Porsche 904 GTS

The Porsche 904 is a very beautiful mid-engined car, that has left its mark in the automotive world. It was the first Porsche model with a body of fiberglass and it was very lightweight. It was equipped with a 2-liter engine that produced about 180 hp and it was able to reach 100 km/h from a standstill in about 6 seconds with its top speed reaching close to 260km/h.
