Ever since it was first applied in 1954, the Speedster name has defined some of the raciest Porsche road-car models to emerge from Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen. The most recent 991.2-based Speedster was released for 2019 along a strictly limited production run numbering 1,948 cars, corresponding to the year Porsche production and the company’s rich legend began. Offered from the Michael Fux collection, this 991.2-based 2019 Porsche 911 Speedster shares its powertrain with the road-and-track capable Porsche 911 GT3, comprising a 4.0L/502 HP flat-6 engine and mandatory 6-speed GT Sports manual transmission. Finished in Guards Red over black leather with red stitching and a black convertible top, it comes to market with just 43 miles. Stunning technical specifications include a mechanical rear differential lock with asymmetric locking, torque vectoring, Porsche Stability Management, Porsche Active Suspension Management variable damping system, stainless steel sports exhaust and carbon ceramic brakes with black calipers. Equipped far beyond the wildest dreams of original Speedster buyers, this 997.2-generation car features a Front Axle Lift System, carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic “double bubble” streamliners and convertible top compartment lid, and a lightweight carbon fiber hood. The luxurious cockpit includes heated seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, Porsche Communication Management with online navigation, Bose Surround Sound audio, Connect Plus module including Apple CarPlay, leather sun visors and steering column casing, and the Light Design Package. The Sport Chrono Package brings five different driver-selectable driving modes including normal, Sport Plus, Individual and Wet mode. Other highlights include a rearview camera, power locks and windows, heated power mirrors, and desirable detail touches like a Red 12 o’clock marker on the steering wheel, Porsche’s legendary crest in the seat headrests and a Porsche 70- year badge, plus floor mats with deviated carpet, leather edging and stitching, and carbon fiber outside mirror upper housings. Black forged Speedster alloy wheels with outer lips in Guards Red mount Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires. A window sticker documents original data and options for this stunning performer, which is appropriately completed by a 10,000-RPM tachometer and 225 MPH speedometer.
