The 911 Speedster is the latest product retailed by Porsche’s Exclusive department
Out of homage to the first 1954 Speedster just 356 are going to be built
It’s a great car but that’s more because it’s a 911 than a Speedster
Speedster takes the wide body of the C4 S Cabriolet
Unlike the original, the new Speedster is waterproof
Your attention is drawn first to the signature double bubble hood cover and the shortened windscreen
402bhp upgraded powertrain from the Sport Classic
Electrics lift the hood cover, which you then manually hinge back to provide access to the hood
The hood mechanism is more complex than complicated
Porsche says one person suitably trained can operate the roof in under two minutes
Wide Fuchs-style wheels are Sport Classic car carry overs
The interior is so covered in leather even the air vents and coat hooks are swaddled in the stuff
