2011 Porsche 911 Speedster set to carry forward the legacy of Porsche 356 Speedster

The legacy of 1953 Porsche 356 Speedster is set to continue for many more years to come. Porsche has recreated the classic style and spirit of 356 Speedster in the all-new 2011 Porsche 911 Speedster which features contemporary re-interpretations of classic Porsche Speedster. Brian Harris Porsche, the leading Porsche dealer in Baton Rouge, Louisiana is eagerly waiting for the new Porsche 911 Speedster which will be officially unveiled at the 2010 Paris Motor Show in October 2010.

As the leading Baton Rouge Porsche dealer that specializes in the sales and service of new Porsche cars and used cars, Brian Harris Porsche feels that the rear-wheel drive 2011 Porsche 911 Speedster will strengthen the Porsche 911 line-up which has been bolstered by the addition of GT2 RS model earlier in the year and the Porsche Carrera GTS recently.

The 911 Speedster heralds the 25th anniversary of Porsche Exclusive, which helps customers customize each car to meet their needs or matches their personality and tastes. The striking profile of the new 911 Speedster is defined by the use of the Carrera 4 body, which is about two inches wider than the 911 Carrera S, to accommodate the wider rear track. The “double-bubble” cover for the manual convertible top and the windshield distinguish the new 2011 Porsche 911 Speedster from other 911 models. Other features exclusive to Speedster include the lower front spoiler, side sills, the vented rear fascia and the black alloy wheels.

The new Porsche 911 Speedster is powered by 3.8-litre flat six engine which has been tuned to deliver 408 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. For better performance, the Speedster will come standard with Porsche’s seven-speed PDK gearbox, the Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) and the Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB) that are optional on most 911 models.
