Home/Price Trends/964 Turbo & Turbo S
The coveted transitional generation · 1991-1994The Turbo 3.3, the Turbo 3.6 and the Turbo S special series compared: market phases since 2012, an investment assessment and a forecast to 2030, plus, for the June 2026 update, 86 documented sales records from the MarqueScope SOLD archive.
The Porsche 964 was an important transitional generation of the legendary 911, built from 1989 to 1994. The Turbo variants of the 964 are today among the most coveted and most value-stable collector's cars in Porsche history. This analysis compares the price development of the most important Turbo models of the series: the 964 Turbo 3.3 (built 1991-1992, 320 PS, 3,660 cars), the 964 Turbo 3.6 (built 1993-1994, 360 PS, 1,407 cars) and the rare Turbo S variants, above all the 964 Turbo S Leichtbau (built 1992, based on the Turbo 3.3, 381 PS, extremely rare at 86 cars).
The Turbo variants were offered exclusively as Coupés with rear-wheel drive.
For the June 2026 update, the analysis was supplemented by 86 documented sales records from the MarqueScope SOLD archive (October 2025 to June 2026). Seven cars appeared in more than one source at the same time; such duplicate listings are counted as one sale each and are shown in the sales data section. Figures up to 2025 are average prices, the 2026 figures median sale prices; this change of method is declared in every table and chart.

The most important observations
Particularly notable: while both models still had a similar market value in 2012, in May 2025 the Turbo 3.6 sat around 47 per cent above the Turbo 3.3, an expression of growing specialisation in the market and of the regard for the rarer, more powerful variant. The median sale prices from June 2026 draw an even clearer picture: at €445,000 against €220,000, the Turbo 3.6 most recently traded at roughly twice the Turbo 3.3; the step up from May 2025 reflects the change of method from average price to median sale price as well as the dynamics of the market.
86 documented sales records for the 964 Turbo from the MarqueScope SOLD archive (October 2025 to June 2026; records without a price and below €15,000 removed globally). Prices correspond to the last recorded asking price of the car sold. Seven cars appeared in more than one source at the same time (four in the 3.3 cell, three in the 3.6 cell); these duplicate listings are counted as one sale each, so the 86 records correspond to 79 cars. This has practically no effect on the medians: deduplicated, €217,500 instead of €220,000 for the Turbo 3.3, unchanged at €445,000 for the Turbo 3.6.
| Model | Sales | Median | Range | Median km | Days on market |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 964 Turbo 3.3 (1991-1992) | 48 | €220,000 | €48,000 - €1,500,000 | 97,800 | 22 days |
| 964 Turbo 3.6 (1993-1994) | 30 | €445,000 | €348,000 - €850,000 | 98,600 | 54 days |
| 964 Turbo WLS (factory power enhancement) | 4 | €307,450 | €185,000 - €476,000 | 103,916 | 4 days |
| 964 Turbo S Leichtbau (cleaned) | 2 of 3 | €1,600,000 | €1,400,000 - €1,800,000 | 10,335 | 0 days |
| 964 Turbo Flachbau (first registered 1994) | 1 | €1,190,270 | - | 38,056 | 15 days |
Both extremes of the 3.3 cell should be read with caution: the €48,000 record is listed as a Tiptronic, but from the factory the 964 Turbo came exclusively with a manual gearbox, which suggests a project car or a recording error. The €1,500,000 record concerns a partly restored 1990 car far outside the market band, presumably a car with special status or, again, a recording error. Neither end affects the median. In the Turbo S Leichtbau cell, a third record at €32,965 was excluded as a clear recording error: the figure is implausible for a collector car trading in seven figures, and the other sales in the same cell stand at €1.4m and €1.8m. The two Leichtbau cars counted (first registered 1992) showed 600 km and 20,070 km; a time on the market of 0 days means the car was already marked as sold when it was first recorded. First registrations in the 3.3 cell range from 1990 to 1993 in the archive (the core being 1991/1992). Cells with fewer than 8 sales (WLS, Turbo S Leichtbau, Flachbau) are only of limited reliability. Every 964 Turbo left the factory with a manual gearbox; isolated automatic or Tiptronic flags in the archive are platform noise, so no comparison of transmissions is made.
In this early phase the prices of the two models were still close together:
This phase marks the most dramatic rise in the whole period observed:
After the explosive growth came a phase of consolidation:
Contrary to the narrative of a steady rise that has dominated so far, the chart shows a clear phase of correction:
After the correction, a renewed and this time differentiated upward trend set in:
Forecast for 2030: around €190,000-€210,000
Forecast for 2030: around €320,000-€350,000
Forecast for 2030: around €800,000-€950,000
A more complex picture than assumed
Advantages: Good value for money within the segment; moderate but steady growth in value since the 2019-2021 correction; more robust engineering than the 3.6.
Disadvantages: Higher production numbers; less exclusivity; less dynamic price development than the 3.6.
Conclusion: A solid investment with moderate upside. Particularly recommendable for enthusiasts who also want to drive the car. The price difference from the 3.6 (€75,000 on the average figures from May 2025, and as much as €225,000 on the median sale prices from June 2026) makes the 3.3 the more attractive way into the world of the 964 Turbos.
Advantages: Considerably rarer than the 3.3; stronger growth in value; currently very dynamic price development; greater performance potential.
Disadvantages: A high entry price (average figure May 2025: around €235,000; median sale price June 2026: €445,000); a tendency towards higher volatility, as seen in the 2019-2021 correction.
Conclusion: A very good investment with above-average potential for growth in value. The current strong upward trend could, however, indicate short-term overheating. A tactical entry after a possible consolidation could make sense.
Advantages: The most extreme rarity of the 964 range; the highest power output; iconic status; excellent stability in value.
Disadvantages: A very high entry price; low market liquidity on account of the rarity.
Conclusion: A premium investment with excellent long-term potential, though realistic only for wealthy collectors. The extreme rarity (Leichtbau: only 86 cars) should protect the Turbo S from stronger market corrections. The documented sales from June 2026 (€1.19m to €1.8m) confirm its special position.
| Budget | Recommended | Reasoning |
|---|---|---|
| up to €250,000 | 964 Turbo 3.3 (1991-1992) | The largest supply in the series (48 sales records), median sale price €220,000; condition and history decide where a car sits in the enormous range |
| €250,000-€350,000 | 964 Turbo WLS | The rare factory power enhancement as an intermediate step, median sale price €307,450 (only 4 sales, of limited reliability) |
| €350,000-€500,000 | 964 Turbo 3.6 (1993-1994) | A considerably smaller run than the 3.3, the best documented price dynamics, median sale price €445,000 |
| from €1m | 964 Turbo S Leichtbau / Flachbau | The collector league, with documented sales between €1.19m and €1.8m |

The Porsche 964 Turbos combine historical significance, technical refinement and limited availability: a combination that will secure them a special status among collectors and investors in the long term too.
