Great piece by Petrolicious – cannot help but think of a Safari 911 to take on a trip like this!

Now I cannot think of a better car to do P2P (beside a 911). It looks good, reliable, old but not too old. What is the cut off year for the rally? I can however imagine myself in the rally with a late body 944 with a louvered hood

Since I also rally a classic Japanese car (also featured here on Petrolicious) , I’m glad to see this car featured. I remember seeing a video of this car by Matt Farah in 2016 and was wondering what ever happened to this 240Z. Love that Petrolicious is featuring more Japanese classics.
