After unveiling the 911 Speedster just ahead of the
2019 NY Auto Show, Porsche has now come out with the optional Heritage Design
Package, adding retro-inspired styling and design elements to an already classy
convertible. The Heritage Design Pack is available exclusively with GT Silver
Metallic pain, while the front bumper and the front fender “arrows” are painted
white as a tribute to the golden days of motorsport.
Meanwhile, the “gumball” styled white graphics on
the front luggage compartment and doors were inspired by historic Porsche 356
models – although the customer can order the car without these stickers if he
or she desires a cleaner look. As for the ‘Porsche’ decal on the sides, it only
adds to the classic theme of the Speedster.
Opt for the Heritage Design Pack and you also gain
Platinum Satin 20-inch center lock wheels, with an option to have them painted
Silver. The calipers of the standard PCCBs are painted in Black and also come
with white ‘Porsche’ lettering. Other exterior touches include the historic
Porsche crest on the “frunk” and wheels, as well as ‘Speedster’ model
designations in gold at the rear and on the sides of the streamliners.
Then we come to the interior, which features a
distinct classic look with a two-tone leather (Black and Cognac) aesthetic.
Full Bucket Seats are standard and are upholstered in Cognac leather, while the
historic Porsche crest is embossed in the headrest. You’ll also find GT Silver
Metallic (the color of the exterior) on the seat backs as well as on various
interior trim pieces, while more Cognac was used for the 12 o’clock center
marker on the steering wheel, and on the center console lid – the latter
getting embossed ‘Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur’ lettering too.
Last but not least, there is the raised ‘Speedster’
model designation on the interior trim, and the limited edition plaque situated
between the seats, both in gold. If you’re lucky enough to own one of these exclusive Porsche models,
you can also get a high-performance Flyback-Chronograph with the Werk 01.200 in
house movement. The timepiece boasts Heritage Design-specific elements such as
a carbon fiber dial and rotor, the latter modeled after the car’s center lock
wheel.
As if that wasn’t impressive enough, the leather
strap and stitching are made from genuine Porsche interior leather and threads.
