1994 Porsche 911 Turbo 3.6 Coupe

Published August 2, 2014 by Rob

Those who obsess over air-cooled 911s, and the 964 especially, will need little introduction to this model. While this isn’t the pinnacle of the 964 Turbo line (that would be the Turbo S), the Turbo 3.6 possesses enough rarity and panache to hold our attention any time we come across one. When Porsche initially developed and released the 964 Turbo they had yet to develop a forced induction example of the 3.6 liter flat-six that was standard across the 964 line. Naturally, they chose to stick with the well known 3.3 liter engine that had powered the 930 over the previous decade and it was not until 1993 that a 3.6 liter version of the 911 Turbo would be released. With 360 hp delivered to the rear wheels, the Turbo 3.6 remains one of the best 911 Turbos ever produced and the last of the rear-drive Turbos as the 993 would come standard with all-wheel drive. These are, quite simply, exquisite! The example featured here is a Titanium Metallic 1994 Porsche 911 Turbo 3.6 Coupe, located in New Jersey, with 38,176 miles on it.

1993 Porsche 911 RS America – Revisit

Published August 1, 2014 by Rob

The first car we featured in our RS America Double-take has come back around for auction. Presumably, the dealer who bought it from the original seller is now looking to capitalize on the rapidly escalating market for these cars and has wasted little time in putting the car back up for sale. The asking price for this RS America in our original feature was $60,000 and with bidding for this auction already at $71,985 that’s already a decent bit of appreciation. At this point the reserve is unmet so we’ll have to see just how high this one might go.

1990 Porsche 911 Carrera 2 Coupe

Published July 30, 2014 by Rob

Over time the 964 has grown on me quite a bit and right now they might just represent some of the best values on the 911 market. While a 996 likely still stands as a better performance value, the 964 clearly looks like it will hold, and increase, its value over time to a greater degree than seems likely with the 996. However, the time for a 964 serving as a good value may be short lived and the car we see here would probably not be the first choice of a value-seeking buyer. Nonetheless, this Diamond Blue Metallic 911 Carrera 2 Coupe, located in Santa Barbara, should make an interesting option for any 911 enthusiast and while it could make for a good collector it already has enough miles on it that its new owner should be able to enjoy driving it fairly often as well.

1964 Porsche 356C

Published July 29, 2014 by Rob

I have been thinking a bit about vintage cars lately. In part because of watching auctions over the weekend, but more so after spending some time with my in-laws who own some older cars. Vintage cars derive their beauty from a unique marriage of simplicity and (arguably) greater variation amongst their designs. So this is a nice time to come across another Porsche 356, the car that began Porsche’s long love affair with rear-engine rear-drive automobiles and even many years later it’s easy to see the roots of a modern 911 in a 50-year-old 356. This 1964 Porsche 356C Coupe comes from near the end of the model’s run and with it’s eye-catching yellow paint, which we don’t come across often with these cars, it’s sure to attract plenty of attention.

1987 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet

Published July 21, 2014 by Rob

I mentioned briefly in a previous post the transmission differences between the ’86 and ’87 model years for the 911 and we can see here how much sellers take pains to emphasize the presence of the G50 transmission. I always find it a humorous strategy. As I mentioned in that post, and as a few noted in the comments, the G50 is better, but not necessarily enough so that we should ignore the early years of these cars. With that said, we could probably make the case that the transmission should matter more to collectors rather than those looking for a driver as the G50 will likely show better value down the road. Which brings us to the car seen here: a Dark Blue 1987 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet, located in California, with just shy of 50,000 miles on the clock. This Cabriolet appears to be in excellent shape all around, the mileage is pretty low, and it came with a few highly desirable options, all of which likely suggests interested parties will have an eye towards the future when considering this as a purchase.
