The 911 Speedster, launched in 1989, was initially intended to be built on the upcoming 964-generation chassis, but ended up using the pre-existing 3.2 Carrera platform. Echoing the spirit of its acclaimed predecessor, the new model had a steeply sloped and lower windshield, an aerodynamic hump at the rear that covered a storage area where the rear seat used to be, and a sleek fabric roof that completely changed the car’s profile. At the rear is the same air-cooled 3.2-liter six-cylinder engine that was also used in the Carrera, mated to a five-speed Getrag G50 gearbox. A healthy 217 horsepower was transferred to the rear wheels, which – thanks to the model’s crash diet – ensured that the Speedster was as attractive to drive as it was to look at. Porsche produced only 2,104 units of this Speedster, making it a sought-after car among collectors and car enthusiasts.
We proudly present our 1989 black Porsche 911 Speedster with gray leather interior. It was first delivered in Germany on Sept. 15, 1990.
