Vehicle Description
1959 PORSCHE 1600D CONVERTIBLE REPLICA BY INTERMECCANICA for sale.
Motorcar Classics is proud to present this outstanding 1959 Porsche
Convertible D Replica that was custom-built by the respected
craftsmen at Intermeccanica of Vancouver, Canada. This car was
built in 2004 and has covered only 7,227 miles. The Convertible was
Porsches successor to the iconic Speedster and featured roll-up
windows and a more substantial convertible top. The Intermeccanica
car is a faithful replica that is hard to distinguish from the
original card, and is arguably better better than the original in
both build quality, handling and performance. This car, in
particular, is even more authentic than most with an original,
period correct Porsche steering wheel and trim. But the original
convertible D would not have had AC, power windows, heated seats,
interval wipers, power brakes, sophisticated audio system or many
other amenities that were specified from the list of bespoke
amenities available from Intermeccanica. And with 146 HP on its
2100 CC engine built by CB Performance in California, this car
performs and handles better than any Convertible D we have had the
pleasure to drive. It is fully and freshly serviced and capable of
daily or cross-country driving. The car comes with a substantial
history file including a build sheet that I offer here for your
consideration. This is a most impressive automobile that will be
appreciated and admired by porsche enthusiasts. Intermeccanica
