1989 Porsche 911 Speedster
Specifications
Description
The legacy of the Porsche 911 is a remarkable one and remains a benchmark in automotive history. Few sports cars can claim the distinction of maintaining a rear-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout, a singular silhouette, and continuous production over multiple decades. Introduced in September 1964, the 911 has preserved its fundamental shape and drivetrain philosophy while evolving technologically and dynamically. In addition to the traditional coupe, Porsche also expanded the model line to include open-top variants, further broadening its appeal.
This 1989 Porsche 911 Speedster originates from the Carrera 3.2 era, which spanned from 1984 through 1989 and represented the final and most refined chapter of the G-body 911 generation. The Speedster, however, occupies a far rarer position know within this lineage. Porsche produced the Speedster variant for a limited window between January and July of 1989, resulting in a total production of just 2,104 units worldwide. Characterized by its lowered windshield and distinctive body configuration, the Speedster stands apart as a unique interpretation of the 911 Cabriolet concept. With only under 20,000 miles recorded, this example presents as a notably low-mileage representation of the model. It is currently located in Buckhead, Georgia, an upscale Atlanta neighborhood, and offers an opportunity to acquire one of the most distinctive and collectible open-air variants of the classic air-cooled 911.
