Italeri has reissued three of their Porsche kits. A 928s-4, 944s, and 911 Turbo. As a Porsche fan, I look forward to these kits.
The Porsche 928 was introduced in 1977. Made with a new body with a large tailgate, the new car was equipped with a new aluminum V8 engine with electronic fuel injection, capable of delivering
power of 235hp. Designed according to the formula "Transaxle", with front engine and rear gearbox, the car was also equipped with independent suspension and Weissach rear axle type, optimized
to reduce under stear. The S4 version was produced in 1986, and was characterized by a more powerful engine that delivered 330hp. This 928 kit features 86 parts on colored sprues. The 944 features 91 parts on precolored sprues.
The Porsche 944 was produced from 1982 to 1991 and was an evolution of the model 924 maintaining the aesthetic line. The car was originally equipped with a fuel injection engine from 2479 cc capable of
delivering power of 163 hp. and made according to the Transaxle concept (rear engine and front shifter). The 944 was produced in different versions with different engines and extensive redesign of the
interior in coupe and convertible configurations. In particular, the S variant, introduced in 1987, was equipped with a 16 valve engine generating 189hp and able to achieve speeds from 0 to 100 km / h in 7.2 seconds. Only 9800 were built.
The model 911 Turbo was introduced in 1975 with an engine of 2994 cc with the assistance of the turbocharger and intercooler could offer power of 260hp. Over the years a series of technical and stylistic
improvements were introduced that have made this car, characterized by broad wheel arches and the large wing, an authentic symbol of the ultimate sports cars. The model kit features 84 parts on precolored sprues.
All three model kits have full engine details.
