The earliest Porsche 356s are perhaps the purest definitions of Ferry Porsche’s vision of building a sports car with a low curb weight and ample power. American importer Max Hoffman had Ferry’s ear in the early 1950s when he suggested that an even more pure, and relatively affordable, 356 would be appealing to buyers on the sunny West Coast of the U.S.\n\n \n\n By early 1951, a prototype was built and shown to Hoffman. The importer responded positively and urged Porsche to put it into production
Porsche’s 356 Speedster has become an icon, and the number of undiscovered examples of these little jewels shrinks year by year.\n\n \n\n Porsche Speedsters were introduced in 1954 to fill U.S. distributor Max Hoffman’s demand for a less expensive model to compete with the popular British and Italian imports then dominating the growing American market. Porsche responded with a stripped two-seater with a base price of just under $3,000. The 356 Speedster was an immediate hit with American enthusi
The legendary 356 Speedster from the 1950s is one of the most exciting and sought-after Porsche models ever produced by the German automaker. In the mid-1980s, Porsche President Peter Schutz approved a modern update to re-ignite some of that excitement, and the result was the 911 Speedster. It was a single-year-only offering that was introduced for the 1989 model year, which not coincidentally was the 25th anniversary of the 911.\n\n \n\n This highly original, low-mileage Speedster was completed
Built to commemorate the 25th Anniversary of the Porsche Exclusive in-house design team, this 2011 Speedster is #256 of 356 produced worldwide, and one of 100 allotted to the U.S. market. It was produced in May 2011 and is one of 40 finished in Carrera White over a black leather and Carrera White interior. It’s powered by a water-cooled 3.8-liter flat-6 engine that produces 408hp, connected to a dual-clutch 7-speed PDK automatic transmission, and has 1,710 actual miles. This Speedster comes equi
This turnkey Speedster re-creation was hand-built and professionally assembled. It has only break-in miles since the build.

It was the drumbeats from Max Hoffman’s New York office that led to the creation of the Porsche Speedster, the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL and 190 SL, and this car, the BMW 507. While BMW would have eventually recognized the performance capabilities of its engineering, or how the American market’s thirst for fast, beautiful, open two-seaters had not yet been quenched, it was Hoffman who spurred on the effort, by demanding stylish machinery that would bridge the divide between low-priced MGs, the Porsch
Being a “friend of the family” has its distinct advantages, especially when that family surname is Porsche. Here is a very special, built-to-order example of the already rare 2011 911 Speedster, delivered with a number of distinct differences than the rest of the production run. It is serial no. 002 in the limited series of 356, of which only 100 came to the U.S.\n\n \n\n This latest version of Porsche’s iconic open, rear-engined two-seater was unveiled in late 2010 to celebrate the 25th anniver
Legendary car importer Max Hoffman watched as Americans snapped up Porsche’s 356 but he knew that the small, four-cylinder sporting car would resonate even better with sun-loving West Coast buyers if a droptop version was available. He approached Ferry Porsche with the idea and by late 1950, Sauter built a running prototype that would go on to be called the American Roadster. Hoffman liked the idea but Porsche himself thought it was too heavy to be a viable competitor in the burgeoning road-raci
Light, simple, and fast – that describes the brilliant Porsche 356 Speedster. It was created at the behest of American distributor Max Hoffman, who told Ferry Porsche that the still-fledgling automaker needed something to compete with the popular British and Italian imports of the day. And it had to be priced competitively. However, boasting high-quality engineering, materials, and workmanship, Porsche cars of the early 1950s were as costly as Cadillacs. Hoffman suggested that Porsche build a sp
