Finally a new video... Like how u do yr reviews.. U combine being someone who actually loves and appreciates cars... But also understands the dynamics of value and investments in them.... Something that most reviewers lack... U r the kind of person who has a very interesting perspective on car purchases... Thank u
A great car which, unfortunately, many have ended up in flipper's hands. Thailand never got the Heritage Pack option, nor PTS option. Yet many European Speedster were bought by flippers. Very very unfortunate.
Ferrari owners brag how little miles they have. Porsche owners brag how many miles they have. But this car should ALWAYS be a garage queen. Drive it once a week. Will retain and go up in value. I want a garage with Turbo S, GT3 Touring, Singer DLS and either this or a Sharkworks Speedster.
I get a kick out of a commenters that saying that they have to manually put the top down what about a Lamborghini Aventador??The Aventador will depreciate this thing is going to double in price if not triple one day 20 years from now.this car is not meant to be driven with the top up it's meant to be driven with the top down who cares if it's a manual top??
The original 356 Speedsters were only available in 1955-1959. (Thank you Max). The 1948 reference in the door sill refers to the first year that Porsche the manufacturer produced a “Porsche” badged car. Only idiots pay over MSRP. Porsche AG does not appreciate dealership who gouge their customers. In the past they have cut allocations to dealers who play that game. Recall the days of the 959. Porsche wouldn’t sell one to anyone who did not have a Porsche buying history with the factory, to reduce speculators.
Only “idiots” pay over MSRP? If you didn’t get the original allocation then you don’t have a choice but to pay over the MSRP if you want a Speedster so I think that’s a pretty ridiculous comment.
That’s the way they should make all the 911’s Take out the backseats move the engine forward and have it looked just like that Yeah definitely they should make every 911 look like that and built like that They should make a 911 speedster
I've noticed so many Brits even the most knowledgeable about Porsche tend to pronounce it that way. Growing up in the US in the 80's it was the same. Yes, now everyone knows better. But honestly, the Brits still say it that way and they really don't care what you think...I like that. Especially when people that know almost nothing about Porsche except how to pronounce the name take the bait and comment.
I will reiterate again I just can't believe the comments about the roof lmao.That's going to make and break your decision on getting a special car like this?so Lamborghinis are not special because you have to manually put the roof panels in place?? That's the whole uniqueness of this car it's special in every way
Porsche has pretty much stopped making a hardtop convertible with the end of the 997 series of 911s. Back then they offered an optional hardtop, but since then with the 991 and 992 they don’t offer a true removable hardtop. (I was lucky to have ordered my PTS cabriolet S with a hardtop back then and have to say I truly appreciate having the hardtop option at times!).
Best looking Porsche in a long time but I don’t expect having to put the roof up manually on a car costing that much. I have a push button roof on my 2001 Merc SLK.
Pun intended warning. See 2:24 It is tricky with these center lock nuts. I just complained at the local tire dealer that against my profound (well known) desire of insisting to have the mounting of the center cap Porsche emblem towards the valve is detrimental and to make me be seen as a true street respect earning enthusiast among others, They Failed Miserably. I hurts me even more to see what has done to this car. My day is ruined.
@@ferrarirosso608 the Point is that the no automatic roof comes from the older Speedster, lightweight body and no extras for luxury trash. And as i see „Ferrari rosso“, why does Ferrari use the crap ass round blinkers on the side for decades?! No TeChNoLoGy?
PORCHE 911 IS A VERY GOD LOCKING CAR AND TOP KUALITET ENGINE PAINT TOLERNS DOORS GLEPS A CAR THAT WORKS IN ALL WATHERS VERY GOD BREAKS VERY GOD STEERINGS A CAR THAT ALMOST ALLWAYS WORKS
The price is comical in the face of the C8 Corvette coming to Britain. Dont get me wrong, its still a nice car. The C8 will simply annihilate this market guaranteed, and it has a better interior.
A Corvette anhilating a Porsche market. Porsche's continuous profits say otherwise. Lot of Porsche owners. At least on the speedster wealth level would not even look at a Corvette.
Its coming to GB and in spyder form as well. I dont see Porsche competing with the C8 series at all. It already beat the Carrera S. If you havent seen it then you dont know.
@@edwinmezua2539 most of the people commenting here I can tell I just not car people and don't know any better. You cannot compare a Corvette any other car even a Lamborghini huracan which might look better or sound better but will depreciate. This car is bound to be a classic.It will definitely be a collector as one of the last naturally aspirated Porsches with the six-speed manual .this is not the car that you take out to drive to get some milk in it's a sunny day car a special car to drive go to car show events etc I guess many of the people on this post do not know any better
Looks good but the performance is not there ........really for a 911..They are asking between $ 310000.00 to $ 400000.00 Canadian here in Vancouver...No Thanks plus you have to manually put the top down and up ....Way , way over priced
Ferrari owners brag how little miles they have. Porsche owners brag how many miles they have. But this car should ALWAYS be a garage queen. Drive it once a week. Will retain and go up in value. I want a garage with Turbo S, GT3 Touring, Singer DLS and either this or a Guntherworks Speedster.

