Speedster: 1990 Volkswagen Cabriolet


This next car is something that’ll get you attention wherever you go. Good or bad…I dunno. But a Speedster version of the Cabriolet makes sense when you consider the Porsche-Volkswagen relationship from the early days and the success of Porsche’s 356 Speedster. Execution on this one is interesting, but the concept is solid. Find this 1990 Volkswagen Cabriolet offered for $1235 in Greene, ME via facebalm screenslap. Tip from Cory & Orlando.

Seller’s Description
Shoot me a offer on the car!!This car is one of a kind fun as hell to drive! No rust, car is lowered on a set of race lands everything else is pretty custom

See a better way to have some good “weekend vibes”? tips@dailyturismo.com
See that lake? Take this car, drive it onto the ice, sell raffle tickets as to when it sinks. Best thing you could do with this.
Looks like someone has been looking at too many of Frank Sbarro’s cars. The missing sibling between

More practical than a Lotus seven, faster than a Fiat Jolie, and way cheaper than either. I’m sure that if you bought this and parked it on the Montauk Highway with a for sale sign you could double your money.
Actually looks like fun.
I know I’ve seen an SCCA road race VW that had the roof and windshield chopped off, apparently a bizarre case of creative rule interpretation to bring down drag. Can’t seem to find a picture, but it was the first thing I thought of when I saw this car.
Or do like the 914 racers do with a Richie Ginther Windscreen

Recreational marijuana must be legal in Maine, right? Honestly if you put a proper rollbar and the correct windshield back on this thing it would be fine. At the seller’s price it seems like a low-risk weekend project car.
Don’t you love it when someone doesn’t even bother to wash their car before taking photos for selling their car?
I approve of this kind of automotive stupidity. I’m thinking the build quality is probably atrocious when inspected in person. Still, I’d drive it.
I’m shocked, SHOCKED there’s not more rust. Maine’s inspection standards are surprisingly tough, like Maine grandmothers.
