A virtual time capsule with only 263 original miles, this 1989 Porsche 911 Speedster presents in near showroom condition. The Speedster was reintroduced in 1989 as the spiritual successor to the iconic roadster that was originally produced during the Porsche 356 era. One of a mere 823 examples specifically earmarked for importation into the U.S., this is a rare tourist delivery with European plates. The Speedster was a one-year-only model for 1989 that paid homage to its ancestor with its competition-inspired silhouette defined by an open-air roadster body augmented with a low-slung and steeply raked windshield.
Further design inspiration on the 1989 Porsche 911 Speedster included flared front and rear fenders sourced from the 930 Turbo and the fitment of wide Fuchs alloy wheels mounted on low-profile, high-performance radial tires. Presented in the classic color of Guards Red with a black convertible top that nicely contrasts the Cashmere Beige leather interior with a deviating black on the dashboard and upper door sills, the car is a stunning example of originality and preservation. This 911 Speedster is factory equipped with a long list of desirable options including air conditioning, limited-slip differential, sport seats, short-shift gear lever and a Blaupunkt Charleston radio.
Powered by a fuel-injected 3.2L flat-6 engine mated to a G50 5-speed transmission, the drivetrain on this 911 Porsche is legendary for being both bulletproof and delivering amazing performance. The 911 Speedster also came equipped with a superb braking system consisting of cross-drilled and vented rotors with multi-piston calipers derived from Porsche’s championship-winning 917 race car. This beautiful machine comes with its factory-issued Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, original owner’s manual including the Speedster supplement.
The 1989 Porsche 911 Speedsters were the last of the models produced at the old Stuttgart factory, and this particular car presents a rare opportunity to own an incredibly low-mile example of Porsche history.
