Porsche Lover's Dream

Porsche vehicles are a regular site at auctions around the globe, mainly because they're incredibly popular, not to mention valuable, in many cases. Thus, we're constantly being treated to special offerings with each passing month, but it'll be hard to top the Carrera Collection sale that's coming from RM Sotheby's.

Two Separate Sales

This 86-car, single-owner collection is so big, in fact, that RM Sotheby's is splitting it up into two sales. The first is set to take place in Switzerland at the Hotel Meilenstein in Langenthal on July 7, where around 50 of those vehicles will be sold, and the rest will go up for grabs in Milan, Italy at the Palazzo Serbelloni on July 11.

Impressive Lineup

There are many amazing Porsche branded rides that will hit the block at both auctions, including not just one, but two different 1973 911 Carrera RS 2.7 Touring examples, a 1963 Porsche 356 B Carrera 2 2000 GS Coupé by Reutter, a 1963 Porsche 356 B by Reutter, and a 1995 Porsche 911 GT2 Evolution, to name just a few.

Exciting Opportunity

It is incredibly rare that a collection of Porsches of this quantity and quality comes to market," said Oliver Camelin, Director of Sales, Switzerland. "It features a wide and exceptional cross-section of 911s, many of which boast rare specifications or are limited-edition cars. With all cars offered across both the sales with no reserve, this is an exciting opportunity for Porsche enthusiasts.”

Italian Sale

The Milan iteration of the Carrera Collection auction also features some amazing Porsche vehicles such as a 1959 Porsche 356 A Carrera 1600 GT Coupé by Reutter that scored class wins at the 1959 Pontedecimo-Giovi and Aosta-Pila hillclimbs and a 1997 Porsche 911 Turbo S prototype.
