Default 991.2 and 964 side by side

I just picked up a new to me 964 and took a few side by side pictures with my 991.2, figured I'd share, enjoy.

We forget how small the original 911 is. But also, how true to original the current 911 is--50+ years on. The difference in size and shape due primarily to safety and other regulations.
I need another air cooled 911 and I think your 964 is the one. Enjoy!

That is quite the evolution! Thanks for sharing the pictures. I recently did a few laps in a buddy's 964 track car, and it's crazy how raw and just completely analog it felt. Tons of fun.

Great pics! Thank you!

Am hoping to get some photos of my new Carrera T alongside a 1968 911T which belongs to a member at our local Porsche club.

I see what you did there- hedged your water-cooled losses with air-cooled gains. Clever Hans.

I really think the new(old) rear grill is a vast improvement on the 991.2.

Nice. But it makes me miss my 964 (more).

My automotive pet peeve, blurring out the plates. Otherwise, lovely pair.

Best of both worlds and a hard to beat pair if you can get a water cooled and air cooled 911. Hope to join this "club" someday! Enjoy in good health OP, thanks for sharing
