The gorgeous Velvet Red 1989 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet we featured last month remains up for sale. Pricing remains the same at $59,500 so all of that beauty won’t come cheaply, but for fans of the Cabriolet and classic 911 design this final year model of the 3.2 Carrera should make for a very promising addition to any stable.

Since we’re currently buried under a couple feet of snow here in the mid-Atlantic, what better time to feature a Cabriolet! Cruising top down, snow and road salt splashing through your hair, with just the faintest sensation left in your fingertips as you slide around another icy corner. It just doesn’t get any better. So, maybe that’s not the ideal scenario, but really attractive cars don’t take days off because it snowed somewhere else so our eyes must remain open. Here we have a Velvet Red 1989 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet, located in Florida, with a contrasting Linen and Burgundy leather interior and 33,594 miles on it. This is not a color combination we frequently see. While we come across a Linen interior from time to time it is almost always with a Blue or Grey exterior. The contrast here with Velvet Red is particularly striking and even though Linen probably would not be most buyers first choice it certainly serves to set a 911 like this one apart from the others.

This is a really nice looking example that appears to have been well cared for. If it is as mechanically sound as the exterior and interior condition then I imagine it will garner a good deal of attention. Added to that, given the asking prices we’ve seen for a wide variety of Carreras, the asking price here isn’t that unreasonable given the mileage and color of this Cabriolet. I had begun to think we were going to see another rise in the 3.2 Carrera market after a large number stratospheric asking prices popped up rather suddenly. But I haven’t actually seen much sell at those prices so at this point I’m not convinced there has been a ton of upwards movement. For those interested in speculating, however, a final year Carrera Cabriolet like this one could make for a fine investment.
