DESCRIPTION
'964' is Porsche's internal designation for the version of their 911 manufactured and sold between 1989 and 1994. Designed by Benjamin Dimson in 1986, it featured significant styling revisions over previous 911 models; most prominently in the way that the bumpers, spoilers and wheel arches blended cohesively into the bodywork. It was the first iteration of the 911 to be offered with Porsche's 'Tiptronic' automatic transmission and all wheel drive as options. Porsche chose to re-use the 3.3-litre, turbocharged engine from the 930 with several minor revisions that made the engine smoother, less prone to turbo lag, and more powerful with a total output of 320bhp at 5,750rpm. The sleek silhouette of the 964 was indicative of Porsche's new design philosophy and is regarded in hindsight, as one of the prettiest 911s ever built and certainly, in period, was one of the most powerful.
This left-hand drive 964 is a lovely example of the iconic and dramatic looking Turbo and was delivered new to Italy in 1991. Whilst in Italy, this particular turbo was equipped with optional extras including a limited slip differential, sports seats, sports suspension, 17" turbo alloy wheels and a sunroof. This vehicle was regularly maintained by Porsche specialists in Italy for the majority of its life, with the last stamp in the service book in 2004 at Piave Motori when the car showed 41,800 kms. The car returned to Germany in 2010 where Porsche specialist Mancino GmBH carried out a service at 50,000 kms, and it has been used sporadically since that work was carried out. All this information is present in the car's original service booklet in the history file.
Finished in Metallic Midnight Blue with White wheels and a full black leather interior this car has covered a mere 55,000 kms since 1991 and presents very nicely. We are happy to offer this super example of the ever popular and collectable 964 Turbo which, with careful maintenance and attention, will deliver many more miles of powerful Porsche motoring!
