1989 Porsche 911 Speedster – RM Sotheby’s
In 1989, just prior to the release of the 964 generation of the 911, Porsche revived the legendary Speedster model, a name previously reserved for the purest and sportiest 356 variants. The 3.2-liter Speedster featured design elements that harkened back to the elegant and sleek design of its ancestor. The latter was reworked by chief designer Tony Lapine featuring numerous design cues, such as the “camel hump” cowlings behind the seats which concealed the manual top. In keeping with the original essence of the Speedster, Porsche described the top as being for “temporary” use only. When it was all said and done, a mere 2,065 Speedsters were built for 1989, only 823 of which were destined for the United States.
