In late 1989, the iconic Porsche 911 underwent a major evolution with the introduction of the 964 generation. With technologies from the 959 flagship model, this would be an important car for Porsche, since the world economy was undergoing recession and the company could not rely on its image alone.

It was launched as the Carrera 4, the “4” indicating four-wheel-drive, demonstrating the company’s commitment to engineering. Drag coefficient was down to 0.32. A rear spoiler deployed at high speed, preserving the purity of design when the vehicle was at rest. The chassis was redesigned overall. Coil springs, ABS brakes and power steering made their debut. The engine was increased in size to 3600 cc and developed 184 kW. 

The 964 is a modern-day classic. It still has the iconic 911 shape but comes with a host of creature comforts such as air-conditioning, central locking and power steering. ABS braking also contributes to making this car a very safe and comfortable classic!

This specific car is a 1991 Carrera 4 Cabriolet with a 5-speed manual gearbox. The car is finished in Guards Red with black leather interior and a black canvas roof. It has a good service history with Porsche and Porsche specialists. The car is largely original except for some cosmetic work done lately to refresh the car. It is accident free.
