When US-based Porsche importer Max Hoffman suggested a lightweight, low-cost variant of the Speedster, it is easy to imagine Porsche executives were skeptical. However, their decision to appease his request quickly bore fruit - not only did it invigorate sales of its more expensive siblings, the car quickly became an icon of fifties style and still sets the tone for special body styles of Porsche models to this day. With a focus on simplicity, Speedsters were crafted with removable low-cut windshields, fully integrated dashboards, and side-curtain windows - making them easy to differentiate from the standard Cabriolets.
Naturally, such an iconic automobile has spurred numerous companies to create replicas. Many of these are essentially impossible for all but the most dedicated Porsche enthusiasts to tell from an original and often offer superior performance thanks to even less weight and increased power. Combined with the fact replicas cost only a fraction of that of an original (genuine Speedsters routinely sell for well over $300,000), these represent the best way for enthusiasts to enjoy Speedster ownership.
The superb 1957 Porsche 356 Speedster Recreation featured here is finished in attractive Signal Red over Tan leather with a Black folding convertible top. This exquisite Speedster replica was built by a renowned coachbuilder, Classic Motor Carriages, to a high standard and is extremely difficult to tell from an original. This particular car was fitted with an upgraded 1.9: Flat-4 with dual Weber carburetors, disc brakes, ventilated chrome wheels, and a leather interior, ensuring that this turn-key Speedster replica drives as incredible as it looks. We are proud to offer this incredible 356 Speedster recreation to the most particular collector, investor, or enthusiast who aspires to own one of the very best at a cost significantly lower than that of an original!
