911 Speedster (2011)
In 2011, Porsche introduced a new 911 Speedster variant having a production run of 356 units only, the production number coming from the iconic car of the 1950s.
It was the third production 911 Speedster made, preceded by the 930 and 964 generations (the 993 generation didn’t have a regular production speedster variant and the 996 generation didn’t have a speedster variant at all). The Speedster was powered by the same engine as the Carrera GTS, and generated a maximum power output of 408 PS (300 kW; 402 bhp).
It can accelerate from 0–97 km/h (0–60 mph) in 4.2 seconds to a top speed of around 306 km/h (190 mph).
Only two colours were offered, Pure Blue (which was developed specifically for the Speedster) and Carrara White. (Paint To Sample versions were produced in very limited numbers).
The Speedster featured a windscreen 70 mm (2.8 in) shorter than the standard 997 cabriolet while maintaining the same rake angle along with a familiar hump on the rear section to store the soft top.
