Porsche 964 Price, Specs, Photos, Price & Review

by Andrew Nabors
April 21, 2018
in 911, Features, Porsche News, Specs

The 964 series was introduced in 1989 to lift the Porsche 911 from the legacies of its predecessors. It was produced until the end of 1994, and the Porsche 964 ushered in many long-overdue improvements. It was the first time All-Wheel Drive was offered, and the ancient torsion bar suspension was replaced by coil springs and conventional shock absorbers.

Porsche 911 964 Carrera

 

1 of 5
- +

The first examples offered were the 964 Carrera 4, their entry-level offering. The 4 stood for 4WD thanks to a center differential. Although heavier than the later AWD models that used a viscous coupling amidships, the 964 Carrera 4 and the C4S are nearly indestructible. Soon after the series was introduced, a more mainstream Rear-Wheel-Drive model was launched as the Porsche 964 Carrera 2. These were the first Porsche 911 models to have ABS and power steering as standard equipment.

Total production the Porsche 964 specs is recorded as 62,172 cars. This includes the Porsche 964 Turbo, the 964 Speedster, and the rare models like the 964 Carrera RS. One of the more popular models was the 964 Targa. It was the last Porsche 911 Targa to have a traditional removable roof panel, every Targa since has been a rather complex device. The engine that powered every non-turbo Porsche 964 for sale was all new. Known internally as the M64, it displaced 3.6 liters with a compression ratio of 11.3:1

Porsche 911 964 Carrera RS

Aimed at racers, the Porsche 964 Carrera RS was stripped of all luxuries and fitted with a hotter M64 engine. It was 345 lbs lighter than a US-spec Carrera 2, but it was not sold in the US. Many of us wanted a light Rear Wheel Drive racer, but the closest we got was the 964 Carrera Cup. These 45 cars were fitted with airbags to make them street-legal, and they battled it out on tracks around the US. These race cars were not advertised to avoid confusing buyers who might be interested in the Carrera RS America. The survivors ended up being placed in loving homes as a testament to the Porsche RennSport division.

Porsche 964 Carrera RS America Specs:

Horsepower: 247 hp
Torque: 228 lb-ft
0-60 mph: 5.2 seconds
1/4 Mile: 13.6 @ 109 mph
Top Speed: 182 mph
MSRP: $89,000

The 964 RS America was a special edition in 1993-94. To celebrate American enthusiasm for the Porsche 911, they arrived with cloth seats without many power options that had become standard on every other model. It had 17″ wheels and suspension borrowed from the Turbo along with a curb weight of 2,954 lbs for only $54,800

Porsche 911 964 Cabriolet

Almost every 964 model except the RS, Targa, and speedster was offered as a coupe or a convertible. Cabriolet models weren’t as strong as the coupes, but they brought more money because of their scarcity. This was the last 911 to have a manual top, so convertible collectors like their lack of automated complexity. If you want a 964 Cabriolet for sale, ensure the top and weatherstripping are inspected for leaks at a Porsche shop. This can make or break your satisfaction with the car.

Porsche 911 964 Turbo

1990 Porsche 911 engine restored and modified by Singer Vehicle Design and Williams Advanced Engineering

If you wanted to walk on the wild side, the Porsche 964 turbo was ready for a new motor in 1989, but engineers ran into problems adding boos to the new M64 engine. So, the 964 Turbo for sale was initially released with the 3.3-liter engine of its predecessor. A few minor revisions allowed for smoother running and less turbo lag, and it was a hit with customers. 964 Turbo horsepower is rated at 320 hp, something V8 engines could barely do in the early 90s. The 1990s were all about the bragging rights of top speed. The Porsche 964 Turbo’s top speed was 180 mph thanks to the 964s curb weight of 2,469 lbs and incredible aerodynamics. Along with impressive top speed, the Porsche 964 Turbo 0-60 of 4.3 seconds set a new standard.

Porsche 964 Turbo Specs:

Engine: Turbocharged 3.3 Liter Flat Six
Horsepower: 355 hp
Torque: 384 lb-ft
0-60: 4.3s
1.4 mile: 12.4 @ 114 mph
Top Speed: 180 mph
MSRP: $99,000

Porsche 911 964 Turbo S

Another round of improvements culminated in the 964 Turbo S that launched in 1992. Still based on the bulletproof 3.3-liter, power was up to 376 thanks to bigger injectors and camshafts. Devoid of creature comforts, the lowered suspension was augmented by a strut tower brace up front and manual steering. Only 86 examples were produced, which makes it hard to find a 964 Turbo S for sale.

The Turbo S was so rare because everyone knew the 964 Turbo 3.6 engine was arriving in January 1993. After solving the issues with the M64 engine, the 3.6-liter offered 355 horsepower in Turbo form.  This second generation of 964 Turbo for sale is rare because less than 1,500 examples were produced. The factory was preparing to begin assembly of the 993 series in 1994, but they had enough parts to assemble 90 turbo bodies. These became the 964 Turbo 3.6 S. All 90 cars were transferred to Porsche Exclusive to be built to order by hand. They were offered with normal or slant nose front ends, and each car offered 380 horsepower and 384 lb-ft of torque. For sale, the 964 Turbo 3.6 S will be more expensive than a nice home.

Porsche 964 Turbo S Specs:

Horsepower: 380 hp
Torque: 384 lb-ft
0-60 mph: 4.6 seconds
1/4 Mile: 12.9 @ 113 mph
Top Speed: 182 mph
MSRP: $159,179

A final significant special model arrived in 1993. It was the 30th anniversary of the Porsche 911. The factory-built 911 examples for the world were each a Carrera 4S with the Turbo’s widebody. A titanium plaque and embroidered seats show the number of each build.
