Bought a 964 C4

Greetings, peeps. I just purchased a 94 C4 and couldn't be more excited. I currently drive an E36 M3 and have been searching for over 6 months and finally found my baby:

2-owner car
Grand Prix White/Cashmere
77K miles
Turbo Speedlines, Turbo S spoiler, Techart springs, front splitters
thorough records with immaculate interior and paint, no leaks, well maintained, etc.

The former owner had the car for the past 3 years and only put about 400 miles on the car since he purchased it from a friend, only driving it on weekends. I had some concerns about it not being driven much but it passed the PPI with flying colors: needs some new bulbs and an oil change. There is some minor "dampness" on a lower valve cover (no drips). I am so **** about my cars that I decided to get a new valve gasket when the oil gets changed. Otherwise, it is in fine mechanical shape and needs nothing else.

These pics were taken by the former owner. I'll post my own as soon as I can. No mod plans, other than updgrading the headlights. Are there projector headlights available for these cars? Thanks for any comments and advice. Jim

I'm looking forward to meeting everyone in the NW Porsche scene. BTW, anyone know if I can swap a 964 OEM spoiler/rear deck with my Turbo S spoiler? I love the new car, but the Turbo S spoiler is a bit much for me.

964s are underrated. I love the classic look. One suggestion - replace the anachronistic wing with the 930/965 turbo wing. That would give your car the turbo 3.6 look.

As for the headlights, they don't make projectors for the 964s.

Great looking 964, I love the rims! That interior is so clean!

No projector HL, but you can get the Euro HL, & you can also put in HID.

It will be nice to see another aircooled NA 911 out there!
