Last month, comedian and well-known Porsche fanatic Jerry Seinfeld gave the classic car world a shock when Gooding & Company announced it would auction off a few rare cars from Seinfeld’s extensive Porsche collection. Now however, the number has swelled considerably—from three to 18 cars in total—and they’re not your average vintage Porsches.
 
The auction house’s collection now includes such rarities as a 1959 Porsche 718 RSK, 2000 Porsche Carrera GT Prototype, and a 1973 Porsche 917/30 Can-Am Spyder.

Auction estimates haven’t been announced for the entire collection, but for reference, the initial three cars of the collection were previously estimated to bring at least eight million dollars. This is shaping up to be one for the history books.

All told, the full list includes the following, in chronological order:

1955 Porsche 550 Spyder
1957 Porsche 356 A Speedster
1958 Porsche 356 A 1500 GS/GT Carrera Speedster
1958 Porsche 597 Jagdwagen
1959 Porsche 718 RSK
1960 Volkswagen Beetle
1963 Porsche 356 B 2000 GS Carrera 2 Coupe
1964 Volkswagen Camper
1966 Porsche 911
1973 Porsche 917/30 Can-Am Spyder
1974 Porsche 911 Carrera 3.0 IROC RSR
1989 Porsche 911 Speedster
1990 Porsche 962C
1994 Porsche 964 Turbo 3.6 S Flachbau
1998 Porsche 993 3.8 Cup RSR
2000 Porsche Carrera GT Prototype
2011 Porsche 997 Speedster
2012 Porsche 997 GT3 4.0 Cup “Brumos Commemorative Edition”


It’s hard to pick a top seller from the list, however the rare 550 Spyders are heavily steeped in history and Seinfeld’s model is estimated to bring between five and six million dollars on its own.
