Agreed... $1,250,000 while several others so far have been well short. The cult prevails.

3 bidders, 2 in the room and a telephone bidder overseas. It went to the telephone bidder apparently so its heading to Europe ( factory museum, Prototyp Museum ??).
With the buyer's premium that's $ 1.375.000. I never thought it would fetch such a price.....A historic moment for the 911, a huge record price for a classic 911.....

Clearly it was the Slate Gray color that did it...
It was interesting to watch in persone, maybe the 911S will get more attention with the auction crowd. A woman was one of the bidders.
business case in Porsche sales?
I just admire how Frank did it, from purchase to sale and everything in between.Originally Posted by Jonesy78
Frank well done.

Compliment to the seller.
BUT i'm sorry, the price is CRAZY.
I'm a Mcqueen fan, as everybody, BUT there is a LIMIT to all.

Andrea apparently there were 3 bidders, IMHO the price is the market price (of at least last night ;-) ).

Indeed, that money will buy you a 904, Spyder or 3 nice 356 Carrera's. Don't even have to think about that one. I can see how the car would make an attractive piece for a museum etc. (lure in more visitors = more cash) In my eyes it is just a 911s nothing more, nothing less. However that is just in my eyes.
If one is arab, one russian and one chinese that's not THE market.
