Het voertuig in detail

This car is a Japanese market left-hand drive car, first delivered on 7 September 1992. It was originally imported by Mitsuwa Motor Company, the only recognised importer of Porsche in Japan until 1997 (when Porsche AG set up its own dealer network). This 964 RS was delivered in Tokyo in 1992 where it remained until 2016 at which time the last owner brought it to the UK via Germany.

The 964 RS was launched in 1992 as a lightweight version of the Carrera 2 model, aiming to strike a balance between road and track use. Porsche engineers achieved this feat with extensive weight savings across the car using aluminium door panels and bonnet lid, thinner glass all around, magnesium wheels and removal of the power steering. This effort resulted in a substantial 155kg reduction compared with the standard Carrera 2. Coupled with a modified engine now producing 260bhp and a heavily revised suspension set-up, the car was appreciated immediately by enthusiasts for its direct and pure driving characteristics.

The car retains its original numbers matching engine and transmission and is presented in completely standard form having been used sparingly, now covering 37,200 miles. The car is completely original and in immaculate condition retaining its factory paint, as evidenced by paint depth reports. Perhaps most importantly, this RS drives as tightly as you would expect given the low mileage and careful ownership.

Unusually for a Japanese car, this 964 has an extensive history file documenting its life in Tokyo including its original service manual and maintenance notebook and two full Japanese maintenance booklets detailing its thorough service history. Extensive efforts have been made to translate these documents to confirm the car’s outstanding originality.

 Having sold several 964 RS in the last year, our enthusiasm for the model is well-known.  While benefitting from modern electronics and safety features such as ABS, they still embody the purity and spirit of the early Sports Purpose cars.

Criticised by journalists when new for their uncompromising set-up, these cars now feel vibrant and alive, giving the driver a level of feedback and direct involvement that is perhaps missing from more recent iterations of the RS catalogue.

On a more aesthetic level, the 964 RS looks stunning. It is of course the last air-cooled model to retain the visual identity of the earliest 911s and the lowered ride height and RS details combine to give the car a subtle look of sporting intent.
