965 turbo s (Black) The one out of bad boys film !

>>> Edited by phib on Thursday 3rd February 09:53


(Get ready for the trainspotting!)

Actually the car in Bad Boys is a standard 965 turbo 3.6. The turbo S was an earlier car (381bhp).

There is actually a 965 turbo 3.6 S, but it's seriously rare beast with 385bhp and 968 headlights(honest). They are the very last 965s in 1994. I've never seen one, and only know about it from the fantastic 964 Companion's guide.

I know that in the film Smith says "it's a limited edition" and matey goes on about it having no back seats, however they were both simply fibbing for effect.

Thinking about it, in reality it'd be a crying shame for someone like me to own my 'fantasy' list of Porsches.

The ultimate dream would therefore keep the 993 GT2, and swap the other 4 cars for some driving ability: like Rohrl or Stefan Roser would be good

Anyone else agree that having such fantastic cars without the skill to drive them *properly* would be a waste? Hell, I can only *just* slide my 'normal' 993 around, let alone post a fast 'Ring lap...

5- 993RS-CS, 9M screamer N/A engine, Maritime blue







Would you have a custom respray iguana? Or wouldn't you just settle for the standard Riviera blue?




Custom spray Johnny, Riviera is cool, just im a sucker for Maritime




Hey Iguana, have you seen this pic? I 100% agree that Maritime blue is boss:



At least I think it is Maritime, could be Riviera with a trick of the light?

Pulls book of train numbers out of pocket


Gant Speed in Lincs had a Flachbau 965 for sale about three years ago and I simply couldn’t get rid of my bloody Cerbera in time to buy it. The original owner had paid a mind bending £128k for it back in 94, that has to be one of the most expensive 911’s ever made? Nice mind!

Now down to business and in no particular order

930 Turbo ‘Martini’ with the full red white and blue interior
928 GTS – How a V8 Porsche should be
965 – Either as standard, S or Flachbau
956 – A car which defined the greatest race series ever, Group C?
917 – In full ‘Hippy’ colours
993 RSR – Maritime or Riviera blue naturally
Audi RS2 – A worthwhile 4wd, 4 door Porsche?
968 CS – But a Turbo would be even better!

And to me pretty much any Porsche looks best in either Riviera or Maritime.

hmm dunno really, does perhaps look more Riviera to me.


Maritime-



I'm being a bit pedantic about the colours really, but hey its my dreamland garage but feck it I'd have it in Dulux white house paint put on with a roller if I could actually have it

That's the best picture I've seen of it Steve. Anyone ever seen a RHD version, I've read that none exist.

Simon, see my post above. There are three or four if I recall correctly in RHD form and I have indeed driven one of them.

About three years ago it was up for £50k and to all intents and purposes is exactly the same as a regular 965 with the X88? Engine upgrade apart from the 928 type lights of course. We hit 170 with the garage owner at the wheel!
