A full custom restoration by Abreu Motors, this 1989 Porsche 964 Carrera 4 Coupe has been fitted with backdated long hood bodywork, a bespoke leather and suede interior, upgraded Brembo brakes, Ohlins suspension, and a rebuilt 3.9-liter flat-six engine. Finished in Basalt Black Metallic, it also showcases 17” Fuchs-style wheels, 9Eleven headlights, Vitesse Classic bucket seats, vintage Tag Heuer rally timers, custom 935-style aluminum exhaust tips, a carbon fiber strut tower brace, Wevo engine mounts, an electric A/C system, a Porsche Classic (PCCM) stereo, and a Harmony sound system. This no-expense-spared 964 backdate is now being offered for auction out of Florida.
This 964 was disassembled, stripped, and refinished in Basalt Black Metallic (C9Z) along with the fitment of a custom backdated hood, fenders, bumpers, and decklid. The car received projector-style 9Eleven headlights, polished aluminum trim, a ducktail-style spoiler, a chrome decklid grille, gold badging, Mobil Pegasus fender decals, custom aluminum 935-style center-mounted tailpipes, dual polished aluminum mirrors, silver Brembo brakes calipers, and 17” Fuchs-style wheels with gold-painted centers. The seller notes the windshield and rear window were installed using OEM rubber seals and the full exterior is preserved under XPEL paint protection film.
The cabin features black leather and suede upholstery with deviated gold stitching, gold leather stripes, and a gold-painted lower tub. Details include custom Vitesse Classic sport seats with ventilation grommets, basketweave leather door panels with leather pull straps, a bespoke aluminum shifter, a leather-wrapped dashboard, a custom striped tachometer, polished aluminum accents, gold door strikers, a gold ignition lock surround, engraved “Sport Edition” door sills, and a leather-lined luggage compartment. The car also features ambient lighting, power door locks, an electric sunroof, a Porsche Classic Communication Management (PCCM) Bluetooth stereo, a Harmony sound system, an amplifier, an electric air conditioning system, and restored vintage Tag Heuer rally stopwatches mounted on the dashboard.
The car’s air-cooled M64 flat-six engine has been rebuilt and bored to a 3.9-liter displacement by Emegatronic of Connecticut. It features upgraded Wevo engine mounts, a custom carbon fiber cover, and a dual-exit exhaust system. A claimed output of approximately 330 HP is sent to all four wheels through a resealed 5-speed G50 manual transaxle. The car also features upgraded Bilstein coilovers, a carbon fiber front strut tower brace, and Brembo brakes with cross-drilled rotors. The seller is providing a 1-year/1k-mile warranty on the engine and transmission.
This sale will include a clean title.

@Lottacars Hey everyone, I’m back! Don’t hesitate to make us an offer. This car is one of the best I’ve ever built—it’s in incredible condition and runs perfectly, without any issues. The electric AC is working great. We spent over a year building this car, which reflects in the asking price. The new owner will be very pleased with the quality and handling. In fact, one of my clients with a similar model just entered it in a car show and took home first place! I’ll check with him about sharing a photo of the trophy.

@edgy4sure Absolutely 🏁
@AbreuMotors I'd love to visit sometime!
@twistedsociety Thank you, my friend. We currently don’t have any plans to auction a Supersport. These are custom builds, but you never know what might happen in the future.
That green Supersport looks absolutely stunning! Are you considering putting one up for auction in the future?
The car will include a stunning matching leather-bound book featuring all the photos from the restoration. I've also attached a photo for reference.

@edgy4sure Thank you! A great deal of love goes into crafting these cars. We may be a small shop, but we have big dreams, and we remain a highly boutique company.

@woopcar That's a great question. Unfortunately, the Supersport was constructed piece by piece, and these components won't fit the backdated models without modifications, which would defeat the purpose. The best approach is to build a Supersport from the ground up. I've just shared a photo of the Supersport, highlighting the significant differences.
this thing looks incredible - well done Abreu Motors!
Can this car be fitting with some of the bells and whistles of your other Supersport variants. Led rear lights and front turn signals?

@CharliesChopShop Hey everyone,
I just uploaded a quick one-minute driving video. It’s not high production—just something I recorded myself before the upcoming storm/rain. The car drives really smoothly and handles wonderfully.
@CharliesChopShop Hey there!
A storm is approaching, and it’s been raining here in Miami, If the weather improves a bit this morning, I can shoot a quick driving video. I’m sorry I didn’t get this done earlier in the week—I’ve been swamped with other things.
Hello everyone,
Let the bidding commence! To ensure fairness for all participants, I want to share that I've conducted six FaceTime videos with interested buyers. If you have any questions about the car or would like to request a video or FaceTime session, please don't hesitate to reach out. While I won't disclose any numbers or reserve prices, I'm here to provide all the information you need to bid confidently.
Good Morning, Any driving video you can upload?
Bid in the amount of $156,964
@Evo-Auto Absolutely 💪🏽🏁
@AbreuMotors Thank you for the response
Note: The 3.9L engine was rebuilt in collaboration with our friends at Emegatronic in Connecticut. Bore: 104mm, Stroke: 76.4mm. The engine is performing exceptionally well, with no oil leaks or seepage at all. 🏁🏁
@chuckent Vitesse Classic’s…👍🏼🏁
@Evo-Auto The car is equipped with the Porsche PCCM, designed by Porsche to offer contemporary music features while honoring the vehicle's heritage. The PCCM includes wired Apple CarPlay, which can be upgraded to a wireless connection using an Otto adapter. Although this particular car does not have the adapter installed, we have successfully added it to other vehicles.
How many miles has the car been driven since the re-build ?
Does this stereo have Apple Carplay?
@twistedsociety the cream one was a 1980ish SC and yes was a garage project. Sold on BAT for $55. The one I was referring to was guards red and very nice but not sure if it went for $300+.
What seats are in this car? very nice
@JJensen The odometer hasn't been changed since it was built; according to Carfax, it's the original factory odometer.
@Campopiano was that the cream one with brown interior? If so, I’ve seen it in person, and unfortunately, it leaves a lot to be desired. Especially when you compare it with this one. There is a night and day difference on the attention to detail.
Hello. was the odometer zeroed out at the time of the rebuild ?

