About this car
The 1989 Porsche 911 Speedster stands out for its Silver Metallic finish over Silk Gray leather, a combination that highlights the model's low windshield, shortened side windows, and fiberglass twin-hump cover. This example carries 68,000 miles and is one of 823 Speedsters delivered to the United States that year. It is powered by the 3.2-liter air-cooled flat-six paired with the G50 five-speed manual transaxle.
The Speedster body uses wide rear fenders shared with the contemporary Turbo and rides on 16-inch Fuchs forged alloy wheels with anti-theft devices. Exterior equipment includes halogen headlights with washers, integrated fog lights, tinted glass with graduated windshield tint, dual electrically adjustable and heated mirrors, and a single exhaust outlet. A new genuine Porsche soft top was recently fitted.
Inside, the two-seat cabin features power-adjustable leather seats in Silk Gray with matching dashboard, door panels, and deep-cut carpeting. Standard items comprise air conditioning, automatic speed control, power windows, an electric door locking system, a leather-covered steering wheel, a Blaupunkt Reno AM/FM/cassette radio with four speakers, a quartz analog clock, and a transistorized tachometer with trip odometer.

- Combustion
The Porsche 911 Carrera G-Series, produced between 1974 and 1989, represents a significant evolution of the iconic 911 lineup. Over its 15-year production run, approximately 196,000 units were manufactured across various trims, including the Carrera, making it one of the longest-running generations of the 911. The G-Series introduced key updates like impact bumpers to meet U.S. safety regulations and galvanized steel bodies for improved corrosion resistance, enhancing longevity—a critical factor for collectors.
Engine options varied, with the Carrera models typically featuring air-cooled flat-six engines ranging from 2.7 to 3.2 liters, producing between 175 and 231 horsepower depending on the year and market. Performance highlights include the 1984-1989 Carrera 3.2, which achieved 0-60 mph in around 5.6 seconds. Notable for collectors are rare variants like the 911 Turbo (930) and special editions such as the 1988 Commemorative Edition, built to celebrate 250,000 911s produced. Values have risen steadily, with well-maintained examples often fetching over $50,000, and rare models exceeding $100,000 at auctions. The G-Series’ blend of classic design, durability, and historical importance as a transitional model makes it highly sought after in the exotic car market.
