The Porsche 964 Turbo was the final evolution of the original single-turbo, rear-wheel drive 911 formula. Launched in 1990, it initially used an updated 3.3-liter flat-6 from the previous 930, producing 320 horsepower. For its final 2 model years, 1993 and 1994, Porsche introduced the more powerful and much rarer Turbo 3.6, which featured a 360 horsepower engine based on the M64 motor from the 964 Carrera. This switch created a clear hierarchy within the 964 Turbo family.
Collectors prize the 964 Turbo for its muscular looks and demanding driving dynamics. It combines classic air-cooled character with modern features like power steering, ABS, and coil-spring suspension, making it more usable than its predecessors. The Turbo 3.6 holds special appeal due to its low production numbers and starring role in the film "Bad Boys," making it one of the most iconic 911s of the 1990s.
The market for the 964 Turbo is mature, with an average sale price over $268,000 confirming its blue-chip status. Values for the 3.3-liter cars are strong and stable, while the Turbo 3.6 models command a significant premium, often trading for twice the price of a comparable 3.3. Exceptional examples, like the ultra-rare Turbo S, can reach well into 7 figures.
Buying Tips
- Check carefully for engine oil leaks, a common air-cooled 911 issue. Pay attention to valve covers, timing chain housings, and through-bolts.
- Inspect the K27 turbocharger for signs of oil leaks or excessive shaft play. A rebuild is expensive.
- While galvanized, rust can still appear around the front and rear window seals, rocker panels, and in the 'kidney bowls' at the back of the front fenders.
- A comprehensive and consistent service history from a known Porsche specialist is non-negotiable. Gaps in records often hide deferred and costly maintenance.
- Drive the car to check the G50 5-speed transmission. It should shift smoothly without grinding; worn synchros are a common complaint.
Prices range from as low as $9,600 for major projects to over $1,265,000 for the most desirable and pristine examples.
