Porsche 964 Carrera 2
Highlights
- Manual Transmission
- Guards Red
- Electric Sunroof
The 964 was an update to the 911 body, rather than a radical change as was initially planned. The body design changes reduced the drag coefficient from 0.39 to 0.32 and Porsche claimed the car was 85 percent new as compared to the outgoing Carrera 3.2. The Type M64/01 engine used in the 964 was now 3.6 Ltr compared to the 3.2 Ltr of the outgoing Carrera and used two spark plugs per cylinder to improve combustion and therefore lower emissions. The aerodynamic changes to the car reduced the overall length by 41mm when compared to the Carrera 3.2 and Porsche introduced a new electrically operated rear spoiler that raised at 50mph, eliminating rear lift. Power output increased by 16bhp to 247bhp; the 964 gained a new dual mass flywheel to improve low speed transmission noise, and ABS now came as standard.
This 964 C2 is finished in classic Porsche Guards Red and Linen Leather Sports seats with red piping. Factory optioned electric sunroof and manual gearbox, but best of all, this car benefits from factory original paint, something that is nearly unheard of these days. With this level of originality, this 964 is not one to be missed!
