Black baby: 1957 Porsche 356A Speedster

ScreenShot001

This 356 Speedster is painted in its best color: black. According to us, no other color fits better those soft lines. This particular car is not a 100 points car, but somehow the Speedster emanates a greater charm when it’s not perfect.

This car has some improvements like disc brakes and a bigger engine, along with the “normal” seats which are for sure more confortable, although less particular, than Speedster ones. The steering wheel too is not correct, but who cares? The seller provides a lot of photos through which it’s possible to see the perfect floors and the overall good status of the car.

The engine is not original but, because of the greater power and torque, can push the car faster than a stock 75 h.p. unit. This, togheter with the disk brakes, makes this car more fun to drive. As we just wrote, it’s not a concours car but the asking price is appropriate to such “imperfections”, especially if you think in “Euro mode”. Find it for sale at €125,000 (today $163,000) here in Neuhofen, Austria.
