Porsche’s original 356 Speedster directly targeted enthusiasts who valued performance over creature comforts. The same was true with the later Speedsters of 1989 and 1994. These Speedsters featured an emergency only soft-top, a lower windshield and lacked rear seats.

Unlike the 1989 Speedster, the 1994 Speedster, based on the 964, was initially offered without wide-body rear fenders, giving it a more understated and dignified look. This new Speedster bridged the gap between the 964 Carrera 2 Cabriolet and the track ready 964 RS. Power windows, air conditioning, and a stereo were available as options, but almost none of the other creature comforts of the standard Cabriolet were found on the Speedster. It successfully brought the spirit of the original 356 Speedster to the modern era and it is remembered as being one of the best 911s in decades. Despite its initial goal to build 3,000 964 Speedsters, Porsche only built 936 over its two year production run.

This 964 Speedster has desirable black leather Culbsport bucket seats with gray and white inserts look fantastic with the all-white exterior and black interior. Unusually, the wheels of this example are painted body color, giving it an uncluttered look. Many Speedsters were driven hard or raced by their owners so finding an example as well preserved as this, also with a striking color combination, is a rare opportunity for any collector or Porsche enthusiast.
