Introduced for the 1960 model year, the Porsche 356B Roadster marked the final evolution of the Speedster lineage, replacing the one-year-only Convertible D. Built on the T5 platform, the Roadster combined a more refined driving experience with purposeful styling updates such as raised fenders, elevated bumpers with vertical guards, and brake-cooling intakes integrated into the lower nose. Like the Convertible D, it offered roll-up windows, fixed coupe-style seats, and a sturdier convertible top with a wraparound rear window—making it far more livable than the original Speedster, while retaining its removable windshield and competition-ready spirit.

This 1960 356B Super 90 Roadster came from the factory finished in Silver Metallic and underwent a refurbishment in the late 2010s, including a repaint in its original color along with reupholstery in Light Brown leather with a matching Brown convertible top. It featured Porsche’s more performance-oriented engine option, positioned just below the more exotic Carrera variants, with engine work completed on the car including a carburetor overhaul in 2024 along with a new starter and battery in 2025. Compression tests were available in the gallery along with a couple receipts for service.

Over the last twelve months T5 356B Roadsters have averaged $172,700 with a low of $110,000 and a high of $291,000 for a White over Red Wilhoit-modified example sold at Gooding’s Monterey sale last year. Our Spotlight car failed to sell at a final bid of $216,000, and while this was a nice numbers-matching example with the higher-hp engine option, it showed a bit of wear since the restoration. All the money, in my opinion.
