2019 Porsche 911 Speedster

I’m curious what the legacy of the 911 generation Porsche 911 Speedster will be. Naturally, it is just a tribute in name only to the original 356 Speedsters, and towers over the tiny G-Body and 964 Speedsters. It does have a bit in common with the 997 Speedster, but make no mistake, this is a big, wide car. I give Porsche a ton of credit for building it, but it is much more of a 911 GT3 Touring convertible rather than what you would call a Speedster.

Now with a 992 Speedster rumored to be in the works, does this go down as an iconic model that will also sell for over MSRP? Well …

1989 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 Coupe

Sometimes I don’t know what to make of the 964 Porsche 911 Carrera 4. You can certainly appreciate Porsche moving to an all-wheel-drive setup, but that comes with a lot of compromises. The big ones being weight, complexity, and losing a bunch of power from all that driveline. Suddenly you have a peppy 911 turned into a heavier car that needs to divvy up its power to the front wheels. You may feel differently, but I think the juice isn’t worth the squeeze with that. The values seem to disagree with me.

1990 Porsche 911 Carrera 2 Convertible

Well, there is a first time for everything. In over 1,000 cars I’ve looked at, I’ve yet to actually check one out in person before giving my opinion on it. That changes today with this 1990 Porsche 911 Carrera 2. However, this car just wasn’t conveniently for sale down the street. Oh no. I peeled myself out of my chair, jumped on two planes, three trains, and walked a mile to the sleepy town of Brummen, the Netherlands to Gallery Aaldering. This is a place I’ve featured a handful of times before just because of their crazy collection, including a Wiesmann that was still there! Ordinary people go to the beach, I just visit car dealerships.

1996 Porsche 911 Turbo

Sometimes I think about those very fortunate people, and probably deservingly so, that every few years would swap out their Porsche 911 Turbo for the newest model year and be happy. Going from a 930 to a 964 Turbo was probably nice, and then going to the 993 Turbo must have felt like heaven. So why would you question your friendly salesperson who only likes you because you spend lots of money with them when the new 996 Turbo showed up on lots and was promised to be the best 911 Turbo yet? I can imagine the disappointment, but then again those same people are probably driving a 992 Turbo S this very day. Not exactly a tragic story.

Still, the 993 Turbo is somehow beating father time and getting more and more desirable every year. What once was a really fun 911 Turbo under $100,000 is now two or three times that, and the really prime examples, like the one we have today, have some mind-blowing asks. How does Iris Blue Metallic with 10,000 miles sound?

2003 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Coupe

As the 996 generation of the Porsche 911 continues its slow rise from the ashes, more and more seem to be coming out of the woodwork and getting shown some love. Suddenly it isn’t so crazy to drop $10,000 on maintenance and repairs if you know the values are holding strong and slowly creeping upwards. That certainly seems to be the case today with this 2003 911 Carrera 4S up for sale in Georgia. Let’s drive in for a quick look.
