I know the 944 Turbo was also called the 951.
Did any of the 924 special ones like the Turbo, Carrera GT, GTS or GTR
have other designations?
Are there other special 924s like the GTS or GTR?
Thanks

cars:

Re: Porsche Factory Designations |

In 1977 Porsche made the first limited edition of the 924, known as the
924 Matini edition (from sponsor Martini & Rossi), to celebrate their
championship victories in 1969, 1970, 1971 and finally 1976.
They were painted in Gran Prix White with a blue and red stripe on the
sides. It was Porsches idea that associating the 924 with their success
in racing, would give the 924 a better image.
