Background:
Porsche's 911 replacement, now designated the 964 was an overall update and modernization of their classic 911. The 964 development program began in 1986 and production commenced at the end of 1989 and ended in 1994 when the new 993 model was introduced. At the very end of 964 production, Porsche pulled the final 90 Turbo models from the regular assembly line for transformation into the rarest 911 variants ever built by the Factory.

All 90 were all transferred to "Porsche Exclusiv" and built as the very special Turbo 3.6S. The Turbo 3.6S was available either with the traditional 964 Turbo 3.6 body, or with the "Exclusive" flachbau or "slant nose" option.

The optioned designation for these unique machines denoted what market they would be built and sold to, X83 (Japanese market), X84 (ROW) and X85 (USA market.) The Turbo S Flachbau, was available in the US as a separate $60,179 option on top of the base price $99,000. Similar pricing for the upgrade was available in Europe as well as in Japan. 39 Models were made for US markets, 27 for the Rest of the world, and just 10 for Japan. A wide variety of options were available for individual client choosing ensuring that no two examples were the same.

The X83 models all featured the 930 Turbo S/944 style front end with hooded pop up type headlights, 930 style rear quarter vents and boxed rockers. All were built as left-hand-drive exclusion/exception models in Polar Silver Metallic and featured the exact same basic build code specifications. With just ten exampled being completed, the 964 "Furrattonozu" it is one of the rarest production Porsche's of all time.

This Porsche was completed in late December of 1993 and then invoiced and shipped on January 24th, 1994. The original Corporate owners in Japan also purchased directly an extended full 10 year warranty. The official delivery and "in service & in warranty" date was recorded on April 1st, 1994 and the extended warranty program expired on April 1st, 2004. Two individual Corporate owners maintained, serviced and cared for this vehicle prior to our purchase. All services, safety checks and maintenance programs are completely current and up to date. All original books, manuals, tools and accessories as provided new by Porsche remain with this vehicle.

More rare than a 959 and significantly easier to care for and service at a fraction of the price. It would be near impossible to find a more rare or desirable Porsche in the market today.
