  • Professional racecar driver Leh Keen enjoys customizing Porsche sports cars for a living. However, these cars are built to handle more than just road races. Keen's "Safari Porsches" work just as well whipping through the mountains and desert as they do on city streets.

    Won't make anyone cringe if you're a real car enthusiast... Porsche always wanted its share in rally and offroad, they built a car for Group B, the 959 a car that sells for around 1-2million dollars, it has locking rear dif, "off road" suspension and low gear.

      The Keen Project doesn't really touch the engine much save for a tune up. Nearly all of the work is suspension, body, interior and ancillaries to those (ducting, electronics, etc). That saves a TON of research, development and execution dollars which obviously translates into a more affordable product. And just as capable since the SC and 3.2 at ~200-230 hp have plenty of oomph.
