The third generation of the Porsche 911, the Type 964, debuted in 1989 and featured for the first time Porsche’s Tiptronic automatic transmission. This era was also when the one-make series for the Porsche 911, the Carrera Cup and the Super Cup debuted, which opened the door to a wide range of users and laid the foundation for the modern era.

The Type 964 featured a host of developments over its predecessor, the Type 930. Not only the engine, but also the powertrain, drive system, and various equipment were thoroughly reviewed. The suspension was changed from a torsion bar to a coil spring type, and modern equipment such as power steering and ABS were installed, greatly improving operability.

In addition, a 4WD model was added, and the new Tiptronic automatic transmission was introduced, which allowed for manual-like operation. This Tiptronic transmission had a major impact on the entire industry as the original mechanism for the manual feel that is now commonplace in today's automatic transmissions.

This particular example is a 2WD model of the Type 964, known as the 911 Type 964 Carrera 2 Tiptronic. The most notable feature is that this is a right-hand drive vehicle delivered by Mizwa, the sole official importer of Porsches at the time. Although the number of right-hand drive Porsches has increased significantly since the Type 997, right-hand drive examples of the air-cooled models are extremely rare.

The rarity of right-hand drive examples of this model make it a highly desirable example. The odometer shows 78,000 km, which is difficult to see from the beautiful condition of the interior and exterior. Finished in a striking Midnight Blue pearl with black interior, this is an example ideal for regular use in a RHD country.
