A 1990 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 coupe, originally built for the Canadian market and imported into the United States in December 2015, has been listed for sale in California. The car is finished in Silver Metallic over Marine Blue leather and is powered by a 3.6-litre air-cooled flat-six engine that drives all four wheels through a five-speed manual transaxle. It shows 189,000 kilometres, approximately 117,000 miles, on a six-digit odometer that remains in kilometres.
The seller purchased the car in December 2017 and has added roughly 7,000 kilometres since. The 964-generation Carrera 4 features a computer-controlled limited-slip differential, and the front differential was rebuilt in May 2020. Factory-rated output for the M64 flat-six is 247 horsepower and 228 lb-ft of torque. Recent maintenance in June 2026 included an oil change and replacement of the fuel filter, air filter, intake plenums, valve cover gaskets, and spark plugs. Compression test ratings from that time are available in the gallery.
Equipment includes 17-inch Cup wheels wrapped in Hankook Ventus V12 Evo2 tyres, Bilstein PSS10 coilovers, a sunroof, heated power-adjustable front sport seats, a MOMO three-spoke steering wheel, a Blaupunkt Bremen SQR 46 DAB head unit, cruise control, and air conditioning. Braking is handled by four-wheel ventilated discs with ABS. The brake fluid was flushed in June 2026, and the brake pads are said to have been replaced at that time. The pedal bushings were replaced in October 2018, and a fire extinguisher is secured ahead of the passenger seat.
The exterior features a speed-activated rear spoiler, an electric sunroof, integrated fog lights, headlight washers, a rear window wiper, and heated power-adjustable side mirrors. The front bumper covers were repainted under current ownership, and the seller believes the hood has also been refinished. A Carfax report lists «very minor damage» in an August 2020 entry. The car most recently passed a California emissions test in July 2026.
Inside, the heated power-adjustable front bucket sport seats are upholstered in Marine Blue leather, complemented by a colour-coordinated dash, centre console, and door panels. The MOMO steering wheel frames VDO instrumentation including a central tachometer with a 6,800-rpm redline, a Quarz analogue clock, and gauges for oil level, oil pressure, oil temperature, and fuel level. A 200-mph speedometer has been fitted. Amenities include power windows, cruise control, and air conditioning.
The option sticker decodes to confirm Silver Metallic paint, Marine Blue leather, Canadian-market specification, seat heating for both front seats, sport seats on the left and right, a Blaupunkt Reno SQR 46 cassette radio, a stronger windscreen washer, headlamp washers, a rear-window wiper, cruise control, a sound system with amplifier, and a power sunroof. The car is offered with the owner's manual, service records, and a clean California title in the seller's name.
