Vehicle History
In the mid 1980’s, Porsche President Peter Schultz approved a modern update as a way to reignite some of the original 195-‘s Speedster excitement. It was a single year offering that was introduced for the 1989 model year, which not coincidentally was the 25th anniversary of the 911.
Only 2,104 of the new Speedster were built between January and September of 1989. and of that total only 823 were delivered to the united States. The Speedster, option number M503, was the last variant based on the outgoing K program chassis, that was to be replaced by the new Type 964. Porsche offered the new Speedster in both slant nosed and turbo body variants in Germany, but only the turbo look was sold in the U.S.
The 911 Speedster was distinctively shaped by Porsche’s styling department under the direction of Tony Lapine. It offered a cut down windshield reminiscent of the original, a minimal single layer fabric top and a twin humped fiberglass tonneau that covered the area where the occasional rear seats would normally reside. The front quarter windows were eliminated and the new side windows were manually operated. Like the original 356 Speedster, the new version was rarely seen with its top up.
