Stärke Speedster releases latest build

looks like AZ,,trying too hard..looks to swooptydoopty to me.. whatever floats ur boat.

Where's the drive video?

310 HP could be a ton o' fun .... but has an actual Starke car ever been purchased and seen on the road? All I remember was renderings and one show car.

It would be nice if their website showed production of the cars at various stages of the build and their facilities.

I like it. The body seems much more proportional now and those wheels look really good.

This car appears to be the one that they have used in their promos and and on their website.

Their 595 concept coupe, based on a 2008-2016 Cayman is pretty cool.

That is ridiculous.

Now that's a real Sleeper!  would be fun blowing doors off muscle cars who think it is a 90hp bug engine.  I like the creativity in coming up with something NEW and OLD at the same time.

no thanks!

$250K U can get a 2021 turbo TT 911 that will make that car look like Barney Flintstone..

Price aside, I’m very impressed. Beautiful tribute with modern power & amenities.

Flintstone or not, it looks like a lot of fun.

I'm with you. No thanks.

For the right buyer, it's a beautiful car.  Very well appointed, etc.

The shape is still a little strange...

$250,000 for the base model?

For real?

That doesn't even deserve commenting on.  

I feel like we're at a Carnival side show..........

It's looking better, but the haunches aren't right and the dashboard doesn't fit the car. However, what do you expect for small change like 250,000 shekels?

Surely those are placeholders and not accurate. 8500 for an exhaust and 7500 for carpet? Gold emblems $5000?

That car for 100-120K plus donor might sell a few.

On their previous website they offered three levels of "Speedster like" cars and no coupe. They have always been Boxster based, but you could provide one or they would source one for you.

I believe their upgrades were similarly priced. Crazy!

I wonder if they have ever sold a car?

With prices like that, you don’t have to sell a lot.  

The first time I saw that BSC price list I thought “that looks like someone who doesn’t really want the work.”  Kind of like me asking for an $1K day rate on gigs I didn’t really want to do.

Cool conversion, reasonably priced.
