By Paulo Acoba
Here’s the full list of every Porsche Jerry Seinfeld sold and what it sold for at the 2016 Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance.
Winter has officially shed its dreary coat, the sun’s shining, temperatures are rising and it takes less time to warm up your car. Yup, it’s Concours time. The Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance unofficially kicks off the season with both a show and auction held at Amelia Island in Florida.
Although there were numerous pride’s and joys of hundreds of owners being auctioned off, gearheads were fixated on the 18 Porsches from Jerry Seinfeld’s collection.
When asked why he’s auctioning off so many of his Porsche’s Seinfeld replied, “…really just to see the look of excitement on the faces of the next owners who I know will be out of their minds with joy that they are going to get to experience them.”
Here are the official auction results for each Porsche that sold on Friday including what they estimated each would go for.
