That’s a good car. Tarek brought it by my place when he picked it up. I Took it for a quick spin around the block. I’ve driven so many of these cars, You can tell the good ones immediately. This is a good one. Enjoy it.

I have been looking for over a year for the car that felt right. This one just felt right. Tarek (you can see his comment above) is a local reseller who finds these cars and sells them at a fair price after he uses high quality local shops to perform needed service. In this case he had Sleepers Speed Shop do an engine re-seal and some other needed maintenance as these cars are getting older and seals and parts deteriorate. Tarek came by my shop with a different red 964 a few months ago but that car didn't fit what I wanted. When Tarek got this car he called me and after he hooked me up with a great deal I am now a new owner of a 964.

I will be doing some modern reversible upgrades and storing all the stock parts on a pallet in my shop soon.

That's the way to do it Jerry. I too am heavily modifying my car, but keeping ALL stock parts and everything will be reversible. Fortunately, the guy I bought my C4 from did the same thing.

Hey - great car...feel free to get in touch if you need / want any advice on mods/correcting a C4 and keeping it stock/sleeper looking. For the most part, that's what I've done w mine. Everything is reversible, but "corrected" it's just a better car and a lot more fun.

One thing that makes a huge impact in a C4 that's often overlooked is swapping out the accelerometers for solid state accelerometers...put that on the list of you intend to drive it hard...makes a noticeable improvement in bumpy brake zones and bumpy corners...and it's a modification that no one would ever know, until they drove yours vs theirs under the same conditions...

And i know the car has low miles, but if you find the diff lock seals are dead/leaking pm me- i have sets still available from my last seal run...

Keen to hear more about the difference you can feel with this change. Can you elaborate?

On my list is a pair of Sparco SPX seats, Sparco Steering wheel, RS door panels, Black lightweight carpet, something with the exhaust, a set of custom Rotiform FUC 3 piece wheels, Some custom carbon fiber, new suspension, and more...

I am between these two wheel colors...
