Nick please never stop with the dainty kinda classical music, it’s the reason I subbed to you all those years ago

[@GLAXxan]

I LOVE the music!

[@OMGWTFLOLSMH]

Driving through the mountains in a classic 911 listening to classical music is sublime. Tchaikovsky - Waltz of the Flowers.

I miss these “simple” Porsche’s

[@Nord_Mann]

Definitively my favorite generation 911. Having owned 4 964’s and driven maybe 20 different cars over the years, I feel like they fit me like a glove. Besides, the 964Turbo I recently sold, were the king of the showrooms back in 1991 when I got my driving license, so I’ll forever be connected to these lovely small cars. I reckon I’ll find a way to get another one into my garage before long. Actually strange not having one after all these years. Only downside is high maintenance as I’m a little OCD in keeping them absolutely spotless and their mechanicals in pristine condition. That can be a little exhausting when parts are not always easy to come by and specialist shops are 2 days drive away. My favorite thus far: 1990 C2 Convertible with the FVD 300hp kit and cup exhaust. Actually all my Carreras have been in this configuration and put down a much more significant sound and acceleration above 4500rpm than you got from this example Nick. If you get the Race kit instead of the Street kit, you actually elevate max rpm by 400, to 7200rpm and the initial rush at 4500 is superseded by a champagne “POP” at 5500 than runs like crazy all the way to 7200. A little known party-trick is to mix 30% of E85 into the Shell V-Power98/99. KABOOOM, and another 50hp can be felt by the “butt-o-meter". That is, if you have the Race version of the LB2-300 kit. Complete that with a RS-LWFW, cup exhaust, 100-cell sport cat, RS clutch, PSS10 suspension and a strut bar, you’ve got yourself a kick-ass Magnus Walker killing Outlaw 964.

[@DrivenNotHidden]

This car has a lot of those upgrades mentioned. Nick was too excited to remember all of the special features.

I’m glad 964s are starting to get more attention lately. I love mine, it is just the right size, and with a just few mods these things are surprisingly capable.

[@indianarunner8836]

Thanks for the review of the 964, Nick! It's my favorite Porsche. Really appreciate your sense of humor, honest comments and thorough reviews of Porsches.

[@HexaSquirrel]

What a beautiful 964 example. Thanks again for the video, Nick!

[@sal1520]

Nick , a huge thank you for reviewing the iconic 964. You’re such a gentleman Classic guy and above all a Porsche enthusiastic ! I enjoy watching your channel in the morning with coffee plus the classical music while watching the review fixes the mood in the morning 😄 Thanks for the hard work and effort to show us great cars 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@sergduchini7299]

I am lucky to own 1990 964 C4 and a 997.2 4S and I still really love taking the 964 for a blast. It’s slower and less refined but never fails to bring a smile. Thanks for the video.

[@bradoldham1122]

You are truly a purist. BRAVO! Great video...as always.

[@JMacGyver1]

There is nothing like having friends with great classic cars like this 964. Great video, as always Nick!

[@bisondacierr]

Awesome, as a 964 owner delighted to see others love the "black sheep" it was for years.

[@prodrivebrasil]

Maaaaan, what a beautiful car! I always wanted to see a review of a 964. Thanks Nick!

[@spdandpwr]

Actually that acceleration from 80+ was pretty impressive to me. It's really the sensation of speed that I enjoy from older cars than anything else. Nice video, per usual

[@Seitsneddeppat]

Appreciated the video Nick! also the color combination of this 964 is spectacular - really like it (and I am usually the black on black type).

[@Number27]

Little known that those vacuum lines to the lights never worked properly so Porsche ended up not using seals in the lights of the later 964s. Great to see you again my Kiwi 🥝 inspiration!

[@edjustice7755]

Thanks for a great video as always!! This was the same ext color car I attended an import inspection while working overseas. Still remember how beautiful it looked and still does. Thanks again for the share.

Baltic Blue, I think I've died and gone to Heaven.

[@tonychiarizzi7574]

Thanks Nick for a blast to the past. I’ve been driving new 911s since the mid-70s, and the 964 body is one of my faves. Awesome color. I’m waiting for Porsche to introduce their new “Shark Blue”.

[@romulus_]

one of the best color combinations on one of their most beautiful cars. love the 964, hope to own one someday.

[@Xav911]

What a great spec on this one. That color looks magnificent.

Man that is such a beautiful color on that 964. Your friend is very lucky!

[@drwindsurf]

Beautiful, thank you Nick 😊👍

[@zTheBigFishz]

I loved mine. Bought one in '14 ('92 C2, 26k miles, Midnight Blue over Linen, absolutely cherry, etc) drove it for about a year then moved on...a sale I regret to this day. Mine had a Bilstein PSS coilovers and a Cup Pipe. They sound great with a Cup Pipe, so if you get a 964 spring for the Cup Pipe.

[@borjastick]

I had one of these from nearly new in 1993. It was a red Carrera 4 and I loved it. Hard as nails, lovely to drive in and out of London every day. Solid and never had to worry about it being a soft touch. Excellent fuel economy too. The only issue for me was the offset driving position. You say light but the C4 was heavy as ----. Also in Europe the standard wheel was different to your mate's wheels as were the mirrors, which were the square flat jobbies.

