Default 964 speedster question

As many people here know I used to own a 964 speedster years ago which was stolen from my garage. I have seen a few pop up for sale these days where the owners have listed them as 1 of just over 100 made. I was fairly sure the number made was over 400. Does anyone know how many were made and how many sent to the US?

Thanks

FWIW, this says 925 were made. I can't find US production #s.

Disputed, but US production numbers were around 408. I'd say this number is accurate give or take 20...

According to Adrian's book, the numbers are 581 (ROW) and 925 (USA). This included the wide body variants too. All produced in 1994.

I believe there were under a thousand total. The Speedster VIN #'s are only three digits after the 465. 465 denotes the Speedster as opposed to 460 on other 964's including the America Roadsters. I've never seen total agreement on this. I guess that is to be expected.

"Excellence Was Expected" quotes two sources for production numbers of the 964 Speedster.

1st: Total production of 925 cars, 771 in 1993 and 154 in 1994 but with no breakdown by market.

2nd: Total production of 936 cars, 427 sold in USA and 509 in ROW (14 RHD).

Ian.
