The 964 iteration of the Porsche 911 fell into a bit of a no-man’s land in terms of collectability for a while but is now gaining a little more of the respect it deserves. This iteration of this venerable sports car had a short run. The first model introduced was the Carrera 4 in 1989, which introduced the notion of an all-wheel drive Carrera to the mainstream. The model range was succeeded a few short years later in 1995 by the much loved 993, the final air-cooled 911. In that short span, there was a good deal of variety in terms of model variants, however. One of the most fearsome was, as usual, the Turbo.
This would be the last rear-wheel drive Turbo that Porsche would unleash. As such, it has started to become a bit of a legend. Introduced in 1990, the 964 Turbo used the same 3.3 liter engine as in the previous Turbos, but was upgraded slightly for better performance, capable of 320 bhp and 332 lb-ft torque. It would not be until 1993 that Porsche would unveil a Turbo based on the new 3.6 liter engine that debuted with the Carrera and Carrera S. The 3.3 Turbo was more common than the 3.6, with 3,660 being built versus 1,500. This 1991 Turbo on offer in California has just shy of 40,000 miles on the clock and comes with a few tasteful performance upgrades.

As usual, Porsche 911 Turbos do not come cheap, no matter the year. But the asking price of $100,000 left me scratching my head. A 911 Turbo of this vintage with anywhere between 20,000 to 40,000 miles should run you between $50,000 and $70,000 at the most. Sure, this Turbo has been breathed on a bit to put performance up there with the best of them and the mileage is quite reasonable, but the seller has an uphill battle in reaching for six figures.

I’ve had the huge poster of this car on my wall in 1991 in war torn Yugoslavia thinking I’ll never have one. Now I live in US and I could probably afford one (have lift and working on BMW’s for the last 10 years, but I want to get me a Porsche).
To me, the 964 represents the everything I wanted in Porsche. Having said that, this seller is adding up the receipts and coming up with this number. We all know it doesn’t work that way.
A fellow instructor friend of mine used to run one of these at the same drivers events I went to. It was so pretty. I would chase him through corners, and I distinctly remember being right on his tail in the downhill at Lime Rock, and watching him rocket away at track out – gaining car lengths every second. Most amazing to me was the surreal glow that was emanating from the driver’s side tail pipe. I asked him about it and he said “Yeah, that cat gets pretty hot when you’re on it” or something similar. It just burned into my retina and I’ll never forget how magical it was. Everyone should have a moment like that.
Yeah, I want one too.
I get it…the 964 is iconic..and not because of the movie Bad Boys….
this was the widowmaker….and many have not survived…..but at this number is is tickling around the 911 3.6 variant….granted it would probably have more miles….but for me the Holy Grail of the 964 is the Turbo 3.6
still this is a stunning car…..would take this over a 997TT any day of the week and twice on Sunday
Thanks to my father who told me regarding this
website, this weblog is in fact amazing.
I agree with MDriver the 3.6 turbo is the Holy Grail. These cars are not nearly as much of a widow maker as the earlier turbos. I had an 89 RUF modded turbo which was downright scary. My ex wife drove it once and got on the boost with the car pointed the wrong way and ended up in a scary spin. We were fortunate that no one was on the road with us. The 964/5 Chassis is much more refined and although the lag is still there the chassis take a lot of the edge out of it.
These 3.3 Turbos are great cars just not yet commanding that 6 figure price IMO, key word being “yet”.
