                                              1989 PORSCHE SPEEDSTER

                  - - -  POWER IS DELIVERED BY

                 WAY OF A 3.2-LITER AIR-COOLED
                                              The Porsche 911 Carrera Speedster debuted in 1989 as a one-year special for
                 HORIZONTALLY OPPOSED FLAT-6   the 911s 25th year anniversary and had direct design attributes from the 356
              ENGINE THAT PUTS OUT 231HP AND   Speedster. It had a frameless, raked windshield that was also 3.1 inches shorter
                                              than a Carrera’s.
                   195 FT/LBS OF TORQUE  - - -
                                              At the rear, the dual hump tonneau cover replaced the back seats. To the
                                              driver’s right and left were roll-up windows and a manual rollaway roof. The
                                              911 Speedster saved some weight over the cabriolet, coming in about 150
                                              pounds lighter thanks to the removal of the roof frame and the non-inclusion
                                              of electric windows and other interior fittings. Power is delivered by way of a
                                              3.2-liter air-cooled horizontally opposed flat-6 engine that puts out 231hp and
                                              195 ft/lbs of torque.

                                              Power is fed through a 5-speed manual Getrag G50 transaxle, and there are
                                              power-assisted, ventilated and cross-drilled disc brakes with alloy calipers at
                                              all four corners. Turbo-look Speedsters were fitted with 7J and 9J 16-inch-
                                              diameter Fuchs forged alloy wheels and larger tires.
                                              This example shows well with 22,755 actual miles. Options include Blaupunkt

                                              air conditioning.
