No, 965 - a stillborn project that, to cut development costs, ran an Audi V8 in the back. A lot of people incorrectly refer to the 964 Turbo as the '965' because some components have part number beginning with those three digits, but the 965 was a stand alone model intended to replace the 930 Turbo. I think it looks rather good.

Yes, that’s the sole surviving one which is in the Porsche Museum stash.

That's the boy. It was in the workshop that gets overlooked by the cafe.
