Whilst unverified, for what it’s worth, when it was listed on Carsales the description read: “Factory Rubystone Red” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not what you've got, but how you use it 😁👍 Agreed! Just did 2,500 k's in Tasmania over a week in my 964. Did everything from keep up with current GTS Caymans and 991s on west coast targa stage roads (with the tight, tech stuff and the open, high speed stuff) and then spent four days touring the centre and easy coast with the Mrs. The car did everything I asked of it. Was highly capable on the rally stages and perfectly comfortable on the touring days. Now granted, my car is not stock but I put its capabilities down to the work we've done on suspension / geometry. I think you either see value in that experience or you don't. Not trying to convince anyone here. Can just say that - on the road - a well sorted 964 is plenty quick enough and still delivers the air cooled vibes.

LeeM Posted 4December, 2023 Report Share Posted 4December, 2023 @Andy73 Mate, I've hosed GT3's, McLaren's, Ferrari's and the like in the Adelaide hills in my '78 (much to their surprise), yet I've also been made to look pretty hopeless by an MX5, earlier WRX's and a few others in old 911's, so I'm not that good behind the wheel. As green with envy as I am to those who own those amazing sports cars, I think to drive a slow car fast is a lot more satisfying...until you hit a guard rail, then you realise you're a bit of an untalented dick 🙄 wilburforce and Mik001 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other thing about the modern cars is having the safety tech is certainly no bad thing. LeeM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleazius Posted 4December, 2023 Report Share Posted 4December, 2023 To clarify my earlier statement, I meant in stock guise. The same can be said about the 993 too, obviously with the exception of the turbos in each generation. Not taking away from the experience which is a totally different thing. In my opinion the AC cars deliver a better all round experience. The modern cars are so fast as to be almost pointless on our roads, and are so sanitised and have so much traction that getting into trouble due to your right foot is actually difficult to achieve unless it comes in the form of blue flashing lights. YMMV. LeeM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeM Posted 4December, 2023 Report Share Posted 4December, 2023 Wasn't having a go @sleazius, just my opinion mate 👍 Yep...these new 'modern' cars are just waiting to suck you in to either have a big stack from being over confident ( I don't need a modern car to do that! 🙄), or lose your license. I've only driven standard or mildly modified 996's and 997's, and they're plenty fast enough to get you in big trouble, so I imagine a GT3/RS would have me in the lock up real quick. I'd still buy one if I had the means though 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was underwhelmed and disappointed as my first Porsche. And that was a $51k investment not $250k 😬 On 04/12/2023 at 09:10, sleazius said: They're a very slow car by today's standards, and probably not enough of a vibe to make up for it. ^ what he said. If I ever returned to a 964, it’d need more power and preferably add a bit of lightness. Maybe then I’d “get it” but I moved on to water cooled in the form of a 996 GT2 and then later GT stuff and haven’t looked back. I have no doubt a modified 964 can be a very good thing but the asking prices to me are frankly ridiculous for what that car offers and when you compare to a whole world of other options. sjm and micknine01 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
