Description

1972 Porsche 356A 1600 Speedster replica

The Porsche 356 is a luxury sports car produced by German company Dr. Ing. h. c. F. Porsche GmbH (1950-1965). It was Porsche’s first production automobile. The 356 was a lightweight and nimble-handling rear-engine rear-wheel-drive 2-door sports car available in hardtop coupe and open configurations. Engineering innovations continued during the years of manufacture, contributing to its motorsports success and popularity. The 356A identified by distinctive twin round taillights, were only offered in 1956 through early 1957.

MotoeXotica is pleased to announce our latest addition, this 1972 Porsche 356A speedster replica, a tribute to one of the most renowned coach builders in Germany, Reutter Carosserie-Werke, and in 1949 Porsche started using their bodies for their sports cars. When operations moved to Stuttgart, it became the main supplier of Porsche bodies for nearly two decades. It didn’t take discerning auto enthusiasts very long to realize that these Reutter-bodied Porsches were built to a higher standard than could be found on vehicles from most competing nameplates. Reutter’s exemplary workmanship was evident in the quality of components and in overall fit-and-finish.
