A nice pair of Porkers for a collection!!
Discussion
I have no connection with the garage advertising these, but noticed a couple of real gems currently for sale that may be forum interested to fellow Porsche nuts.
Porsche 964 Turbo S..........13k miles
www.gmundcars.com/cars/541/964turbos.html
The ex Nick Faldo 1/6 uk cars.
Although this is a lot of money, it makes you think in value terms when compared to equivalent rhd 993 GT2 prices.
This is to my mind effectively a Gt2 in that it is a non standard turbos lump with lightened body and mostly RS running gear...
The second candidate for the collection;
Porsche 964 RS Clubsport NGT..............8k miles
www.gmundcars.com/cars/537/964rsngtclubsport.html
Now this car is in a very rare colour and looks amazing.
Unfortunately it may well be too good and has become a garage queen ( Hi Lee
)
Price wise, it certainly wouldn't be underpriced, but I fear a years use of mixed road and track would make quite a serious dent on the cars value......hope to see it a Porsche show over the next year.
Mods, in light of recent posts...please delete above if I have broken the rules.....
Just thought others may be interested in less run of the mill cars

Interesting that they're happy to have a DB7 Vantage in stock .... I'd love that Turbo S. A friend of my fathers has one of the "other" RHD ones without the lairy interior. Considering they were £128k new and after a spirited lap round the Ring, I'd have one at that price!!!
£62k for a LHD 964rs seems steep to me, even if it is factory fresh?
Edited to ask, if it an be justified at that price, whats so different about it compared to a normal RS clubsport?
Good colour though!!

I saw these up at Gmund last week, the 964 CS is absolutely stunning, perfect in fact.
The Turbo S,is a cast iron investment but needs some TLC, it's not rough or abused, but needs lots of TLC like the wheels refurbed and someone with the patience of a saint to detail the paintwork (it's gloss black) I'm guessing it's hard work to drive being a LWT RS chassis and a big HP single turbo engine !
The doors, boot lid and engine cover/spoiler are a work of art, all in all a very rare and desirable beast.
I'd personally have Andrews mint, mint green 964 RS though ! If that makes sense.

Slippy, I have to agree with you...I too have a soft spot verging on manic desire when it comes to 64RS in mint green
C'mon Paul... go for a nice 64RS - that Signal Green one looks even nicer than Mint Green and I never thought I'd say that
Or do you have your beady eye on something else and are just waiting for the planets to align?Dom, agree the signal car looks great,,,but as I mentioned I think it has gone too far into garage queen/museum territory that if you actually used and enjoyed it you could easily wipe 10k+ from it's value very quickly....not my style
There was a car I was interested in that unfortunately went to a collector in the far east,,,nothing immediately on the horizon, just keeping myself liquid so I am able to act fast if the right car appears.......one day?

The RS is identical to my 91 car (albeit mine was RHD) - how I miss that car !!!
Wow! that is ultra rare....exactly how many Rhd NGT Clubsport cars did they make????[/quote}
OOps sorry guys! Didn't mean to imply it was NGT spec. - it was an "identical looking" - 964 RS in Lightweight trim that happened to be signal green - the only RHD made I believe.
