Selling my well-sorted 964 Carrera 4 coupe in Midnight Blue with Classic Grey partial leather, Leather Sport Seats, Rear wiper, Porsche Classic radio and Singer style headlights. This Carrera 4 has had extensive recent maintenance, I intended to keep this car as my daily driver but circumstances dictate otherwise. I have known the car for a very long time and have done pretty much everything required to make it a great driver, including:

New Tires (Michelin Pilot Sports) with road force balance & 4 wheel alignment
New Brakes incl factory pads, rotors, sensors & fluid
New Engine mounts (upgraded to 993 style)
New Oil system (OK this incl the tank ($1796), hoses (over $700), lines all the way to both coolers in front, etc etc)
New Front AC/fresh air fans
New AC hose, conversion to 134, AC service
New axle boots with service, diff seals
New front (trunk) carpeting, plus new grey floor mats
New AGM battery
New Hydraulic pump ($1861)
New Ignition Distributor ($1500)
New engine sound absorber mat (factory part)
New rear spoiler module
New factory locking wheel nut set
New hood struts front and rear
Complete service incl valve adjustment, cyl leak test 1-3%, 2-5%, 3-4%, 4-6%, 5-2%, 6-4% plugs, filters, belts.
Repair misc oil leaks including oil return tubes, timing cover orings and front crank seal.
Solid state DME relay

This is only partial list of the parts that have been replaced to get everything working properly; the lights (lenses are not cracked and in nice shape), gauges (refurbished combination instrument and odometer reset gear), wipers including rear wiper, clock, cruise control, rear spoiler, windows (including new door and hood switches so alarm and interior light function properly) are all working. There is also a long list of labor cost to go along with those parts listed above.

This 964 drives like a new car, it handles perfectly with all diffs operating properly, steering wheel straight, perfect brakes with original pedal feel (not rock hard like cars that need the hydro pump) and that great 911 sound! The engine (top end) and clutch were done according to the PO around 90k, clutch still perfect no slip or shake on engagement. Engine tray removed to prevent heating issues re exhaust valves. Engine pulls great in all gears, smooth and quiet. Gearbox is perfect, shifts easily and cleanly in all gears.

I purchased the Porsche Classic radio and Singer style projector headlights as upgrades, everything else is stock as delivered. The lights are a super investment for "older" eyes like mine, but expensive at $900 plus and the Porsche Classic radio adds $1500 (but also adds bluetooth, navigations, satellite radio, etc and makes the car very usable on a daily basis).

The body and interior condition is above average, I had the seats matched and dyed to a very high standard. There is one small spot on the driver's seat where the cord has broken but it is not that visible. The car does have very rare Sport Seats in leather, which are super nice and comfortable on long tours. The shift boot has been replaced with a new factory part and the steering wheel stitching is excellent. I would call the interior a 7 or 8 out of 10. The exterior is probably about the same, mostly original paint that is showing through in a few very small spots (roof near driver's door and area below rear window). There are some scratches on the top of the rear bumper shown in the photo. Rear lights are not cracked and show well. There was a small parking lot incident about 10 years ago that lightly creased the engine lid and cracked the paint on the left rear fender (shown on Carfax as "minor issue.") The LR fender was repainted at that time and matches well, the small crease in the engine lid is still there but could probably be removed by dent specialist (it isn;t that noticeable so I haven't tried it). I had the hood repainted due to small chips etc, otherwise the paint is original.

This car is an excellent opportunity to own a 964 that is ready to drive, it is a great color combination and tons of receipts for recent work. Everyone that sees the car comments on how nice it looks. I have attempted to address any and all known issues and if anything the car is probably better than I described it. Please look at the photos closely and let me know if I can help provide any other information or photos. I may be able to help deliver to a RL member, and have a good local shop that can do a PPI for you if desired.

This is really a well sorted car, nothing that I know of needs to be repaired, which makes this car pretty rare in today's market. If you are looking for a great driver and can live with less than perfect cosmetics this car might be the one for you.
