There are cars that you see and immediately remember certain moments. A black-painted Porsche 911 (964) Turbo 3.6 is one such vehicle. In a matter of milliseconds, a movie starts up in your mind’s eye. Will Smith and Martin Lawrence in the cockpit. Music blares from the speakers and the lyrics: “Bad boys, bad boys whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do when they come for you?” The year was 1995, when this scene flickered across movie screens in the film “Bad Boys”. Today, 26 years later, the exact Porsche from the film is in the auction catalog of Mecum Auctions for the annual big auction in Kissimmee in early January 2022. While we won’t go into the film here (you can watch it at home if you like), the 911 Turbo from the 964 series is worth a closer look. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Porsche first installed a turbocharged boxer engine into the 911 in 1974, this sports car was soon baptized the “widowmaker”. Many drivers were simply overwhelmed by the vehement manner in which the boost pressure kicked in after a long turbo lag. As a result, the car proved difficult to handle. Over the years, Porsche continued to defuse the handling. With the change to the 964 series, the Turbo was dropped from the range for a few years. However, numerous customers no longer wanted to do without this variant. Three years later, therefore, the 911 (964) Turbo rolled into dealerships with the almost unchanged engine of the predecessor model and now 235 kW\/320 hp. However, since the normal 911 Carreras had gained in power in the meantime, the performance gap to the Turbo was no longer wide open. Once again there was criticism. Porsche took it to heart and in 1993 presented the 911 (964) Turbo 3.6 with 0.3 liters more displacement and 265 kW\/360 hp as well as 520 Nm of torque.<\/p>\n\n\n
