       Porsche 964

   nla

     The Porsche Type 964 is the internal name for a sports car automobile made by Porsche AG of Germany between 1989 and 1994, which sold as the then-current version of the "911" Carrera.

   nla  

     It featured significant styling revisions over previous versions of the Carrera, most prominently the more integrated bumpers (fenders), although it was still obviously a "911". It was the first generation of Carrera to be offered with Porsche's "Tiptronic" automatic transmission (as an option) as well as the first generation to be offered with all wheel drive.

       Carrera 4 and 2

     The first 964s available in 1989 were AWD equipped "Carrera 4" models, Porsche added the rear wheel drive Carrera 2 variant to the range in 1990. Both variants were available as a coupe, Targa or Cabriolet.

     The 964 Carrera was the last generation sold with the traditional "pop top" Targa roof. Later evolutions of the Targa, starting with the 993 generation, replaced that setup with a complex glass-roof "greenhouse" system.

     A new naturally-aspirated engine called the M64 was used for 964 models, which displaced 3.6 litres and produced 250 bhp (184 kW) @ 6100 rpm.
