VIN WP0AB096XKS450803 completed on September 5, 1989

Originally delivered by Porsche Warrington from Warrington, PA. 88,064 miles currently but during the first 18 years, it was only driven 30,000 miles. The Carfax and records on hand confirm regular services. The condition of this 911 is nothing short of spectacular. The paintwork is original and in excellent condition. The interior is beautiful including the dash, carpets, headliner, and steering wheel. The front and rear seats have been reupholstered in black leather with houndstooth inserts.

Mechanically, the 3.6L engine runs very strong with a 5-speed manual transmission which is an effortless shift with the hydraulic G64 gearbox and four-wheel disc brakes. The Carrera 4 has the optional all-wheel-drive feature which provides excellent traction with 17" Cup 1 wheels, Michelin 205/50ZR17 in the front & 255/40 ZR 17 on the rear.

The current owner purchased the 964 in late 2015. In 2016, Sleepers Speed Shop completed the following: Evaluate and charge A/C system with R134a, replace the battery, replace front shocks with OEM Bilstein struts, replace both front caliper hard lines, replaced front brake hoses, replaced both rear upper shock mounts, adjusted ride height, totaling $4,345.15.

History

The 964 was considered to be 85% new as compared to its predecessor, the Carrera 3.2. The first 964s available in 1989 were all-wheel-drive equipped "Carrera 4" models; Porsche added the rear-wheel-drive Carrera 2 variant to the range in 1990. Both variants were available as a Coup�, Targa, or Cabriolet. The 964 Carrera was the last generation sold with the traditional removable Targa roof until the 2011 991. A new naturally aspirated engine called the M64 was used for 964 models, with a flat-6 displacement of 3.6 liters. The 964 Porsches are loved by many enthusiasts for their classic look and feel, but modern drivability. Unfortunately, Porsche struggled during the 964 era and not enough examples were produced to meet the demand of collectors today.
