I recently got this, 10+ years after selling my first 964, a 1989 C4 that I have missed. All-original including 1st paint, but I took off the magnesium wheels so I wouldn't worry about them.

Finally got the carbon hood fitted, just waiting for the bonnet sticker but really happy with the outcome.

Thanks. Car has been great so far. 30k miles all in Europe, basically two long term owners with no evidence of tracking, so very little for me to do to it, except to try to bring it as close to new condition as possible, while driving it more than its prior owners.

Opinion so far is that it is not as harsh as it is made out to be. Not as extreme or different than my old c4 as i expected. Just better in many ways. Biggest difference to me is metal syncros and lightweight flywheel (which i did to my c4). The whole experience is just more... More like a race car, more like a Porsche.

Like a NASCAR roof flap perhaps?
Regardless, glorious pic!

Thanks, yeah it's been a tough time for some here and sad to see their homes or precious metal flooded. Luckily none of us classic Porsche guys were affected.

Cheers,

Tom

Looking pretty good on the printed page in the latest edition of Classic. Retro. Modern., out for the night around the Wangan.
Cup-piped, C4, booming through the Shuto-ko tunnels.

From a writing idea triggered by questions here on Rennlist about Japanese number plates and their meaning...

Available at all good newsagents and a few supermarket check-outs!

@Carmel by the sea!
On the way home from NorCal to SoCal after purchase in 2012!
Everyone told me to steer clear of the 964s....They leak oil and have lots of problems.
Luckily I ignored the "experts"
