1989 Porsche 911 Speedster for sale!

Black Over Black Interior, 71,821 Miles Shown, Original Blaupunkt Dearborn Head Unit, Optioned With Cruise Control and Short Shift Lever.

This 1989 Speedster was built in the later portion of Speedster production, leaving the factory on June 14, 1989. Finished in Black over a Black Partial Leather interior, this Speedster is a lifelong California car that has been enjoyed and shows 71,821 miles on the odometer. In contrast to most Speedsters which are equipped with full black Fuchs wheels, this example is fitted with Fuchs that have polished centers and lips, with black accents around the inside of the wheel cutouts. When paired with a set of Toyo Proxes with some serious sidewall, this Speedster has an outstanding stance. Another major change from the standard 911 cabriolet to the Speedster is the addition of a hard tonneau cover that sits behind the front seats, covering the convertible top. Along with the cut-down windshield, this design element makes the Speedster look especially low and gives it a bit of a custom car appearance.

Il veicolo in dettaglio

The interior of the Speedster is quite simple, consisting of a pair of black leather bucket seats which are both power-adjustable. Optioned with a short shift lever for more direct, sporty throws, as well as a Blaupunkt Dearborn head unit, the rest of the interior is basic and even features manual windows. That being said, the inside of the car is in very good overall condition and only minor bolster wear is showing on the driver’s seat.

Mechanically, the Speedster is essentially identical to a contemporary 911 Carrera. Powered by a 3.2 liter flat-6, the Speedster produces 217 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque and this engine is known for being one of the most reliable to ever sit in the back of a 911. This is then paired with a 5-speed manual transaxle that sends power to the rear wheels. Although it isn’t all that powerful by today’s standards, it was still quick enough for a sub-6 second 0-60 mph run and would top out at over 150 mph, while making a great noise and being truly exciting to rev out.

In 1989, Porsche built 2,056 Speedsters for the world, with just 823 making their way stateside. These were one of the first cars that people stashed away from new, expecting them to become collectible, which makes this Speedster almost more unique given that someone has actually enjoyed it over the years. If you have always loved the Speedster but had a hard time justifying the purchase of a museum piece, this is the perfect car to buy and start putting miles on.

Without a doubt, one of Porsche’s most iconic classic cars is the 356 Speedster that they built between 1954 and 1958. Conceptualized by American importer Max Hoffman, the Speedster was a heavily de-contented 356 Cabriolet that was a less expensive option, geared towards the US market. Featuring a lower, raked-back windshield, bucket seats and a spartan interior, the 356 Speedster quickly became the go-to choice for professional and amateur racers alike thanks to its low weight and removable windshield. In 1989, Porsche was beginning to phase out the “G-Body” Carrera, in preparation for the incoming 964 generation 911. To commemorate the occasion, they decided to bring the Speedster name back for the first time in more than 30 years, with the introduction of the 911 Speedster. Featuring a similarly cut-down windshield, less insulated convertible top, and removal of the rear seats, the 911 Speedster looked tremendously special and has become a classic Porsche icon in its own right nearly 35 years on from its debut.
