The 964 generation of Porsche gives that bit of refinement some look for in the G-Body.

The Details

Exterior

Body and Paint
The presentation of this 964 is nothing short of excellent and can be described as highly original and well preserved. Meter readings and our inspection indicate original paint throughout. The finish is mirror-like though some factory orange peel also remains in areas. The gaps and panel fitment are factory and have not been altered. The car is straight down the sides as well.

Glass and Trim
The glass remains the original factory glass, the top rear window is clear with no issues and all of the trim on the car is original and has not faded. We see no cracks to any lenses or reflectors, the rubber is supple and in good condition throughout.

Wheels
The wheels retain their factory finish and feel true/straight while driving. Some of the wheels have a minor blemish here or there upon close inspection with the passenger front wheel showing the most imperfections in the way of some light peppering/scratching as photographed.

Notable Flaws
We do see flaws, primarily on the front half of the vehicle. There is light peppering on the hood with a small pencil point sized chip on the hood, headlight surround and cowl. A couple of small scrapes to the lower section of the front bumper as photographed and the drivers door edge and mirror also show some very minor blemishes as photographed. The driver's door also shows a small chip toward the front of the door. The windscreen shows light peppering as well. Lastly, we have noticed a small burn in the paint from previous detailing/buffing, found just under the drives side front quarter/vent window. All of these items would not warranty any refinishing and are minor overall. It would never be worth trading the original paint status of this car to fix such minute imperfections.

Interior

Seats and Surfaces
The interior remains virtually flawless and in factory correct condition with the exception of an updated but correct style Blaupunkt head unit. The sills are clean, as are the james, the carpets, kick panels, underside of the dash, center console, dash, dash fascia, seat backs, carpets, soft top roof underside etc… are all in excellent original condition with no issues to note.

Functionality and Accessories
The interior functionality seems to be in order with the seat buttons working upon testing, the HVAC system in order and functioning as intended. The upgraded stereo works very well and all gauges, switches, knobs etc… function as intended. The roof goes up and down with no issues as do the windows and spoiler. All lighting is functional and no issues are noted.

Engine Bay and Trunk

Engine Bay
The engine bay presents as factory-correct as one would hope. Correct clamps, coatings and overall presentation with original stickers and labels still in place throughout.

Trunk Area
The trunk area is of the same quality, removing the factory carpet shows a clean nearly new front trunk compartment with nothing out of place or issues to note. The original options sticker remains clearly visible as do all the matching VIN stickers throughout the rest of the car.

Underside
The underside benefits from a comprehensive recent dry-ice blasting revealing factory finishes and near medically clean surfaces. Everything appears to be stock, straight, and without any real issues to note.

Mechanicals

Engine
The engine starts instantly, runs strong, does not smoke or make any unwanted noises with performance abundant. It retains strong oil pressure under throttle and stays cool.

Transmission
The transmission and clutch work well together with no issues to note. The clutch feels as if it has plenty of life left and the synchros are all in excellent condition. Shifting is easy with no issues to note.

Brakes and Suspension
The brakes work well with no pulling or warping felt in the pedal. The suspension is appropriately firm with no noises and remains tight as does the steering.

Tires
The tires are Continental Extreme Contact DWS 06+ 205/50ZR17 (front) and 255/40ZR17 (rear) with date codes of 2022 and 2021 on all 4 corners.
