About the Porsche 935 Turbo 24 Hours of Daytona 1979 Exoto 1:18

TL;DR: Exoto's 1:18 diecast Porsche 935 Turbo reproduces a competitor from the 24 Hours of Daytona in 1979, when the 935's turbocharged flat-six and flared silhouette dominated Group 5 racing. Doors, hood and trunk all open. A significant piece for endurance racing and Porsche motorsport collections.

The 935 turned Porsche's 911 platform into one of the most dominant silhouette racers of the late 1970s, and its presence at Daytona in 1979 places this model in the thick of the era that defined turbocharged endurance racing.

Opening Panels and Diecast Detail on a Group 5 Racer

This casting opens at the doors, hood and trunk, a meaningful feature on a 935 since it reveals both the stripped-down racing cockpit and the turbocharged flat-six engine bay that made this car so fearsome on long straights. Exoto builds in zinc alloy, giving the shell real weight that suits a subject built around raw mechanical aggression. The hinges carry the wider tolerances an articulated metal body requires, settling into place with genuine resistance rather than swinging freely, a fair trade for the mechanical access this build offers. The 935's dramatically flared arches and whale-tail rear wing demand sharp panel definition, and Exoto's diecast work at this tier typically holds that flare geometry with crisp, well-defined edges alongside accurate livery and sponsor decal application.

A Landmark Racer for Endurance Collections

Daytona's 24-hour race has long been one of American endurance racing's most demanding tests, and a 935 entrant from 1979 sits right in the model's most competitive stretch, when it was winning races across multiple continents against increasingly organized rivals. This piece works well alongside other Group 5 and silhouette-class racers from the same period, illustrating just how far manufacturers pushed production-based platforms once turbocharging entered the picture. The opening panels add real value here, letting the stripped interior and turbo plumbing take center stage. At roughly 22cm, it holds a wide, flared racing footprint. For any collector building an endurance racing or Porsche motorsport display, this 935 is a strong, historically grounded choice.
