Description

The Hot Wheels Blue Porsche 917 LH “Psychedelic” “Hippy Car” Le Mans 1970 P2 Podium Racer 4/5 2020 45/250 is our Best All Around choice for the 917 Porsche Hot Wheels collection.  This is because we believe it is a sleeper as a potential highly collectible Hot Wheels model. 

The Hot Wheels model presented here is based on the actual Martini Racing Porsche 917 entered into the 1970 24 Hours of Le Mans famed annual endurance race.  It was driven by Gérald Larrousse (FRA) and Willi Kauhsen (DEU) to a second-place overall podium finish. 

At the time, the international racing press best described the race car’s wild colors as “mind-blowing” green-and-blue livery — and thus dubbed it alternately as the “Hippie Car” or the “Psychedelic Porsche.” 

Incidentally, this was the Le Mans race during which Steve McQueen and his Solar Pictures production company shot the thrilling racing sequences for the classic motion picture Le Mans (DVD is available here.) 

So, for all the reasons stated above, and more, the Hot Wheels 2020 Porsche 917 LH Blue “Psychedelic” “Hippie Car” Le Mans 1970 P2 Podium Racer is a must-have Hot Wheels model for your collection. You can’t beat the price for a highly potential high-valued collectible in the future.

“Porsche 917 LH — The famous “Hippie” car that currently belongs to the Simeone Foundation Museum in Philadelphia.  The model is not 100% accurate… die casting is similar to the 71 body but the paint job is 1970…
