The Porsche 550 was a racing car produced from 1953 to 1956. In that time only 90 Porsche 550's were produced, but it quickly established dominance in the 1.1- and 1.5- litre classes.
The Porsche 550 has a solid racing history, the first race it entered, the Nurburgring Eifel Race in May 1953, it won. The 550 Spyder would usually finish top 3 in its class. Each Spyder was designed and customized to be raced.
A 1957 Porsche 550A Spyder sold at auction in 2018 by Sotheby’s £3,814,118 but don’t worry this 1/18 diecast model is a bit more affordable than that.
