Porsche 924 Turbo Light Green & Dark Green MCG 1:18 MCG18660 Diecast
1 / 6
MCG's 1:18 diecast Porsche 924 Turbo reproduces the 1979 coupe in an unusual light-green-over-dark-green scheme, a sealed one-piece body with correctly recessed intercooler hood vents and front-engine, rear-transaxle proportions. Built on Porsche's accessible, VW-Audi-shared platform, the 924 Turbo later lent its layout to the Carrera GT racer, making this a focused entry point for a transaxle-era Porsche collection.

About the Porsche 924 Turbo Light Green & Dark Green MCG 1:18

TL;DR: MCG's 1:18 diecast Porsche 924 Turbo reproduces the 1979 coupe in light green over dark green, a sealed one-piece body with correct front-engine, rear-transaxle proportions and recessed hood-vent detailing. A focused entry point for collectors building a transaxle-era Porsche shelf.

Porsche built the 924 as its most accessible model, a front-engine coupe developed with Volkswagen and Audi components to reach buyers the air-cooled 911 never could. The Turbo version, arriving for 1979, added real performance without abandoning that accessible brief. MCG's 1:18 casting wears an unusual two-tone green scheme over the Turbo's distinctive hood vents.

MCG's 924 Turbo Casting in 1:18

A Sealed Body and the Turbo's Hood Vents

The 924 Turbo's most visible giveaway over the naturally aspirated car is its hood-mounted intercooler vent, and MCG casts that detail with a genuinely recessed opening rather than a flat painted outline, the kind of attention that separates a specialist release from a toy-grade casting. The body is a single fixed shell with no opening doors, hood, or hatch, and for a wedge-shaped coupe defined by clean, uninterrupted surfacing, that construction works in the model's favor: the shut lines sit tight and even along the door and hatch edges rather than carrying the wider gap an articulated hinge needs.

Two-Tone Green and Badge Detail

The light green over dark green split is an unusual choice for this subject, most surviving 924 Turbos wear single-tone paint, which makes this particular casting a distinctive variant for a collector who already owns a more conventional example. The paint shows genuine depth under direct light, and the Turbo script and Porsche crest sit flush against the body with crisp printed edges rather than a slightly raised decal film. Wheels carry the period-correct alloy pattern the Turbo used, and glazing sits flush across the fastback's large rear window, a shape that's easy for lesser castings to get wrong.

An Accessible Porsche With a Transaxle Layout

Front Engine, Rear Transaxle, Even Weight

Porsche placed the 924's engine up front and its transmission at the rear axle, a transaxle layout that balanced weight distribution close to 50/50 and gave the car genuinely composed handling despite using mechanical components shared with Volkswagen and Audi products of the era. The Turbo variant added forced induction to a 2.0-liter inline-four, closing much of the performance gap with Porsche's pricier, air-cooled 911 while keeping the 924's lower purchase and running costs. That combination made the car a practical entry point into the brand for buyers who wanted genuine Porsche engineering without the 911's price.

From VW-Audi Roots to a Racing Pedigree

The 924 platform's transaxle layout later proved itself on track, forming the basis for the homologation-special 924 Carrera GT that Porsche campaigned at Le Mans, lending the whole 924 line a competition pedigree beyond its origins as a budget-conscious model. For a collector tracing Porsche's lineup through the 1970s, the 924 Turbo marks the point where the accessible model started taking its own performance seriously rather than simply filling a price gap beneath the 911.

Placing an Entry-Level Porsche on the Shelf

At 1:18, the 924 Turbo's compact coupe proportions run close to 22 centimeters, a manageable footprint that leaves room on a standard shelf for several companions from the same era. It sits naturally alongside other transaxle Porsches, the 944 and 928, or against contemporaries from Volkswagen and Audi given the shared mechanical roots, a useful grouping for a collector interested in that cross-brand engineering story. MCG positions this release at a reasonable diecast price point, appropriate for a subject that was itself Porsche's accessible model rather than a halo car, and the sealed one-piece construction suits a coupe whose appeal rests on clean surfacing rather than opening panels. The unusual two-tone paint makes this a worthwhile second 924 Turbo for anyone who already owns the more common single-color version.
