About these Collectables

Porsche 964 Turbo

Porsche and Turbo, both inextricably linked. In 1974, Porsche launched the first street-legal turbo following many racing successes. Due to the somewhat unpredictable nature of the engine and the not yet perfect suspension, many ended up at the bottom of the exit ramp facing the wrong way. It was not without reason that it was nicknamed the “widowmaker.” After the 3-liter was replaced by the 3.3-liter and, in the final phase, even fitted with a 5-speed gearbox, the Turbo version could not be missing from the completely newly established 964 series. Thanks to a refined suspension and electronic engine management, the 964 3.3 Turbo (factory designation M30/69) was much easier to handle. Power rose to 320 hp and came on beautifully and gradually. The maximum torque of 450 NM is released at 4,500 rpm when the turbo delivers its maximum pressure of 0.7 bar.

Many cars have been used for long journeys, for which this model is extremely suitable, but consequently often have high mileage. Only 3,660 examples of the 964 3.3 Turbo were manufactured. A number of examples met an unfortunate end or were used for, let's put it mildly, dubious tuning projects. Furthermore, the wide rear fenders and the spoiler are naturally prominent features. Not for show, but absolutely necessary to unleash and maintain that power on the road. Moreover, the intercooler is supplied with plenty of fresh air in this way for maximum efficiency.

Now up for auction is an accident-free and perfectly maintained example from 1991 with only 108,000 km on the odometer. This 964 Turbo is truly a gem with its understated color scheme and light interior. Originally delivered in France and brought to the Netherlands in 2016, where the car had one previous owner. The current owner had the car brought into top optical and technical condition by Porsche Gelderland in 2022. He drove it for about 15,000 km, so there is no evidence of damage from standing still, as is often the case with many cars of this type. Until the beginning of this year, the 964 Turbo was always serviced at both Porsche Gelderland and Porsche Rotterdam.

Our opinion

An unmolested 964 Turbo in top condition is hard to find. No leaks or defects, just a very well-maintained car without flaws. As far as we are concerned, it is an icon of a car in the best Porsche tradition, equipped with a Turbo with corresponding performance. Rightfully a supercar at the time, and today a sought-after and desirable example, certainly in this condition! 

About the seller

This 964 Turbo belongs to a true Porsche enthusiast who tracked down this 964 Turbo via an advertisement from a fellow enthusiast in the Katwijk area. The car made an immediate good impression due to its original appearance, history, and specifications. Prior to the purchase, the Porsche was fully inspected by Porsche Classic Center Gelderland, after which it was decided to add the car to the collection. In the years that followed, significant investments were made in maintenance and optimization to bring the car into top technical condition. Due to the purchase of other cars and to make room within the collection, it was decided to now offer the Porsche to the next enthusiast via The Collectables. Technical details
