For Sale at Auction: 1992 Porsche 911 Turbo in Amelia Island, Florida for sale in Yulee, FL
Vehicle Description Chassis No.
WP0AA2962NS480221 Engine No.
61N00741 By 1989, the 'G-body' 911 that had captivated audiences since the 1974 Frankfurt Motor Show and catapulted the Porsche brand to new heights was 15 years old.
A restyle was long overdue, and in 1989, the Carrera 4 and Carrera 2 debuted the 911's svelte new look.
Internally named the 964, the updated body borrowed styling cues from the curvaceous, aerodynamic 959, wearing more form-fitting front and rear bumpers and streamlined side sills.
The 959's influence continued underneath the new panels, with the traditional torsion bar front suspension replaced by coil springs and shocks, in addition to power-steering and anti-lock brakes making their first appearance on a series production 911.
Expected by many, the new 911 Turbo followed in March of the following year, powered by the proven air-cooled, turbocharged 3.
3-liter flat-six that had been in the back of the Turbo since 1978.
Now making 320-horsepower, the era-defining 3.
3 would last just two more years.
In essence, the 1990 - 1992 3.
3-liter Turbo was an even more refined version of the legendary and already well-appointed 930 with the most luxurious interior ever fitted to a 911, featuring full leather upholstery, power-adjustable front seats, dual airbags, air conditioning, and electric windows as standard.
Finished in Germany's national racing shade of Grand Prix White, this left-hand drive 911 Turbo was completed on 26 July 1991, equipped from the factory with black leather and leatherette upholstery, power-adjustable front sports seats, an electric sliding power-sunroof, Alpine 'CD-2' CD radio, and as a nod to subtlety, rear badge delete.
According to the accompanying clean Carfax report, the 911 was first registered in Ohio to a Dr.
Kathryn Schramm, and remained in the Savannah, Ohio area for nearly three decades.
In January 2022, this example received a detailed service which included new spark plugs, fuel and air filters, trunk and deck lid struts, resealing the valve covers, installation of a Bilstein PSS10 suspension kit, converting and recharging the A/C system, and a full fluid change.
Following completion of all the mentioned work, a test drive revealed an oil leak, prompting the 911 to be returned to Avant-Garde Collection in Portland, Oregon for a full engine-out service in February 2022.
The major service involved carefully disassembling and resealing the entire engine as well as the turbo scavenge pump and oil lines, refinishing the cooling fan and tin engine surrounds, and tuning for drivability.
Images and invoices in excess of $17,000 convey the exceptional standard to which this 911 Turbo has been prepared.
Shortly after the engine reseal at an indicated 17,905 miles, this 3.
3 Turbo was acquired by the consignor in April 2022.
In the months since, the car has only accumulated only a couple hundred additional miles and remains in excellent condition.
The factory Grand Prix White paintwork is said to show original paint thickness on all measurable panels, metering at four to six mils all around - a good indicator of the car's level of originality - while the leather seats and plastic touch-points exhibit remarkably little wear.
It still sits on its original set of staggered 17-inch Cup wheels now shod with Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 tires that show 2020 production codes.
Offered with its original suspension, this extremely rare 964 Turbo is ready to be experienced just as the engineers in Stuttgart intended, for its epic handling and the rapidly climbing torque curve of its turbocharged, air-cooled flat-six.
