Hello all! Nice to meet everyone here! Glad to report I'm a new 964 3.6 Turbo owner
I caught the 964 bug a little over a year ago so I bought a 964 C2:
Then I spent a lot of money, sweat, and tears and turned it into this:

Luckily I had the whole restoration caught on tape:

And in my spare time I even had time to build a miniture version too:

So I spent more than one year and finally got my C2 in prinstine condition. One day my current 3.6 Turbo turned up in a local dealer. I thought to myself I'm keeping and maintaining a 964 anyways, why don't I keep a 964 that is "worth" owning? To me a C2 will always "just" be a C2 but a 3.6 Turbo given its low production and its carisma I'm hoping it will raise in value as time passes by. So here I am!
As of this moment the car is undergoing engine rebuild and I'm getting rid of all aftermarket parts and also having the speedlines refurbished. Hopefully in a month's time my car will be restored to prinstine and totally stock condition and if I have time hopefully I will film and edit a video too!
Meanwhile I'll keep posting pictures of the restoration progress. Again nice to meet you all and keep the turbos spooling
Cheers!

I can see the first 2 pics, but I'm getting the dreaded red x on the pics of your turbo.
Anyway, congrats on your purchase and welcome to the club!

From a new 3.6 owner myself, congrats! Your C2 looks just my old C4...except yours in much much nicer.
edit: Just looked through your album, great pics. Can't wait to see your 3.6T progress.
