Designed at the behest of US Porsche Importer, Max Hoffman, the 356 Speedster was released as a lower-cost, more track-oriented variant of the 356. With a choice of several engines with outputs ranging from 60hp to 100hp, a shorter windscreen, removable windows, and other distinctive elements, Speedsters have become one of the most iconic shapes in Porsche's history. As such, values for original Speedsters are some of the highest of any Porsche of the period.

Unsurprisingly, their legendary status and relatively simple shape have brought about a significant number of replicas throughout the years. Some of the absolute best are made by Beck, who utilize a special tube frame, modern suspension/ brake components, and performance-tuned VW Flat-4 motors to accurately recreate the handling so beloved of the originals, but offer better performance. These cars, especially those with larger displacement motors, are endlessly enjoyable to drive, providing a unique feel that much larger vehicles can't reproduce.

This incredible recreation of a 1957 Porsche 356 Speedster was built by world-renowned coachbuilder Beck and finished in special order Aviator Grey (from Audi's palette) over a Black interior with a matching folding convertible top. Featuring a heater, removable side curtains, headlamp grilles, a Nardi steering wheel, and its inherent performance potential, driving this Speedster is a joy. This Beck Speedster has only been driven 6, 703 miles from new and was recently serviced by specialists, ensuring it is ready for its next caretaker. We proudly offer this remarkable motorcar to any collector, investor, or enthusiast who wants to drive and enjoy the look and feel of an iconic Porsche Speedster at a fraction of what an original example would cost!
