review The large community of Porsche enthusiasts has any number of
sub-groups. Perhaps the two most significant camps distinguish
between owners who prefer their 911s in pure stock-condition versus
those who embrace modified cars. Those modifications can range from
minor variations from stock to the wildest of interpretations of
what a 911 can be. A Strosek 911 Speedster resides firmly in the
second camp, arguably a bit out near the edge. As Road & Track put
it, with a Strosek example, you can expect to garner all sorts of
interest, subtle criticism, and outright delight at your next PCA
get-together. Fashion editor, Diane Vreeland, is quoted as having
once advised, Oh please, just don't be boring. The elite group of
owners of Strosek Porsches has fully embraced that ethic. The
elfersport group explained the Strosek origins and appeal: The
internationally renowned industrial designer Vittorio Strosek -
under whose leadership Strosek had probably the broadest range of
aerodynamic components for Porsche sports cars between 1982 and
2004 - dedicated his work primarily to sharpening the vehicle
design. He usually left motor optimization or tuning in the
traditional sense to other providers. The organic design and the
reduction in the frontal area associated with the Mega Speedster
model not only show the signature of his teacher Luigi Colani, but
also underline the pleasing Porsche curves so skillfully that the
remarkable increase in vehicle width is hardly noticeable. Rather,
the overall composition of the car looks much more powerful than
the original product, but without being intrusive. Offered here is
a stunning Strosek Porsche Speedster in custom Maritime blue. One
of only 427 1994 (964-series) Speedsters imported to the U.S.
market out of a total of 935 made by Porsche worldwide, the car was
purchased new by San Francisco Giants slugger, Barry Bonds. It has
also been featured in 911 Porsche Magazine, as well as in a Dream
Cars 2000 calendar. The Speedster has traveled just 34,800 miles
since new, or under 1,500 miles per-year. Clearly, it has been
cared for responsibly and carefully stored when not in use. Its
Carfax report does show unspecified damage in California in 2004,
but no sign of any such damage remains. Among the car's features
are: The Strosek steel body kit; Andial-built 3.8 liter
horizontal-6 engine; custom upholstered Recaro sport seats; air
conditioning; cruise control; power windows; front fog lights;
4-wheel ABS disc brakes; dual front air bags; alloy wheels; Pioneer
audio head unit; Porsche Big red brakes; custom-fabricated
twin-hoop roll bar; and color-matched instrument faces. The
exterior Maritime blue paint retains excellent gloss overall with
no obvious flaws. In particular, the front of the car with its
re-worked headlights, the wide-body fender flares, and the revised
rear deck and engine cover all exhibit the Storsek flair and
factory-quality workmanship without seeming too over-the-top.
Body-panel fit is well within factory tolerances. The
Speedster-specific, black trimmed windshield shows no flaws. Behind
its 5-spoke alloy wheels finished in gloss black with Porsche crest
center caps and high-performance tires, Porsche-branded red brake
calipers and drilled brake
