Porsche 911 964 Carrera 2 Cabrio manual transmission electr. Seats VAT deductible (1993)

Vehicle description

Porsche is one of the best-known automobile manufacturers in the world. Due to the expertise of the owner, the stock corporation founded in 1945 by Dr. Ferdinand Porsche had a good reputation from the beginning and became a legend with the development of the Porsche 911 in 1963. The "Neunelfer" was produced for 25 years, later the equally popular successor models "964" and "993" continued this tradition. The streamlined shape of the vehicle and the striking front end with round headlights and the turn signals integrated into the bumper enabled a high recognition value and have since been regarded as the epitome of Porsche vehicles.

In this auction, a beautiful Porsche 964 Carrera 2 Convertible from 1993 is offered for auction. It is the modernized successor of the famous "Neunelfer" and was registered for road traffic for the first time in July 1993. The car had originally arrived as a U.S. import to an owner in California and returned to Germany in 2016 as the property of a collector. The vehicle with the VIN WP0ZZZ96ZNS460535 last passed the main inspection at the TÜV in November 2021, but was temporarily deregistered in April 2022. Due to its age, the fully roadworthy vehicle may not yet carry H-plates, whether matching numbers are available cannot be confirmed with absolute certainty. Due to its long stay in the USA, the vehicle does not have a checkbook, so that the history has only been completely traceable since 2016. In current ownership, the Porsche 964 Convertible is guaranteed to be accident-free and will be handed over with the usual documents and 2 keys.

The dynamic sports car presents itself in fashionable black with a matching soft top, so that the headlights, the taillights and the striking Porsche emblem come into their own perfectly. Nothing is known about new or repainting in history, modifications to the vehicle were carried out neither in America nor in Germany. The Porsche 964 Carrera has retained its traditional appearance and has no dents or dents anywhere, and no signs of corrosion could be detected on the body. Slight scratches on the rear bumper tarnish the otherwise almost perfect look, the tiny paint damage caused by stone chipping in the front area is only noticeable at close range.

Original Porsche alloy wheels in a cool 5-spoke look are mounted on the vehicle, which are in good condition like the front tires from Nexen Winguard and the Hankook tires used at the rear. No changes were made to the chassis of the Porsche 964 Carrera, and no defects were found in the brakes, suspension and axles during the last service.

The interior of the Porsche 964 Carrera is based on its external appearance. The vehicle is lined in black and equipped with black leather armchairs, the dashboard and the 5 large displays also present themselves in the color that determines the interior. Apart from age-related wear and tear, no damage is visible in the interior, and a Persenning protective cover is included in the scope of delivery for the continued good condition of all installations. The dynamic sports car has electronically adjustable seats, and central locking, airbag, power steering, cruise control and electric windows are also available as equipment components.

According to the speedometer display, the offered Porsche 964 Convertible has covered about 220,000 kilometers in the past three decades, with the mileage being well documented at least since 2016. In the vehicle, all displays and necessary controls work without restrictions, but the built-in air conditioning system is out of operation and the cruise control would have to be repaired.

The Porsche 964 Carrera 2 uses a manual 5-speed transmission for power transmission and is powered by a six-cylinder rear engine with 3.6 liters of displacement and 250 hp. Compared to the 911, the electronic engine control has been further developed and a knock control for the cylinders has been integrated, which has a positive effect on fuel consumption and allows a top speed of 260km/h. The engine and drive technology work without restrictions, and during the last service in May 2022, it was also determined that the underbody is perfectly in order and without rust.

In recent years, the vehicle has been technically upgraded through several maintenance work. The hydraulic hose and tie rod heads were renewed, wheel alignment was carried out and the central locking was readjusted. The blower of the ventilation has also been submerged, but there is still some homework to be done. This applies to the already described defects in air conditioning and cruise control, in addition, the headlights would have to be converted to EU standards and the speedometer from miles to kilometers and an oil change would have to be carried out.

The offered Porsche 964 Carrera 2 Convertible is a real gem of the second 911 generation. The black paint gives this dream car a dynamic charisma and evokes admiration during jaunts with an open top on the roadside. The perfect road holding and the power of the rear engine predestine this sports car for spontaneous excursions into the surrounding area. Storage space for longer journeys is located behind the two driver's chairs, the trunk in the front area is reserved for golf equipment, as requested by Ferdinand Porsche.
