Saved yellow 964 Porsche 911 from floodwatersThe owner of what appears to be a rare yellow 964 Porsche 911 saved his car from the floodwaters encroaching his or her property near Louisville, Kentucky with the help of what looks like an inflatable cushion tethered to the house.Update!

April’s severe weather wasn’t limited to just tornadoes as flooding occurred across large swaths of the country, including in Kentucky along the Ohio River. Given the height of the property above the river, this landowner seems to recognize the threat of flooding. But what of the car?

Saved yellow 964 Porsche 911 from floodwatersWith a garage on the floor level it looks like this owner went the extra step to make certain his/her pride and joy wasn’t destroyed using an inflatable raft tied to the corner of the house (presumably so the 911 doesn’t float in the wrong hands).

Exactly what 964 is worth this kind of treatment? Hard to tell from this one aerial shot, but the widebody kit and overall look indicates it could be one of the Porsche America Roadsters, of which only 250 were made. Even if it wasn’t, only 702 C2 turbo-look roadsters were ever built.
