Paris Preshow: New Porsche 911 Speedster
Celebrating its world premiere at the Paris Motor Show alongside the new 911 GTS models, will be a new member of Porsche's long-running sports car family, the 911 Speedster, which will be launched onto the market in December 2010.
The car might be new, but the Speedster name is old, in fact far older than the 911 itself as it was first used on the classic 356 model of 1953. Porsche revived the Speedster in 1989 with a limited run edition based on the 911 Carrera 3.2, followed in 1992/1993 by a newer model based on the Type 964 911 Carrera. According to Porsche, two examples of the Type 993 911 Speedster were also built to special order.
Designed and conceived by the Porsche Exclusive department in Stuttgart, the new 911 Convertible-based Speedster pays a styling homage to its predecessors featuring a 60mm lowered and more rakish windscreen as well as the characteristic 'double-bubble' hardcover behind the cabin for the manual soft top.
