The Porsche 959 represented the extreme development of the 911 concept of the 1980s. As early as 1983, Porsche had announced a car complying with Group B regulations for the world rally championship. Porsche did not follow through on this sporting program but the study of the project continued and gave life to the 959, an extraordinary car that reproduced the lines of the 911 in the passenger compartment, however proposing such a quantity of technological innovations as to leave a permanent trace in the automotive history. Equipped with all-wheel drive, the 959 was powered by a 2849cc 460bhp biturbo engine. There was a racing use of the 959 by the Works: in the raids (obviously the Paris-Dakar) and also at Le Mans, where the car, called 961, was entered in the GTX category (Gran Turismo Sperimentale) in the 1986 and 1987 editions.
AutoCult was founded in early 2015 by a group with years of experience in the car modeling industry. The brand is dedicated to the creation of now forgotten cars, which stand out for their shape or their innovative construction. The attention is not limited to the model model alone, but the story behind each car is also highlighted and told to collectors. The models are handcrafted in resin, with a limited run of 333 examples. At the end of each year autocult publishes a book containing all the detailed and illustrated stories of the models released. Thanks to its in-depth knowledge of classic modeling, the company can create models without the aid of CAD.
