1991 Porsche 911 Carrera 4
For consignment, a 1991 Porsche 911 Carrera 4. The four in this instance indicated AWD drive and here's a 911 that has been driven and enjoyed. In a world where so many special cars are saved for special drives only, it's nice to represent one that gave many miles of good times and driving enjoyment. It's not without some risk, as we'll learn, but this is one you don't have to lose sleep over worrying about its first rock chip. This car will come with the original window sticker.
Exterior
This ten footer is coated in two stage Black paint, and everyone knows, black 911's are the best. This particular bit of bias has been extruded from years in Los Angeles where anyone who was someone drove a black 911 in the early 90's. Anyway, 911's would get progressively larger over the years, but the 964 retains a tossable size, and this one is not overwhelmed with bulging fenders nor giant tails. There's no chrome here, the headlight rings, mirrors, door handles, lettering, and grille are black as night. The only bit of metal is the epic Porsche badge on the frunk while the rear tail lights and reflector spans the entire rear in red. As far as imperfections, the paint could use a deep detail as it has numerous water spots and other blemishes that normal waxing won't address. There are some inclusions in the finish, a few rock chips on the nose, some scrapes on the lip, scratching on the rear bumper, some worn paint by wheel openings, and some separation on the stone guards.
Interior
Not one we commonly see here at the mall, the interior reveals the Magenta option and appears in multiple hues on the door panel, a combination of stitched leather, plastic, and a carpeted footer. The sport bucket seats, also magenta, are tall backed and the driver's side wear tells the story of a car well driven, while the passenger seat shows minimal creasing. The front seats have light colored sides which blend into the darker purple rather than having a delineated separation. The 2+2 rear seats are better suited as storage of course, and the driver's side bottom shows some damage in the magenta leather. Some leather is peeling from the rim of the steering wheel but otherwise the magenta center is in good condition and the black surround on the gauge cluster houses clear, large circular gauges. Sandwiched by purple dash elements, a black band of controls and the AM/FM/CD radio runs boldly across the face and a personalized Porsche plate is affixed to the black in front of the passenger. The shifter shows some age as the handle is quite worn, however, the purple boot is intact, emerging from the magenta colored console on magenta carpet that covers the floor and footwells and on the driver's side. It shows some wear and soil, evidence of a car that was well loved. A perforated headliner also shows some wear, loose in areas, but is fully intact and surrounds a sunroof.
Drivetrain
Porsche's venerable 3.6 liter SOHC flat 6 cylinder sits in back, fuel injected and rowed by a 5-speed manual transmission splitting power between front and back where 3.44 gearing is found. Power disc brakes are found front and rear. The engine is rated at 247 horsepower.
Undercarriage
With all the markings of a car that was not a garage queen, this car presents in driver quality condition. Surface rust, oil seepage, and some grime is noted around the engine and transmission. The CV and other boots are intact, and bushings look good. We note some invasive rust just behind the front axle and suspension components. MacPherson struts live up front while coil overs and Bilstein shocks occupy the rear independent suspension. Dual exhaust leaves the engine and has a short trip to a single but sizable exhaust tip that exits under the right rear.
Drive-Ability
Car currently does not start, however it does turn over. The fuel pump and DME relay appear to be working as they should, but the car does not start.
Ever dream of having a Porsche 911 you can take anywhere, drive in the snow, and still look cool? Porsche doesn't build cars to sit in a garage and yet more than half of them generally do. Low mileage is great but having a higher mileage "driver" has its advantages. Life's too short to drive boring cars, they say, and this would be anything but boring. That said, you could also restore this car and retire it from daily use. Either way, nice find!
