Classic topspot: a Porsche 550 Spyder

The Porsche 550 Spyder is a classic which still surprises car fanatics with its appearance. Nowadays it isn’t just because of its speed and power but more and more because of its classic appearance and the historical value the car has. This car deserves to have a type designation in gold.

We don’t know whether we are dealing with a real version or not. The model is produced until 1956 which makes a real one at least 56 years old. Several companies are making replicas nowadays and you can hardly see the difference between a replica and a real one. Under the hood we find a 1500cc engine which produces 110 bhp. You accelerate to 100 km/h in 8.2 seconds. Nowadays that’s not quite fast but 56 years ago this was the best you could get!
