This Ultra-Rare Schuppan 962CR Is a Le Mans Car for the Road

It might not be just as rare, but apart from the steering wheel, I like the Dauer 962 LM better .

So, this is what it would look like if the F40 and Porsche 959 had a baby...I've always wondered about that.

This is the opposite of what ‘synergy’ means. The 959 and 962 are both beautiful cars, but when mixed together, they just don’t look nice. It isn’t exactly ugly, neither does it look funny, it just... looks weird.

It does look somewhat menacing for an ‘80s supercar, though. I’ll give it credit for that.

I'm surprised how long this dealership has retained a good portion of its cars. The Schuppan is the 2nd oldest car there dating back to 2014, along with the F187, F40 LM, & 288 Evo. A good bulk are from 2015 & 2016 as well which is surprising because a handful of those cars are huge, collectors' pieces. I can only assume the asking price is ridiculously high & they fully intend on keeping them as long as possible.

They look better with regular 962 headlights.

Yes, yes it does. The Schuppan's stock headlights look like 993 headlights. Still, I think the Dauer 962 is the cooler car.

It sure looks like what the Autozam AZ-1 wants to be when it grows up.

I,ve always thought Schuppan's 962CR looked better than Porsche's street model because of Vern's UPDATED 959 look at the front and rear ends. The 962CR's rear wing looked more harmonious than Ferrari's F50 too. The F50GT though... with it's RACING style rear wing... is sic!!!

Oh, I see you follow both our Twitter and Facebook accounts

Nope, just emulating others who make comments to that effect when they see a "cool car."



Here's something from when I made an attempt to address the issue with a little less sarcasm:

If you think it should be included in the GT series, show your support here.

It's surely more productive than assuming someone who has any control over game content is going to see some random post in some random thread about some random car and be so compelled to start the process of including it in the game before your attention turns to something else.

I said a little less...

It keeps splitting the quote and I haven't a clue as to why.

I'm fairly certain I have never seen a Bingo Sports car ever be sold. They're put up for sale, sure - but I never seen any of them actually sell.

They’ve managed to sell quite a bit over the last few years, such as a F1 GTR, Bugatti’s, Rufs, a Diablo GT, etc.

But, yeah, there’s a decent chunk that sit.

They've sold a 959 within the last year.

What a hideous car, despite the interesting back story it has. The color is wrong, the interior is ghastly at best (especially combining tan/yellow) and the whole body is wrong. The wing is ridiculous, the face is far too friendly and moronic and you can place furniture in the oil cooling ducts....Vern, good man, your race data serves you a better place in our memories than your car.

The Dauer, while looking better, is equally questionable. It won LM in 94´ but it´s still a group C car.....for the road.....which in itself needs appreciation for being so bonkers I´ve just thought.
