2011 Speedster along side a 1954 356 Speedster

Thank you for the great pictures. When you see them side-by-side like that, it is amazing how much more beautiful, pure, and elegant the 1954 car is. It is too bad that no manufacturer seems to be capable of that simplicity nowadays.

Like the 'optional' white paint over the standard Speedster blue! Hey, is that a Sport Classic in the background?!?! Didn't think they were selling here in the U.S.? Maybe it's just an 'S' or 'GTS' with all the similar options?

ha ha ha - I owned a '55 1600 Super coupe (in Bavaria, on those wonderful back roads) - it was basically a quick, better sprung VW with an aerodynamic body - beautiful, pure, elegant ? I don't think so.

I had the same thought!

Why did I buy a 911? This picture says it all for me. After almost 60 years, the car still captures the same form and function as in 1954. What other car does that? No question, I want both! Great pic.
