Has anyone noticed just how popular on a global scale 964's are at present.
Not only do you have the very active 964 Rennlisters, dedicated Facebook groups one of which consists of over 11k members but also many other global FB groups and clubs.

Quite a rise from the unloved 911 5yrs back.

What's the huge fascination all of a sudden ?

With a chassis set up and some exhaust bypassery, it is the best of all the 911's to drive for all round goodness. The veritable sweet spot in the line up. The 3.2 is a bit too old and the 993 is a bit too new.

The market is understanding this, and that the original press reviews of carrera 4's with 3 inch front wheelarch gaps, and the fact that some cars needed oil leaks fixed, is all irrelevant now. In fact, Evo came to the same conclusion when they reviewed everything from 60's 911 to 991..

Edit: They also quite liked the 996 wink
Edit 2:964 Service interval is 12k miles..
