Compared to the Carrera models, the 911 Turbo (Type 964) had a wider bodyshell with wheel housings that were significantly more flared. At the back, the rear wing, largely adopted from the G model Turbo 3.3, and two oval tailpipes emphasised its uniqueness. Exhaust gases only came through the left-hand pipe when the turbocharger's boost-pressure control valve was open.
In the model years 1991–92, the 911 Turbo was powered by a supercharged 3.3-litre engine that produced 320 PS. In model year 1993 it received a 3.6-litre engine producing 360 PS. This version was recognisable primarily due to its Red brake callipers.
With the exception of a very limited Cabriolet range, the Type-964 911 Turbo was only available as a Coupé.