A brilliant thought provoking review. Thanks.
You didn't mention as a competitor the 981 Spyder....there are few that do believe it! :-)
Long overdue review video. Luv your style of presentation and knowledge of the product and especially values. Keep up the good work
Love the 991 speedster but unfortunately as always with special editions they are in the wrong hands. Great car.
Porsche Network.. 911, not 991 🙏🏻
@@Puffpuffgive16 991 is the 911's generation, this Speedster is the 991.2 generation
As per usual another great video, awesome content from an awesome dealership
Truly a great car! What’s your take on the GT3 Touring and the Carrera T? Up or down or level in value?
Are you selling this Speedster?
Well done! Excellent comments on current and future markets. Beautiful Porsche. Thanks for the entertaining and informative video.
Awesome video! 1955 was the first year for the Speedster. I think 1948 was the first year of the 356...
A great car which, unfortunately, many have ended up in flipper's hands.
Thailand never got the Heritage Pack option, nor PTS option. Yet many European Speedster were bought by flippers. Very very unfortunate.
Por B. Agreed... shame they don’t go to legitimate owners that cherish them.
@1bigjohn11 Hulk rollie?
The best looking 911since last air cooled generation
Love that color magic
dude exactly
GT Silver Metallic?
Brilliant video. Great insights into its relevance and uniqueness!
If only they released it before 2019 without the particle filter!
Great video. Opening question,has porsche finished on a high or have the saved the best til last 🤔
Paul Kacirek I thought that myself! I like him, he sounds like a posh Ali G 😂
I do enjoy all your videos, I would like to see a preview on the 992 911 twin turbo s and Thank you again Roman
Stunning car - and sublime review as well. Thank you.
That was "the last" 991 made? I hope it's still sitting on the lot so I can come get it.
5:10 that car body didn't even move
The baby speedster, 718 spyder is a close 2nd !
Also now, the sypder RS with a PDK.
Amazing car 🙌🏼 great video also bro keep it up
Sharp,love the gray with a touch of black.
Would love to have one of these

It’s the dream... Hopefully one day 👀
Great review!
Thank you very much...
Stunning car. Even better with a manual gearbox. Sadly, not much different from a Carrera Convertible with a manul gearbox.
I get a kick out of a commenters that saying that they have to manually put the top down what about a Lamborghini Aventador??The Aventador will depreciate this thing is going to double in price if not triple one day 20 years from now.this car is not meant to be driven with the top up it's meant to be driven with the top down who cares if it's a manual top??
Absolutely gorgeous! The best one.
Wonderful review.
6MT? That is awesome.
Love the heritage design .....
The trouble with "a very special car" is then you are told you can't put miles on it because the value will fall off a cliff.
It should have a more rounded front screen just as the other speedsters..
Would you buy a Porsche 911R or Speedster? Both approximately same value and price at this point....
The original 356 Speedsters were only available in 1955-1959. (Thank you Max). The 1948 reference in the door sill refers to the first year that Porsche the manufacturer produced a “Porsche” badged car. Only idiots pay over MSRP.

If I had the money this is the car I would buy. Damn it is so sweet.
I got a 981 Spyder, it’s about 1/3 the price! With about 4/5 the performance. Draws attention like you wouldn’t believe.
Talk to you about the price after the winter of 2020. Big changes coming.
Your videos are good but i only need to watch three minutes just to give you a Thumbs Up because i LOVE THIS CAR. Love it.
That’s the way they should make all the 911’s
Take out the backseats move the engine forward and have it looked just like that
Yeah definitely they should make every 911 look like that and built like that
They should make a 911 speedster
One of the best porsche of the past 10 year and you have doubt. The new 911 is not even a 911
Very desirable yes. Should be priced close to a GT3.... Add to 911 annual production. Not limited edition
The gold Speedster badge option is pure cash!
Or pure trash.
Really should have had the concepts wheels
Gorgeous Porsche!
Gonna be worth millions in the future
Very sharp!
Such a beauty
Is it Porsh or Por-sche? Yeah, you’re saying it wrong.