[@Mowser63]

You`re an artist nick. A damn good one at that. I dont know of anyone as good as you to portray a cars uninteresting and weak features in a way that sway they viewer into believing they`re interesting and just what he or she wants. Thanks nick. I now want to retromod vacuum hoses into my lamps....

[@gregs8685]

I had a few of these over the years, great cars. Had their problems, like all 911s, but a great combination of old (shape, floor hinged pedals) with more modern upgrades like decent a/c , power steering and coil over suspension. I wish I still had them!

[@Grenyas]

Absolutely love 964s. I especially love those wheels. Can't afford either one though. lol

[@SelfishGreedyCapitalist]

[@MrWxerby]

[@MrWxerby]

[@HeidiandFranny]

Thanks for that Nick. I haven't seen much of the 964. It is interesting to see one foot in the 3.2 world and one in the 993 world. That is a very nice example. Just a great car! F

[@mkultra501]

Nick can we have more aircraft reviews,yours are the best! Thanks

[@dapoajayi7463]

My buddy used to own the car in the video. He let me drive it, and it was an awesome experience. Even though sub 300hp transitioning from 2nd to 3rd gear on a highway ramp is still lots of fun. Demand for these must be high bc we barely made it around the block and someone offered to buy it at a red light.

Great video.

[@markdavis911time]

Hey Nick, love the video 👍 Totally agree, "when it comes to Porsche, less is more": On the road, the simple sloping back and classic 911 silhouette are so much more appealing, than the bespoilered Motorsport wannabe look - at least in my opinion. Looks like your friend's got a real peach there!! Oh and he definitely ought to refit the fogs 😆

[@NotCommanderShepard]

I thoroughly enjoyed this video, you fruit. Thank you.

[@horatiotimewaster5755]

Beautiful. Love the 964. Seemed to be a real step ahead of the previous cars.. The previous generation had aircon, but it just didn't work very well.

[@azaz911c]

The 964 is my favourite 911 in terms of aesthetics. It looks like a little bomb on wheels.

[@RobG001]

Great stuff, looking forward to your next one. :) (yep, I watched to the end, sad I know)

[@GlennsCarCollection]

I went back and forth between this and the 993. In the end I chose the 993 Turbo. I bought it 6 years ago when they were at the bottom of the market. I sold it last year for double what I paid in 2014. The 964 and 993 are both great cars

[@grnpnzer]

Agreed. It's great to see this car reviewed. A nice nostalgic ride in a 964. But in all honesty....not where i would go with my " 911 " dollars. To each his own.

[@Kamakaz]

nice ride

[@astenmorganjr3585]

Nick the 964 was from 89 to 94 model years so that's six years. I believe you stated four. Great video. I've got a 91 Turbo! #manualsmatter

[@NickMurray]

Sort of. They were introduced in late December 1989 so you can count 89 but there was only a handful of car so the years of production were really 90,91,92,93 then part of 94. So let say almost 5 years!

[@Boxsta_57]

Great color

[@MonteiroM]

As Nick, the car is beautiful.

[@emixmim]

Looking forward to a review Nick. Also you vaguely remind me of a cartoon turtle.

[@shmulikanglister]

I agree. The 964 and the 993 are the classic 911.

[@magicalminis597]

30 year nostalgia cycle in full force. Back in 1999 no one wanted these.(It was all 70's car nostalgia back then) Now every guy in his 40s/50s wants one of these....like myself

[@jonwarshawsky5288]

True. But a lot of us just can’t get excited about the increasing size and complexity of the newer Porsches, Ferraris, etc. The 911-964 were classically simple and feel like sports cars. The 864 is likely the most modern “vintage” car you can buy. A/c works fine, brakes are great, and it’s properly loud. I suspect this is more than a nostalgia cycle.

[@mohamadjamil3164]

Had one for a like three years. Was my daily driver. The car design is the most beautiful for me and it is very difficult to maintain. The engine just cools itself and leaks as if there is no tomorrow. Very difficult to drive and you arrive full of sweat even for a 10 minutes ride. The car is beautiful and needy

[@pappyodanial]

Sat in one in a showroom about 20 years ago. Immediately after shutting the door, and feeling/hearing the way the door shut and the way the switch gear worked and the pedals... I immediately said wow I get it. I get why these are a thing beyond the hype and the way they look. Sadly, the new ones don't have that same loud CLICK when you open/close the door and the old ones are just more overvalued than a Chinese bank.

[@lollypop9580]

Such a Nice color combo. Your model got the airbag and NO rear wiper. 😍

[@mudemmeonick]

The Carrera 2 (964) is one of the best Porsches in a long long time. Best all around 911 by far.

[@mudemmeonick]

Hey Nick, maybe you could do a video on how Porsches from that era benefit from the parts interchangeability. Much alike how that Californian photographer was able to pretty much build a bullet proof "RSR" with parts bin bits and bobs.

[@vuk8985]

Love how you rev up the rpm's and get passed up by a Honda minivan.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣👌👌👌😁

[@kofiofosu9051]

Got a 964 a few years ago from an older mechanic. Made sense because it was much cheaper than a used ‘08 997 was going to cost after my lease was up. It’s quirkier, slower and raspier than the more sophisticated 997. I’ll drive it however until I’m physically no longer able. 964s really have their own beautiful souls.
