Some manufacturers tell you that a model is limited to a specific amount of copies while they actually build way more copies. When Porsche says the build only 356 copies, they actually build only 356 copies. With the 997 Speedster Porsche refered to the past.
The number 356 is a reference to the first Porsche, the 356. This model was built in a Speedster version and later a second version followed based on the 911. The 997 generation revived this beautiful model and that's why Porsche decided to built only 356 copies of this model. This makes it a real rarity. This is the first copy that has been spotted in the colour Carrera White in the United States. The other spotted copies are painted in the colour Pure Blue, which is created especially for this 997 Speedster.
Those who own a 997 Speedster are smart when they don't sell this car yet because the value of this model will only increase in a few years. Porsche Exclusive is responsible for the development of this model. Another car which is built by this department is the Sport Classic. Together with the Sport Classic and the GT3 RS 4.0 this is a real collector's item. The car is characterized by the lascivious lines at the back and the small roof. The lines come together at the enormous bump at the back. It's a car for real fanatics. You do need to know something about the history of Porsche to really like the special design of this model.