Can that be bought please same model and colour
Epic road car
Will they ever make any model a hard top convertible? Or with a glass roof?
Porsche has pretty much stopped making a hardtop convertible with the end of the 997 series of 911s. Back then they offered an optional hardtop, but since then with the 991 and 992 they don’t offer a true removable hardtop. (I was lucky to have ordered my PTS cabriolet S with a hardtop back then and have to say I truly appreciate having the hardtop option at times!).
So what happens when you get a flat? Good luck with that one.
Stunning
Lots of Millionaires and Billionaires will pay whatever cost for the Speedster. The same buying frenzy for the 911R.
I need two . One for driving . One for investment .
I'd love one day to see a car tested in English roads without rain...
Best looking Porsche in a long time but I don’t expect having to put the roof up manually on a car costing that much. I have a push button roof on my 2001 Merc SLK.
Are you kidding me? Clown comment. Guess what, you have to shift your own gears with this car too.😂
unbelievable Car !!
What about Jaguar Project 7
How does a vehicle “sell like hot cakes”, when there’s such a tiny allotment? It’s a bit of a GUARANTEE, eh? ........
I dont think much of the soft top, 300 grand and you have to do all the work of opening and closing manually. Not good enough.
How sweet it is to have money
Beautiful machine
Manual rooftop? Imagine driving and suddenly heavy rain🤣🤣
Man, looks to rival a 918 Spyder or Carrera GT (not as pretty tho)
"Porrsch" 🤦♂️
Tells a lot about the "leading luxury & performance car dealerships".
Yeah I always hate that, these people make me so aggressive

Porsche really have a way of making conservative and desirably lovely cars 💯💘
When I'm well-off one day I'll buy myself a few..
What happens when they ban all combustion engines from the rd?
Porsche
...
There is no substitute
I'd rather not have the heritage edition I don't think it adds anything to it It actually detracts
Its Fail Concept becuz of Roof Top is Manually .
Did owners receive any gifts with the cars?
It needs GT3 DNA
It has GT3 DNA
Expensive car but still dont have automatic roof set up wtf
Mr. Invisual
And still no technology to reduce weight on automatic roof? Thats what i try to said 🤣🤣
But there is, they just dont find out.
@@ferrarirosso608 the Point is that the no automatic roof comes from the older Speedster, lightweight body and no extras for luxury trash. And as i see „Ferrari rosso“, why does Ferrari use the crap ass round blinkers on the side for decades?! No TeChNoLoGy?
Quarter of a million ,I'd buy a bus RV.
All that money and you have to manually raise and lower the roof?! Hard pass!
I don’t like the hump. The front of that car looks fantastic.
So the 718 is not a great car then. Nice car. Waffling sales guy
Is this car worth $274,500 dollars? NO. That’s should have been the entire video at 25 seconds.
Please folks, fix your in car audio. Very annoying.
My mint 1972 Porsche 911 says you need to learn how to pronounce Porsche!
PorschE.. It is NOT Porsch! Your pronunciation is the equivalent of pronouncing the last name Smith like Smi!
Buy Bitcoin !!! 😎👍
Audio poor.
Um no. It's the crappy speakers on your crappy computer. He sounds just fine.
mac daddy err no, it’s his crappy mike.
@@richardcatchlove9115 Sounds perfect on my computer. So yes, its your crappy speakers.

🥃😉u r 🥜best wishes from sunny Devon
200,000 grand car and a manual roof!! what a joke from Porsche. I rather buy a Peugeot convertible! Atleast that has an automatic roof.
All that money spent and you have to do the roof manually? You kidding me? NOT WORTH IT!
carbon fibre is modern looking? reminds me of shit from 20 years ago.
The price is comical in the face of the C8 Corvette coming to Britain. Dont get me wrong, its still a nice car. The C8 will simply annihilate this market guaranteed, and it has a better interior.

Malibu for a loaner? No thanks.
What super rich bullshit!
NOPE! This car is ugly with the roof up, and for this amount of money it should have been powered. Also,the gold is gaudy and outdated.

Money Maker the Ferrari way overpriced ugly and no roof,
go figure
Were you able to actually buy one, you would never lose a cent, making it a very cheap car.
Short answer: Yes
Long answer: Yes
Ferrari owners brag how little miles they have. Porsche owners brag how many miles they have. But this car should ALWAYS be a garage queen. Drive it once a week. Will retain and go up in value.
I want a garage with Turbo S, GT3 Touring, Singer DLS and either this or a Guntherworks Speedster.
