In 1956, eight years after 356 production commenced, Porsche announced a series of updates to the car – enough to warrant the designation, “356 A”. Styling was largely the same as most of the changes were mechanical, though a new curved windshield made for a significantly more modern appearance. New alloy engines and updated suspension/drivetrain mounting changes brought additional performance and improved handling. Inside, a new dashboard and a lower floor increased safety and comfort.
For 1957, a second series of upgrades, dubbed the ‘T2’ body, further set the 356 A apart from earlier models. Through-bumper exhaust, Zenith carburetors, and updated crankshafts were the most notable adjustments. Today, early 356s are often just as valuable, if not more so, than their later counterparts for their relative rarity and “more pure” styling, making them ideal choices for any investor or enthusiast’s collection.
The magnificent 1959 Porsche 356 A 1600 Super Coupe featured here comes from Adam Levine's world-class collection and is finished in stunning factory Black over a Black leather interior. This incredible Porsche 356 A has been comprehensively restored by marque experts to the highest standards and is among one of the finest restored examples we've seen in over thirty years. In addition to its phenomenal restoration, this 356 A is particularly special due to extremely desirable factory options including original Rudge wheels, 'VDM' wood steering wheel, side vent windows, and all-black color scheme - all confirmed by its Porsche Certificate of Authenticity. Because of this, I personally believe the investment potential of this sensational 356 A Super Coupe will grow beyond your imagination! This is an incredible opportunity to acquire one of the very best Porsche 356s in the world at an investment price!
