Post Porsche 911 (964)

So who else is a fan of these? Or not?

964 and 993 drivers are the real men! There's something classic and hardcore about the pre-watercooled cars that the 996 and 997 don't have, and it demands respect even though I'm not a 911 fan.

I see a few of those still running around here in SoCal.

Distinctive. A lot moreso than today's Porsches.

The Porsche dealer nearest me has a nice 993 Cabrio that has a sticker of over $50k. It appears to be in good condition.

Ah that car is beautiful. So well kept. I like the 964 but my favorite Porsche is the 993.

it's okay, but with the 959 debuting before it, it made the 964 a bit plain, if one can ever say that about a Porsche.
