When the 911 964 was first brought to market, Porsche was keen to emphasise that, although it was patently still a 911, it was in fact 87% different from the outgoing model - the largest update to the 911 marque at the time.
Displacement of the informas air cooled flat six, was raised to 3600cc, producing an impressive 250hp, power steering and ABS brakes were now fitted as standard and the old torsion bar rear suspension was replaced with coil springs and shock absorbers. Careful attention was also paid to aerodynamics with a reduced drag coefficient down to 0.32, and with virtually zero lift stability and road holding at high speeds was greatly improved.
The 964 was offered in a host of variants ranging from four-wheel drive to rear wheel drive, non-turbocharged or turbocharged, coupe or cabriolet, but aside from the 911 Turbo and the Speedster, the rarest of the C2 model range is the classic 911 Cabriolet.
These days the 964 is an almost universally popular generation of 911. Endeared to the hearts of many for its near-perfect blend of modernity and classic purity, most enthusiast would stick a 964 in their five-car 911 garage and with just 39 cars allocated to Australia in the 1990 year, makes for a great investment.
The car offered here is an Australian delivered build for the model year 1990 Porsche 911 Carrera 2 Cabriolet, delivered new in May, 1990 to Hamiltons in Richmond, Victoria and finished in Marine Blue over Navy Blue leather interior.

The paintwork is free from any imperfections and the the interior blemish free.
Today the car has travelled just 177,795 kms and presents in excellent condition, a testimony to its previous ownership. Combining the classic appeal of the true 911 philosophy with modern comforts, It is the perfect 911 for the enthusiast and first-time owner alike.
