The Porsche 356 was the first car that the German automaker Porsche produced. Closely related to the Volkswagen Beetle, the 356 was the work of Ferdinand “Ferry” Porsche, son of Ferdinand Porsche, the man who created the Beetle. Just like the Beetle, the Porsche 356 carries its engine in the tail, an air-cooled flat-four that powers the rear wheels. However, while the Beetle is meant for mass transportation, the Porsche 356 is a lightweight, nimble and speedy sports car. The car was made in three forms: a fixed-head coupe, a canvas-roofed convertible, and a Speedster, which was a convertible, but with a lower profile made possible by a low-raked windshield. Over 76,000 were made, and many were raced, but few owners realized the historic value of the 356 – after all, there’s no such thing as a magical crystal ball, is there? Today, finding an original 356 is a difficult (and costly) endeavor, but thankfully, replicas exist. This 1979 Porsche 356 Speedster is a replica that’s been made by Intermeccanica and comes to you from Georgia with under 44,000 miles on the clock.
Exterior and Interior
Dressed in black, this 1979 Porsche 356 Speedster is a car that’s meant to impress. With its long, low stance, black soft top, chrome bumpers and steel wheels with shiny chrome hubcaps, this is a car that looks like nothing else. Its case is further helped by the fact that it’s extremely likely that much of the current generation won’t know what a 356 is; originals were made between 1948 and 1965. Meanwhile, at the rear there’s a set of quad exhaust tips which gives the car a great engine note as well as further uplifts its looks. The interior of this 1979 Porsche 356 Speedster is new, and includes black leather with red trim for the seats. You’ll find Porsche logos on the head rests and the steering wheel. Meanwhile, the dashboard hosts a treat for audiophiles, there’s not only a regular Panasonic head unit, but an Alpine equalizer too!
Engine
This 1979 Porsche 356 Speedster uses a 1.8-liter flat-four engine, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive. This is more than enough to grant you with exciting performance within the legal speed limits of the country.
Capturing the unmistakable charm of one of Germany's most iconic sports cars, this 1957 Porsche 356 Speedster Replica by JPS Motorsports blends timeless styling with thoughtfully selected performance upgrades. Showing just 816 miles, this professionally built Speedster replica is finished in elegant GT Silver Metallic over a Black leather interior and rides on classic Wide-Five steel wheels. Power comes from an upgraded 2,332cc air-cooled flat-four paired with a 4-speed manual transaxle, creating a lightweight, engaging driving experience that stays true to the spirit of the original while benefiting from modern enhancements.
As the predecessor of the 911, and the first production car by Porsche, there’s a lot of history behind the 356, and it’s no surprise that there are people around the world who continue to find ways to pay homage to what is an iconic piece of motoring history. Classic Motor Carriages’ 1987 Porsche 356 Speedster Replica is one of them. Built to maintain the original Porsche design on the road, this car retains the original vehicle’s appearance and features, with some tasteful enhancements. Still, it has a Porsche heart keeping it going, and with only over 11,100 miles on the clock, you know that this is a car that will keep on going.
The first ever production car from iconic German automaker Porsche was the 356. It was made between 1948 and 1965, and was the brainchild of Ferry Porsche, son of Ferdinand Porsche. Over 76,000 were made, and today, it’s estimated that approximately half of that contingent survives. However, getting your hands on an original 356 is quite tough, not to mention expensive. These cars regularly move for six-figure sums of money. That’s why replicas are a great way to get in on the action if you really want a 356, but aren’t too fussed about originality. Here, we have a 1956 Porsche 356A Convertible Replica that’s reportedly built in 1969. The work was completed by Hicks VW Services, because the Porsche 356 and Volkswagen Beetle have some commonalities.
The 2004 Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet sits at a particularly interesting point in 911 history, pairing the 996-generation Turbo’s brutally effective all-weather performance with open-top driving. Finished in Black over Black leather with a matching Black convertible soft top, this example carries the 3.6L twin-turbocharged flat-six, 5-speed Tiptronic S automatic, and all-wheel drive that made the 996 Turbo such a formidable road car in period. It is also equipped with desirable comfort and appearance features including heated front seats, Bose high-end audio, aluminum-painted instrument dials, a thicker steering wheel, and 18-inch Turbo Twist wheels. Showing approximately 98,750 miles, this Turbo Cabriolet combines serious performance credentials with the more usable, grand-touring side of the 911 formula.
Very few cars from the 1970s have the reputation of the first-generation Porsche 911 Turbo. This 1976 Porsche 911 Turbo (930) is an early U.S.-specification example showing approximately 103,898 miles and carrying VIN 9306800195, placing it as the 195th U.S.-market 930 in the 1976 VIN sequence. Porsche introduced the Turbo to North America for the 1976 model year, and this car belongs to the original 3.0-liter generation produced before the larger 3.3-liter Turbo arrived for 1978. Finished in White over a Black leather interior, this example combines the early single-turbo drivetrain with the signature wide rear fenders and factory whale-tail spoiler that made the 930 instantly recognizable. It also features a Rennsport-style front bumper, upgraded Porsche alloy wheels, factory-style air conditioning, a sunroof, and period Porsche equipment. According to the seller, this example has remained under the same ownership for the last 24 years, adding an appealing element of long-term provenance to one of Porsche’s most important early turbocharged road cars. Porsche states that 2,850 3.0-liter Turbos were produced during the model’s first three years, while specialist production records list 530 U.S.-specification examples for the 1976 model year.
Few sports cars have maintained the same combination of everyday usability, unmistakable design, and enthusiast appeal as the Porsche 911. This 2024 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet brings that formula into an open-top package, pairing its rear-wheel-drive layout and twin-turbocharged flat-six with a carefully selected configuration that stands apart visually. Finished in Chalk over a Bordeaux Red leather interior with Chalk stitching, this example has traveled approximately 11,047 miles. Desirable equipment includes the Sport Exhaust System, 20-/21-inch RS Spyder Design wheels, Power Steering Plus, the Premium Package, Surround View, ventilated front seats, and a BOSE surround sound system. The contrasting black convertible roof with double stripes in Grey and matching front trunk lid decal give this Carrera Cabriolet an especially distinctive presence.
This 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica by Backdraft Racing brings together the unmistakable open-top Cobra formula with a more modern performance-oriented foundation. According to the current owner, the car was built by the Backdraft Racing team in 2008 and has remained a one-owner vehicle, while the odometer currently shows approximately 7,856 miles. Its specification centers on a Ford Performance Boss 302ci small-block V8, a Tremec 5-speed manual transmission, an RT3 tubular steel space frame, independent suspension at all four corners, and four-wheel disc brakes. Finished in Indigo Blue with white racing stripes and equipped with side-exit exhausts, knockoff-style wheels, and a driver-side roll bar, this Backdraft offers the classic Cobra appearance with the mechanical hardware expected of a purpose-built performance roadster.
