We are equally excited to welcome first-time bidders and longtime collectors to join us in Atlanta at the Porsche Experience Center on 8-10 June for an exhilarating weekend of music, spirited track days, and of course all things Porsche.” 

The roster includes a highly collectible 1999 Porsche 911 Classic Club Coupe "Sonderwunsch" Factory One-Off with a value reference of $292,865 and Offered Without Reserve. Designed by Style Porsche Director of Special Projects, Grant Larson in conjunction with the Porsche Club of America (PCA) and equipped with a handmade ducktail spoiler evoking the iconic 1973 911 Carrera RS 2.7 and a double-bubble roof that pays homage to the 997 Sport Classic.

Another amazing highlight is the 2004 Porsche Carrera GT with an estimate of $1,500,000 - $1,800,000. Uniquely refinished by Porsche North Houston, a Porsche Classic Partner dealership in color to sample 'Speedster Blue', unique to the 356 'Pre-A' Speedster with documented service history and a clean Carfax.

Following the 2004 example, we have the 2005 Porsche Carrera GT with an estimate of $1,000,000 - $1,300,000. This exceptional vehicle is one of only 477 US-market Carrera GTs delivered in 2005, offered with a matching Dark Grey five-piece Carrera GT luggage set, and has a clean CARFAX report documenting two owners and consistent service visits from new.

One of the unequivocal highlights of the auction is the 1967 Porsche 910 with an estimate of $2,800,000 - $3,400,000. One of 27 Porsche 910 models produced for the 1967 racing season, this example achieved a First in Class at the 1969 Spa 1000 Kms and a 12th OA at the 1969 Nürburgring 1000 Kms to name a few, exceptionally well presented today having benefitted from a complete restoration by Paddy O'Grady.

Another show-stopping highlight is the 1984 Porsche 962 with an estimate of $1,000,000 - $1,300,000. This is the second customer 962 delivered by the Porsche Motorsports complex at Zuffenhausen, finished in iconic Coca-Cola livery and appeared in a Miami Vice episode filmed during the 1985 Miami Grand Prix. It also received a fourth-place overall finish at the 1985 Daytona 24 Hours with pole position and track record at the 1985 Sebring 12 Hours.

Porsche’s final road/race car, the 1964 Porsche 904 Carrera GTS with an estimate of $2,400,000 - $2,800,000, has a long-term, 53-year single, southern California ownership.
