Porsche 911 964 Carrera 4, 1993. 79,461 km, service books from
new.
Remember that moment back in the 1980s and 1990s when Porsche
purists collectively turned up their noses at the 964? Too modern,
too much electronics, not enough of a 'real' 911. The air
conditioning that finally worked, the ABS, the power steering:
heresy to the men who believed a 911 only earned the name if it
tried to fling you into the hedgerow at the first wet corner. And
look at it now. That very 964 has grown into the pivot point of the
entire 911 story. The last generation with the classic lines, but
with the engineering to actually use it every single day. Put
differently: the 964 is the 911 with which Porsche finally grew up,
without surrendering its character.
I have always had a soft spot for those transitional cars. The
models standing with one foot in the past and the other in the
future. The 964 is the textbook example. Beneath that timeless rump
still sits the 3.6 litre air-cooled boxer, good for 250 bhp, and
that sound, that unmistakable air-cooled rasp that swells slowly
into a BWWWAAAAAH as you chase it past four thousand revs, you will
never get that back from any modern turbo-Porsche. This is the
sound people buy season tickets to hear. And to think you get to
conduct that symphony yourself with the manual G6400 gearbox. No
paddles, no dual clutch that reckons it knows better than you do.
Just you, your left foot and a gear lever.
The story continues on our website, where the full file is kept as
well. 124 photographs including the underside. The service history,
scanned in full. The Carfax report. Paint thickness measured panel
by panel. The original factory brochure to page through. A timeline
from 1 January 1993 to today, with every owner and the mileage year
by year in a single graph.
