Equipment
5733/605hp, 6-speed, Yellow calipers, five-piece luggage set.
Condition
2300 miles. Finished in paint to sample Speedster Blue, a color unique to the 356 Pre-A Speedster. It's a beautiful color, but it wasn't done at the Porsche factory. It was done at Porsche North Houston.
Market commentary
Carrera GTs have come down a bit from their peak about a year ago, but very good examples are still in the mid-$1M range and that's exactly what this one sold for. Its paint, which is gorgeous but also a repaint, was basically a wash. Then again, maybe Carrera GTs are just softening, because the other one in this sale, a similarly clean silver car, barely cracked $1M.
