Porsche Palm Springs is delighted to showcase, this Classic 1955 Porsche 356 A Speedster Dressed in an evocative Speedster (Sky) Blue and with just 60 miles to its name, this vehicle is a testament to the potent combination of high performance and sophistication that Porsche embodies.

The 356 A Speedster stands as a beacon of vintage design and iconic performance, its Speedster Blue exterior not just a color, but a celebration of Porsches rich automotive heritage. With its distinct silhouette and Sealed Beam Headlights, it offers an authentic glimpse into a golden era of motoring. A production date of March 1955 and model type 356120 underline its collectibility and timeless appeal. Its original equipment and trim options are consistent with the time of delivery, and a further visual inspection confirmed that all the markings are present, reaffirming its authenticity and historical accuracy.

Step inside and the Accella Bast/Cream Leatherette interior greets you, evoking a sense of nostalgia and classic craftsmanship. The Tan convertible top provides a refined contrast, while the period-correct Speedometer in miles keeps the original character intact, offering a driving experience that is as pure as it is memorable.

Engine and Performance: At the heart of this mechanical masterpiece is a 1.5-liter boxer 4-cylinder engine, producing 55 horsepower and 78 lb-ft of torque. Engine type 546/2 paired with a 4-Speed Manual Transmission (Type 519) provides a beautifully analog driving experience. Power is directed to the rear wheels, allowing drivers to enjoy the raw connection between road and machine that defined an era.
