Porsche 991 Speedster

The vehicle in detail

To commemorate its 70th anniversary in 2018, Porsche unveiled the latest version of its iconic 911 Speedster. Only 1,948 were built, celebrating the year Dr. Ferdinand Porsche built his first two-seat roadster. This special model is not only the finale of a long line of illustrious 991-generation designs, but also the most recent installment in the marque’s hallowed limited-production Speedster series.
Essentially a 911 GT3 with its roof cut off, the 992-generation 911 Speedster features extensive use of carbon fiber for the front trunk lid, front fenders, doors, engine cover, and interior trim. It also retains the iconic raked-and-shortened windshield which is the true calling card of the Speedster. Power is derived from a 4.0-liter flat six-cylinder engine rated at 502 horsepower and 346 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed manual transmission with rev-matching capability is standard, as are the formidable carbon-ceramic disc brakes with their enormous yellow calipers.
Offered today from an esteemed collection of special late-model Porsches, this 911 Speedster wears an outstanding and entirely unique specification highlighted by more than $67,000 of optional equipment and custom tailoring from Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur. Not a single surface, finish, or detail has escaped close consideration by the consignor in pursuit of the ideally configured Speedster. Taken together, this car’s manufacturer suggested retail price as-delivered to Porsche South Bay of Hawthorne, California was an astounding $345,160; an incredible 26% premium over the base price of this very limited production model.
