The Porsche 911 Speedster ranks as one of the marque’s most desirable and recognisable models of the modern era. A combination of exclusivity, sleek styling, and the thrill of open-air motoring add infinite appeal to the distinguished Speedster. The 1989-only model made its bow to mark 35 years since the introduction of its 356 namesake.
Though a small number of narrow-body examples were built, most 911 Speedsters of this generation took “wide body” form with front wings, rear quarter panels, and chunky Fuchs alloy wheels borrowed from the top-of-the-range Turbo. However, the most notable feature of the aggressive, purposeful design was the frameless windscreen, which was both steeply raked and lower than that in the Carrera. The roof—such as it was—was only intended for use in lightly inclement weather.
The example offered here is recorded to have been completed by the Stuttgart factory on 1 June 1989, destined for delivery in its native Germany. The Porsche was built with desirable optional extras including the user-friendly G50 gearbox and heated seats with electronic adjustment. The 911 Speedster was configured in Black with a Black partial leather interior and Black drop-top roof. Offered for sale after almost nine years in The Curated Collection, this attractive and rare 1989 Porsche 911 Speedster is begging to be enjoyed by its next owner.
