The Gen 2 Speedster
The Gen 2 Speedster is the most advanced build we've ever produced. Fully road-tested, and ready for the discerning driver. Built on a modern 718 platform and refined to Stärke perfection, it combines performance, craftsmanship, and timeless design. Each one is handcrafted to order, with limited availability for 2027 builds.
It's not time travel, but it's close
The Stärke Speedster is the ultimate expression of iconic style & modern performance. It's at home in your driveway or the local museum of modern art. Stärke was born from the vision that iconic 1950s design doesn't have to mean 1950s engineering. With our Gen 2 Speedster you can have the best of both worlds, a coach built sculpted body that literally stops traffic mated to a reliable drivetrain that won't. All of that wrapped up in any color combination you desire that's bound to start conversations.
Your Gen 2 Stärke Speedster
No two Stärke Speedsters are alike. You choose the colors, the interior materials, the wheels, the performance level, and the details. Whether you lean toward heritage-inspired or completely original, this is your chance to build a Speedster that reflects your style, and your story.
Classic Style. Modern Power.
Beneath the hand-shaped bodywork of every Gen 2 Speedster lies a modern 718 platform, offering the kind of performance that turns heads for more than just its looks. Whether you choose the base model with 300 horsepower, the S with 350 horsepower, or the GTS 4.0 with up to 394 horsepower, every build is available with a 6-speed manual or 7-speed PDK transmission. Paired with electromechanical power steering, active stability management, and a precision-balanced chassis, the Gen 2 delivers a responsive, refined driving experience, without compromising the safety and timeless silhouette that defines a Stärke Speedster.

Stärke Speedster Gen 2 FAQ's
Reimagine Classic: Engineered for Tomorrow
What is the Stärke Speedster Gen 2?
The Stärke Speedster is a custom-built vehicle based on the 2017+ 718 Boxster platform. It combines high-performance driving with luxurious craftsmanship, delivering a modern take on the classic roadster experience.
Can you build a right-hand drive version?
Yes. We can build on right-hand-drive 718 donors and ship the finished car back to you.
Do you provide the donor car?
If you have a 2017+ 718 that hasn’t been in an accident, we can use your car. If not, we can source one for you as part of our $189,000 turnkey build.
How do I know what is the right donor car?
We look for four basic things:
- Low mileage 2017+ 718.
- No accidents in the car's history.
- If you have a color combination in mind, it's best to start with a donor that has the desired interior color.
- Choose the 718 model with the horsepower that best fits your needs.
Pricing
Pricing varies slightly based on customization, and whether or not you supply the donor 718.
Base price: $135,000 if the donor car is supplied to us, or $189,000 if Stärke finds and supplies the donor car, which is a "hands free" option for you. A $5,000 deposit reserves your build slot and goes toward the total. The balance is paid in thirds as the build progresses.
Can I customize my Speedster?
Yes! Every Stärke Speedster is fully customizable. From bespoke interior finishes to performance options, we work with you to create a vehicle that matches your vision and driving preferences.
What kind of performance can I expect?
Performance depends on the donor you choose: 300 HP from the base 718, 350 HP from the S, or up to 394 HP from the GTS 4.0 flat-six, with a 6-speed manual or 7-speed PDK. Exhaust, suspension and brake upgrades are available as part of your build.
How long does it take to build a Stärke Speedster?
Typically, a Stärke Speedster takes 6 to 12 months to complete, depending on the complexity of your build and the level of customization. We provide regular updates throughout the build process.
Where are your vehicles built?
Our vehicles are meticulously hand-built in our Grandview, MO facility, ensuring each Stärke Speedster reflects the highest standards of engineering and craftsmanship.
