OVERVIEW

Completing the soft-top 911 line-up was the Speedster, which revived a charismatic model from Porsche's past when it arrived in 1989, the name previously having been applied to that most stylish of the many Type 356 variants. The idea of a new Speedster had first crystallised in 1983 with the development of an ultimately stillborn prototype. Porsche's president, the German-American Peter Schutz, revived the project in 1986, knowing that such a model would have great appeal in the United States market. A prototype based in the 911SC was shown at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1987, but by the time the production Speedster arrived, the 911SC had been superseded by the Carrera '3.2'.

Based on the 911 Turbo Cabriolet, though normally aspirated, the 3.2-litre Speedster was launched immediately prior to the introduction of the new Type 964 bodyshell and thus was the last 911 model to feature the old-style body based on the brilliant original design of 1963. The latter was reworked by chief stylist Tony Lapine, incorporating numerous references to the original 356 Speedster as well as a pair of controversial 'camel hump' cowlings behind the seats that concealed the stowed-away manual hood, a simplified affair described by the factory as for 'temporary' use. From 1984 Porsche had offered the 'Turbo-Look' body style - flared wheelarches, large rear wing and deeper front spoiler - on its normally aspirated models including the Speedster, the vast majority of which were ordered with this option. One of the rarest of the 911 family, the Speedster was built during 1989 only, a mere 2,065 cars being completed of which only 161 had the narrow (non-'Turbo-Look') body.

DETAILS ON THIS EXAMPLE

Three options are present on this stunning example.

Delivered in July 1989 our car here has had three owners from new. We acquired the car in 2006 and have continued the service and record keeping duties going for the car while exercising it regularly.

The paint is all original on all surfaces. Glass is all original. The engine bay is quite tidy, as is the front trunk area when you remove the carpet – it looks factory fresh.

With nearly 48K miles showing on the clock, this Speedster has no current mechanical needs and drives wonderfully.

This magnificent low mileage example comes with absolutely every original accessories including the owner’s manuals, tools, service book, maintenance records and is as new.

Currently the car has a Becker Traffic Pro radio installed. For sure we do have the original Blaupunkt SQR46 radio that belongs to the car.

This Speedster is priced at 270.000€ / OBO.

The car is still located in Germany. Please get in contact via PM or directly to dino.goetz@me.com
