The comedian Jerry Seinfeld has spent close to 1.1 million euros in the purchase of the only Porsche 911 Classic Coupe manufactured.
A few weeks ago, Porsche was selling the only 911 Classic Coupe built at auction. It was a model that masterfully combined the characteristics of a restored 996 generation Porsche 911 Carrera inspired by the 2009 911 Sport Classic (997) and that Porsche had built as a tribute to the Porsche Club of America.
The lucky buyer about 1.1 million euros was spent and until today we did not know his identity. Well, ladies and gentlemen, we already know who he is and he is not a stranger and we are not too surprised that he was the one who has taken home this very special Porsche.

We talk about actor and comedian Jerry Seinfeld, which has one of the most impressive private Porsche collections in the country. In fact, according to comments, Seinfeld owns more than 150 vehicles and their value amounts to an amount between 47 and 140 million euros.
And it is that the American comedian has a great admiration and affection for the German brandof which he values his ability to approach car design with minimalism and also its efficiency and aerodynamics.
Going back to the 911 Classic Coupe that Seinfeld will keep in his garage, this model was inspired by the 2009 Porsche 911 Sport Classicas well as the current 911 Sport Classic, and was designed by Style Porsche Special Projects Director Grant Larson in collaboration with the Porsche Club of America.

The idea for its creation arose during a meeting between members of the Porsche Club of America (PCA) and Porsche Classic in which they asked what a collaboration would have been like if Porsche’s special manufacturing unit and the PCA had worked together in previous decades. They focused on the 2009 911 Sport Classic, Porsche’s first Exclusive Manufaktur series production model.
