Took the cars out for a run....

My brother, nephew and I took our cars for a Texas Hill Country run. Some of the best winding roads out there. Thought I would share some pics....

The Porsche is actually a 964 (91-92) with ORIGINAL 965 (94) wheels. The 993 model Porsche were years 95-98.

What year is the 965?
Good eye. The wheels are off a 965 but the car is a 964. The 965 (94) had a bump in liters to 3.6 from 3.3 for the the 1994 model. Both the 964 and 965 model run very close in performance. Below is a picture of my brother 94 965 he had (the only car he ever regrets selling) it only had 20k miles on it. BTW do you own a red 930?




Here's a pic of my brother's 993 turbo and my 993. Kind of gives you a comparison between the 964 and 993 models. His black turbo in this picture was the fastest car our family has ever owned. It was a beast! Enjoy

You should have kept the red 993. It looks incredible with the RUF bumper and wheels. One of the best 911's ever made.

Thanks. It was a great car. It had a PSS9 suspension that was corner balanced by Ruf in Dallas. Ruf 19s and a full Ruf exhaust. It also had an original Ruf CTR bumper (fiberglass). It was a lot fun.
