356A Speedster Sets World Record at Auction
During RM's classic car auction at the Biltmore resort hotel in Phoenix, AZ, Classic Showcase's 1958 Porsche 356A Speedster set a world record. It sold for $220,000, the highest auction price ever for this model. Originally a Southern California car, this matching-numbers Speedster found its way to Iowa and, for the last forty years, has remained under the same ownership. As presented, it remains very original and in remarkable overall condition with approximately 74,000 original miles. By all accounts, it has been garage-kept and well maintained throughout its life and very recently received a professional, comprehensive service and detailing at Classic Showcase in Oceanside, California.
