a custom rear window, 968-style door handles, and the factory moonroof retained from new. This is the kind of car that draws a crowd at a show field, then draws a second crowd when the hood comes up.
Inside, the cabin was built to be lived in, not just photographed. The like-new interior is fully Dynamatted for a quiet, refined ride, trimmed in custom Italian Alcantara, and finished with hand-painted dashboard bezels and a bespoke dash design. A modern Alpine Bluetooth head unit handles audio without disrupting the period look. The instrument cluster was rebuilt by North Hollywood Speedometer and set to zero when the restoration was completed. The roughly 1,500 miles showing reflect post-restoration use only, not the car's lifetime mileage, and all of it is documented.
Mechanically, this is where the car separates itself from a cosmetic build. The original numbers-matching block was fully reworked by A&C Underground, Lindsey Racing, and Trophy Performance. Bored, stroked, and fed by an oversized turbocharger through the five-speed manual, it delivers the kind of mid-range shove a stock 951 only hints at. Since the build was finished, the car has been kept in climate-controlled storage, and it comes with an extensive binder of detailed receipts covering the entire restoration.
