911 Carrera 4 30th Anniversary

1993–1994Coupé

Introduced at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1993 under internal code M096, the “30 Jahre” 911 marked thirty years of the 911 and was the most sought-after 964 special. Under the wide Turbo body it combined the naturally aspirated M64 engine and the all-wheel-drive running gear of the Carrera 4 with the Coupé shell and 17-inch wheels of the 911 Turbo, but without the Turbo's rear wing — it kept the standard small lifting spoiler. The exterior was offered in just three colours: Viola Metallic, Polar Silver and Amethyst, with a full leather interior in Rubicon Grey and a stylised 911 script underlined with “30 Jahre” on the engine lid. The 911 sold out quickly, and the wide-body all-wheel-drive concept carried straight on into the 993 Carrera 4S and then the 996 Carrera 4S.
