1993 Porsche 911 (964) Carrera 2 Targa Florio

As the transition from '964' to the '993' model took place at the end of 1993/early 1994, Porsche came up with an innovative solution for the final production run of the 964 model by taking the remaining Targa bodies and launching a limited edition 'Targa Florio' model for the European market only. Restricted to just six official UK right hand drive cars, the model was produced by 'Porsche Exclusive' who designed a special unique interior for the car designated 'Florio' to commemorate Porsche's historic success in the famous Italian long distance race of the same name. It was a full leather trim with the Porsche shield featuring on several interior surfaces and the Targa posts also had the 'Florio' emblem embossed into them.

This particular UK matching numbers car was finished in black metallic with a light grey leather (neither of which were available on the standard 964 model, but were on the later 993) with the factory air conditioning option. First registered late in 1993, the car has a comprehensive service history confirming the mileage of 76,000 from new and has just benefitted from a full recommissioning by highly respected marque experts Tech9. This work included a full service, a new clutch and the brakes refurbished throughout.

This is a rare 'milestone' car from Porsche in exceptional condition, and is now ready to be enjoyed again and comes to the Sale with a fresh MoT and a history file.
