Perhaps a bit ahead of the market, six months after I initially wrote this 965 up it remains for sale at the same $74,995 asking price. It would seem that my original thought that it was a bit overpriced was on the mark. The color combination probably isn’t the most iconic 965 pallet, but it’s understated and pretty. What would you be willing to pay for this example?

Given the longevity of the classic 911 it seems somewhat odd how quickly both the 964 and also the 993 departed from the scene. The combined life span of the two models failed even to reach a decade. For the 964 especially, that relatively short time on the market has seemed to hold down prices as buyers clamor to own the last of the air-cooled 911s, the 993. The 964 Turbo, however, holds its own stake in the “last of the breed” marketplace, being the last rear-wheel-drive 911 Turbo produced (excluding, of course, the ultra-rare GT2). First released in 1990, the 964 retained the 3.3 liter turbocharged flat-six of the 930, but with power output raised to 315 hp and delivered to the rear wheels via a 5-speed manual transmission. The car featured here is an Amazon Green Metallic 1991 Porsche 911 Turbo, located in Colorado, that has seen just north of 80K miles.

This is an extremely subtle shade in pictures and I imagine the color will pop quite a bit more when seen in person and especially in sunlight. Otherwise, aside from a few blemishes noted by the seller, this 964 looks in good shape and the Savannah Beige interior contrasts very well with the exterior color. With that said, the mileage isn’t super low so I do not think this car has much chance of hitting its asking price as we’ve seen 964 Turbos in similar condition fail to sell at prices quite a bit lower than this one.

Please stop calling 964 Turbos “965s.” The 965 was a prototype V8-engined 911 to slot above the turbo, but below the 959 that never saw production. A 964 Turbo is just a “964 Turbo,” whether 3.3 or 3.6.
