Overview of 2008 Porsche 356 Replica For Sale by Owner

Porsche’s first-ever production model, the 356 was a lightweight and nippy sports car that debuted in 1948. Coming in at just under 158 inches long and a smidge over 65 inches wide, it was a truly compact thing that could easily be threaded along narrow roads. It sported an air-cooled flat-four engine in the tail, and wasn’t that much of a departure from the Volkwagen Beetle. No surprise, since Ferdinand Porsche had a hand in the Beetle’s development too. Over 76,000 original 356s were made, but far fewer survive today. That means if you want an original car in reasonable condition, you’ve got to be prepared to pay top-dollar for it. Thankfully, the replica market has you covered, with gems such as this 1957 Porsche 356 Speedster 1600 Super Replica. Built by Vintage Speedsters and assembled in 2008, this car is up for sale with a mere 9,300 miles on the odometer. It originally started it's life as a 1974 Volkswagen. So, why not buy it and make it your weekend toy? It’s a fine thing that will show you the beauty of driving a classic automobile, without the typical headaches that typically come with classic car ownership.

Exterior and Interior

This 1957 Porsche 356 A 1600 Super Speedster Replica presents itself in a maroon suit, and is an excellent reproduction of the original’s iconic design. You’ll no doubt notice the Beetle similarities, such as in the headlamps, bumpers, and some of the curves. But, you’ll also appreciate the sleek silhouette that this car cuts, regardless of whether its tan convertible top is deployed or lowered. Whitewall tires, which are reportedly new, only add to its allure. The tan interior of this 1957 Porsche 356 1600 Super Speedster Replica is strictly for two, with well-bolstered seats, a Nardi Torino wood-rimmed steering wheel, and a wood-knobbed gear shifter taking center stage for the driver. Then, we find the original-style gauge cluster with its three-dial layout, offering a central tachometer, flanked by the speedometer and auxiliary gauges. This layout continues into Porsche’s entry-level offerings such as the 718 Boxster and 718 Cayman. Behind the two seats is a small area for some luggage, to augment the car’s modestly-sized front trunk.

Engine

The 1,915cc air-cooled, flat-four cylinder engine that powers this 1957 Porsche 356 1600 Super Speedster Replica is an eager thing that you’ll enjoy listening to on every drive. It sends power to the rear wheels through a 4-speed manual transmission. Moreover, a recent engine tune-up has been reported, ensuring that this car should perform at its peak.

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.

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.
