Default Red 965 Turbo S, Flat top in da' house

you can not own the domain www.911flatnose.com well without owning your namesake.

I always regretting selling those 3 flatnoses that i had owned...they were really nice. A good buddy who had previously sold me the white flatty said he wanted to sell his red one. He's a top collector and i bot it sight inspection unseen, same as with the white. price was well, insanely fair. i owe him big time.

car is impeccable, 17kmiles, just serviced. probably nicer than the lower mile ones i had previously. red isnt my first choice but with only 22 or so flatnoses ever made, a few wrecked, 2 of the 3 i sold out of the country...well, beggars can not be choosers.

anyway, those things are just so nice. as much as i love the 993 turbos and 993Turbo S....there is something powerfully raw about a 965, and well, a flatnose S.

anyway, i stink with the camera, but i tried. u can see some of the snaps at www.911flatnose.com

enjoy.

Looks nice from the pictures.

However, for the record, your numbers may be off. According to flachbau.com, there were a total of 76 flatnose cars, with 39 of those delivered in the US.

Maybe you are thinking of the more rare Turbo S "Package Car" of which there were only 17.

Good luck.

i just went to Mark's website. i fully stand corrected. somehow i always thought it was 39 total, 17 package, 22 flat.

like the wife says, if my head wasnt screwed on, i'd leave that behind also.

later.

I've got a whole load of body work coming up, where would one get the S wing vents from? Are they the same as the 993Turbo S ones? etc...

Flatnose rocks! IMHO that's the only one that looks better than a 3.6...really nice and I typically not a big fan of red 964 Turbos...but I like that one! More pics...the interior pic seems more clear than the exterior.

Wow, and the best color combination as well.

Ofcourse I might be a bit biased.

I like, and every time I think I am over the flatnose look I see a picture and fall in love again. Beautiful and this car is certainly a keeper in my book.
Have to been to flachbau.com website yet and registered? I know Mark Smith likes to keep track of all the flatnose cars.
