went to look at a 965 turbo look coupe today (first porsche) and was surprised when i saw the front of the car....isn't that a 993 fender setup?

otherwise the car is mint inside.

the title says 964. its a 1994.

is that odd?

thanks

 

very odd, rear is 964. Body kit perhaps?

 

Started life as a 964 that someone slapped an aftermarket body kit on. And it's not a factory turbo either.
God only knows what else been done to it.

 

What a Frankenstein.

What does it look like inside the front tub?

The 964 front tub profile is nothing like the 993, hence why no one backdates 993s.

 

it looks like a 964, apparently the owner put 993 fenders and front clip on it...repainted.

kinda sad. i was looking for a clean 964 to sort out on my own or get something nice for more money from a true owner.

not may cars show up here in michigan, so i thought i owed this one a look over.
i assume for the price $24k somebody will buy it....not knowing much about the mashup of styles.

 

A real Flauchbau (1994 Turbo S) should have pop-up headlights and look like this:

 

Indeed and rarer 'package' cars have the normal upright headlights.
Dream car is a 3.6s package for me!

 

For the rest of us, yours is pretty much the dream car

 

From the ripples I would say the front wings are fibre glass

 

Humbled.

Hmmm... this can't be a 964 Turbo (part incorrectly referred to as a 965 - despite part no's being given that ID). The only flared rear arch 964 C4 was the 'Celebration' version - no C4 turbo. The 993 Turbo - yes, but the rear fender and lights in this one are 964. All puzzling. Interior shots may give it a way. Got a chassis/VIN number?

 

The 964 deck lid is the giveaway. It wouldn't accommodate an intercooler.

 

I think the OP said it was a listing for a turbo look and that it was titled as a 964. The issue was that it didn't look like any 964 or turbo the OP had ever seen.

Possible the "builder" was going for a sort of Turbo S Flauchbau look.

 

it is truly awful.