Hi everyone,
I've just uploaded some crucial photos that highlight the raw undercarriage and the extensive work done on this car. Additionally, I plan to create a stunning booklet for the car with a beautifully matching leather cover.
Additional content has been added to the gallery for this listing.
Wow stunning. I have a 1990 964 that would look great with a backdate. Do your customers provide the donor? Would be interesting to know what the price range is toachieve this. Or maybe i should bid on this one :)
@SILOmike The factory weight of the Carrera 4 Coupe is approximately 3,200 lbs. After all the modifications, we've shed about 320 lbs, bringing our total down to around 2,880 lbs.
Bid in the amount of $135,000
What is the total weight of the car?
@Ace Hey there, my friend! I hope everything is going well. I trust you all are enjoying those amazing rides! 👍🏼🏁🏁
I have seen this car in person. It is spectacular and the level of detail is insane. I own two Abreu Motors Backdate’s. The time and quality that goes in these 911’s is amazing. Fabie’s cars are such a joy to ride and handle better then when they came from the factory.

@hattia I just uploaded a video of the cold start and takeoff. I’ll be making a short driving video later today.

Just a quick note: the car features a cool ambient lighting in the cabin, which can be adjusted using the black switch located to the left of the headlight knob. Additionally, the car will include a 40-page leather-bound book featuring several photos of the build process.
@ChadGee I appreciate the kind words! The car looks amazing in person and drives incredibly well. Since the engine is brand new, I didn't share any leak down or compression results. It does come with a warranty. I plan to take the car to a local dyno soon and will share the results here in a couple of days.
Absolutely stunning backdate 964! @abreumortors, with the 3.9L is this producing 330HP (and approx. how much torque)? Do you have a dyno sheet available you can post? Any compression test or leak down results? Thank you!
Bid in the amount of $129,964
Bid in the amount of $127,000
@Schwelk Thank you very much, my friend, for your kind words. It has been a genuine pleasure collaborating with you, and I've learned a lot from our time together. 💪🏽🏁
@Craiguf That's right, we're looking to sell this car and possibly move on to a Supersport car that I'm currently working on.
Bid in the amount of $125,000
@AbreuMotors Rebuilt 3 years ago; are you consigning for the original owner/customer who it was originally built for, or is this a personal car for you?
Please note: I have a batch of custom-ordered titanium hardware for these builds that are arriving In about five days, I will be going through the car to replace many of the standard nuts and bolts with titanium ones.
@hattia Yes, I will upload a video tomorrow.
@Craiguf That's right, the car was restored three years ago, and since the engine was rebuilt, it has barely been driven—under 700 miles.
Any chance to see a driving video …thanks
Beautiful example. Has this been owned since restomod? How many miles since engine rebuild?
Bid in the amount of $105,000
@flatcrank Yes, just contact me on Monday 👍🏼
Bid in the amount of $101,000
I plan on putting electric AC in my 993 … care to share some parts and details for the DIY? : )
Bid in the amount of $100,000
I have an Abreu build, and it is a stunner. Look at the details in the pics and compare vs. pretty much anything out there and it is a level above.......I am never selling mine, I am going to drive the wheels off of mine......so curious to see where this goes......
@twistedsociety Thanks for your visit my friend 💪🏽
Note: The carbon fiber engine cover can be easily removed if the new owner prefers the original factory appearance.
I have taken off the 911 emblem from the rear decklid. It was removed previously for PPF application and has since lost its original shape and attachment. I have a brand new emblem that can either be included with the car or installed here before it leaves.
@Jamesawinn77 Correct. 👍🏼
Did Abreu do the interior and trunk? The work is so good!
I like them, classic turbo flares sometimes make the car look heavy in the front. These are just right.
Additional content has been added to the gallery for this listing.
@chuckent These are metal flares. We created our own version, which is slightly narrower, but it still delivers that classic stance appearance.
Bid in the amount of $96,400
what flares are those. Looks great!
Hi everyone,
Today I’ll be uploading some undercarriage photos along with a startup video.
Wow, great attention to detail
Bid in the amount of $89,000
@BoxsterGT Apologies for the typo. I meant to say that all our cars have metal flares.
@SILOmike Braid Wheels. I completed the braid in satin with a gold color.
@BoxsterGT All of cars are metal.
Who manufactured the wheels?
Backdate Steel or Fiberglass?
It drives / sounds even better than it looks. Fabi Abreu really did a great job on this one.
Bid in the amount of $19,089
Hi everyone,
I'll be available tomorrow to answer any questions about this amazing car. I'll also create another quick cold start video and take a few undercarriage photos. Best of luck, and happy bidding! Fabie
