Highlights
A predecessor to the 356 Speedster, the original America Roadster was a special lightweight Glaser-bodied 356 Roadster built in very limited numbers for the U.S. distributor Max Hoffman. Hollow doors, a light alloy body, the lack of side windows, and a removable windshield all contributed to significant weight savings. Only 16 of these cars were produced.
Like the 356 America Roadster it was named after, the Type 964 America Roadster was a limited-edition, driver-focused convertible destined for the American market. Production for the America Roadster was limited at only 250 examples, and the model was only produced in 1992 and 1993. Its engine was a standard unit making 250 horsepower, but the special edition had the wide fender flares, suspension, brakes, and 17-inch Porsche Cup wheels of the 911 Turbo. The small rear seats were replaced with a parcel shelf with storage compartments underneath, adding to the sporting nature of the car. The wide Turbo-style body and lack of a rear spoiler gave the America Roadster an aggressive but sleek look.
The 1992 Porsche 911 America Roadster featured here is finished in the stunning factory color combination of Midnight Blue Metallic over a Light Grey supple leather interior and Navy convertible top. The 911 America Roadster was a limited edition model built to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Porsche 356 America Roadster that Porsche and Importer Max Hoffman introduced in 1952. Only 250 911 America Roadsters were built for the 1992 and 1993 model years which featured the Porsche turbo wide body with turbo suspension; they are the only true turbo wide body factory built 964 Porsche for the American market. This particular example was originally sold at Copans Motors in Pompano Beach, Florida, and today has only been driven 22,161 miles from new. A wonderfully maintained example, this America Roadster is accompanied by its original books, Porsche Production Specifications Certificate and copy of its original window sticker. We are proud to offer this 1992 Porsche 911 America Roadster to the most astute collector, investor or enthusiast who appreciates low mileage and limited edition Porsche’s.

Finance rates as low as 5.9%.
We know that classic car financing can pose a unique challenge. Although a vintage or exotic car can be an excellent investment, some financial institutions attempt to apply standard “used car” rules for financing a classic car, which in many cases can make loan approval difficult.
We work closely with many banking institutions that understand and recognize the collector value of classic cars and view them as an investment, which allows us to help you get the financing you need so that you can have the car you have dreamed of.
Terms available up to 144 Months

Daniel Schmitt & Company has described the above-mentioned vehicle to the best of our ability. However, as with all pre-owned automobiles, the condition is subjective, and we recommend that the potential buyer fly out to inspect, as well as test drive any of our vehicles before finalizing their purchase. If it is not feasible for you to personally perform an inspection, we will gladly help facilitate an inspection by an independent service center of your choice and will make delivery arrangements of the vehicle for this purpose. All vehicles are sold in “AS IS” condition. Extended warranty options are available on most vehicles. Please be advised that no verbal statements concerning any vehicle constitutes a representation or warranty of said vehicle. Our goal is to provide you with the best service and buying experience as possible. All purchases include an additional $385 processing fee which covers the processing of paperwork, pre-vehicle delivery costs, FedEx shipping fees, and a 30-day temporary registration plate so that the vehicle can be driven prior to the title transfer.

Feedback must be left at the time of delivery upon final inspection.
Pertaining to non-eBay winners: Anyone who has provided a deposit but whose purchase is still pending, please note that said vehicle will not be held and is subject to being sold at any time until all contingencies are removed and the purchase order is signed.

Condition Disclaimer
All used vehicles should be assumed to have some degree of wear. We do not manufacture our product. Each vehicle’s brand has its strengths, styles, tendencies, and shortcomings. Despite our best efforts to verify a vehicle’s mechanical condition, we are not able to warranty a manufacturer’s workmanship or a previous owner’s diligence in care of said vehicle. Due to this reason, all vehicles are sold “AS IS”. There are no mechanical guarantees, expressed or implied.
