This 1953 Porsche 356 Pre-A 1500 Super Coupé is a used car showing 120,516 km. It is equipped with a manual transmission. The car is finished in Pascha Red with a Beige interior.
The 1500 Super was the sporting version of the 356 in 1953, and this coupé already has the refinements of that period: the single, slightly bent windscreen, bumpers set away from the body and a fully synchronised gearbox. It spent many years with a single owner.
It has never been restored. Apart from one careful respray, it is original, still in the Pascha Red and beige leather it wore when new, and its Porsche birth certificate confirms matching numbers and colours. The body is straight and the paint presents well. The file runs from 1956 to today, with photographs, invoices and the Porsche brochures of the time.
The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands.
The Porsche 356 1500 Super uses the 1,488 cc air-cooled flat-four in Super tune, mounted behind the rear axle, rated at 70 PS (51 kW) at 5,000 rpm, with the fully synchronised four-speed gearbox of Porsche's own design, introduced in the autumn of 1952, and rear-wheel drive. From April 1952 a slightly V-shaped one-piece windscreen replaced the split screen, in the same opening. The standard 1500 gave 55 PS; the Super raised that to 70 PS.

The manufacturer's base list price was €7,056 in Germany, excluding options. This car is advertised at €224,500, 3082% above that figure. A list price is the launch price of the version without options, so a heavily specified car left the factory above it, and it says nothing about what the car is worth today. That 1953 list price is converted to euros with no adjustment for inflation.
120,516 km recorded, against a median of 51,898 km across the Porsche 356 advertised in Europe in 2026. It is therefore among the higher-mileage cars currently listed. Service records and ownership details should be checked against the documents held by the selling dealer.
