It was one of the most successful race cars and won several championships around the world:
- World Championship Sport-Prototypes in 1985 and 1986
- 24h of Le Mans in 1986, 1987 and 1994
- IMSA GTP Championship in 1985, 1986, 1987 and 1988

The 962C first appeared in Le Mans in 1985. The engine was a boxer, 6 cylinders, two turbos, liquid cooled, 4 valves per cylinder and double overhead camshafts.
The body and aerodynamic aspects were modified in very different ways by private teams, so they could find different versions of snouts, air intakes, spoilers and wheel arches.
Virtually all Porsche 956 were converted to the specifications of 962 during 1985 and early 1986
