RS Coupe (1992-1994)

Can you afford a 1992-1994 Porsche 911 RS Coupe?

The 1992-1994 Porsche 911 RS Coupe (964) is a track-focused evolution of the Carrera 2. Stripped of amenities for weight reduction, it received rave reviews for its raw, unfiltered driving experience and razor-sharp handling. Famous for its lightweight philosophy and motorsport pedigree, the 964 RS is highly sought after by collectors and driving enthusiasts. In today's context, it’s best suited for spirited weekend drives, track days, and as a prized collectible for those who appreciate pure, analog sports cars.

Owning a 1992-1994 Porsche 911 RS Coupe 964 entails unique operating expenses. Reliability is generally high for this era of 911, but specific concerns can include aging seals, potential oil leaks, and wear on suspension components due to its performance-oriented design. Maintenance costs are higher than average for a standard car, driven by specialized parts and labor required for a vintage Porsche. Common unusual costs include routine engine-out services, clutch replacements, and upkeep of the complex air-cooled engine. Insurance costs can be substantial due to the car's value, performance, and collectible status, often requiring agreed-value policies.
