At the recommendation of Porsche's US importer, Max Hoffman, the 356 Speedster brought a lower-cost alternative to the rather expensive Cabriolet. With a distinctive lowered windshield and a fairly spartan interior, the Speedster was the perfect choice for driving enthusiasts and would-be racers. The car proved to be exactly what the company needed to increase sales, and the style quickly became legendary.
With such an enduring legacy, it was natural that various companies have created replicas of the model. Most utilize VW Flat-4 motors and other Beetle parts to keep costs down and maintain the car’s performance and handling. In fact, with modern engine upgrades, front disc brakes, and other safety features, these recreations are typically quicker (not to mention safer) than the originals. As such, these cars are hugely entertaining to drive and are the perfect choice for a weekend runabout.
The exceptional 1957 Porsche 356 Speedster Recreation featured here is finished in the desirable combination of gloss Black over a Dark Red leather interior with a Black convertible top. This impressive Speedster replica was built by a world-renowned coachbuilder and is virtually indistinguishable from an original. Equipped with an upgraded 1. 6L Flat-4, chrome wheels, and a leather interior, we are proud to offer this gorgeous Speedster to the most demanding collector, investor, or enthusiast who appreciates the iconic style of this 356 Speedster recreation.
