Cameron EittreimDecember 7, 2020

13: 1989 Porsche 911 Speedster – $65,480

The 1980s were a crazy time for sports car makers and Porsche was at the forefront. With the success of shows like Miami Vice, the company had become quite the fashion icon and the 911 Speedster was top of the line. The 1989 Porsche 911 Speedster was notable for its basic design and stellar driving capabilities. Interesting features like a backseat added to the car’s allure at a time when most automakers were stuck in transition.

The 911 Speedster doesn’t look like anything else that was on the market at this time, with black accents and serious wheels. Few cars have managed to captivate an entire generation the way that the 1989 Porsche 911 Speedster managed to, and Seinfeld now owns one.

12: 2004 Porsche Carrera GT – $440,000

Another exotic sports car that both Seinfeld and Leno have in common, the Carrera GT often gets a bad rap. The car is notoriously well-designed in the performance aspect, but other areas of the car could use rectification. The low design of the car drags on just about anything, and unless you are on the track all day this makes it impossible to drive. Performance is still at the top of the level and few cars can match the Carrera GT to this day.

Seinfeld, like Leno, has kept his model in pristine original condition, after all, maintenance on these things is so expensive who wants to risk it. The 2004 Porsche Carrera GT was a truly groundbreaking car in every sense of the word, and few exotic cars have come close to matching the performance.

1958 Porsche 356 A 1500 GS/GT Carrera Speedster — via: Top Speed

11: 1958 Porsche 356 Carrera Speedster – $1,540,000

This is the car that famously got Seinfeld sued after he sold it at auction. The car was later deemed to be inauthentic though Seinfeld said that he was duped when he purchased the Porsche. Nevertheless, the original 1958 Porsche 356 A 1500 GS/GT Carrera Speedster is a sight to see, and it’s apparent why these cars are so rare. The performance is near perfect, even for a car this old.

Few of these are still in good condition on the road, and it makes sense that Seinfeld would try to wrangle a buyer for his. Next time, we hope that he can find an authentic model because this is a sports car worth keeping.

10: 1966 Porsche 356 SC Cabriolet – $73,500

There were quite a few different Porsche models during the ’60s as the company was ever-evolving. The 1966 Porsche 356 SC Cabriolet built on the reputation of the car and the brand, offering the purest sports car for a fraction of the price. The air-cooled engine and straightforward interior made the car a breeze to live with. Few cars have managed to captivate the same kind of audience that the 1966 Porsche 356 SC Cabriolet did.

The car had an interesting history that helped to create the reputation that it has today. The auction prices for the car have ranged from $73k to even more depending on the market, so naturally, Seinfeld needed this car in his collection.

9: 1964 Porsche 911 – $258,000

Seinfeld obviously has many different variations of this car, but the base 911 is one of his favorites. Like Leno, he enjoys actually driving his cars, and the 1964 Porsche 911 is considered by many to be the pinnacle of driving. The car just screams for you to get behind the wheel, and this is true in many aspects. The straightforward design of the car is comfortable and you can expect to smell vinyl.

The 1964 Porsche 911 had a lot of advantages over other sports cars at the time. With the swooping lines and the easy-to-work-on motor, this was the true car for enthusiasts who wanted to own one.

8: 1969 Lamborghini Miura – $1,720,900

Seinfeld doesn’t own a lot of Lamborghini models, but the Miura does stand out from the crowd. The car was designed to be a Lambo track car and it did great in every aspect. The design of the car looks absolutely beautiful to this day, and its performance is still satisfactory. There were a few issues with these when they first hit the market, but those have since been ironed out. The Miura is a stellar exotic car that offers a great deal of quality.

The Lamborghini quality can be seen in every aspect of this car, and that’s a good thing because you don’t see it very often anymore. The valuation of these cars has gone through the roof and Seinfeld has one of the most original models you’ll see.

7: 1976 Lamborghini Countach – $1,095,000

Yet another car that Seinfeld shares with Jay Leno, the Countach has a unique look to it. So much so that the car still stands out in a crowd to this day. With the powerful V12 engine at its disposal, the Countach is lean and mean, lending to a fun driving experience. The car also does a great job of offering a comfortable experience, something that Lamborgini isn’t known for doing.

The comfort of the Countach was never the main selling feature of the car, it was the sheer speed that you can achieve. Seinfeld has managed to keep his Countach in clean and presentable condition and the current value of these cars is unbelievable.

6: 1997 Porsche 993 Cup 3.8 RSR – $1,100,000

This is an exotic car that managed to keep that same iconic styling of the 911 well into a new generation. The car was designed for speed, and you can tell that every aspect of the 1997 Porsche 993 Cup 3.8 RSR is dressed to impress. Many car fans call this the millionaire’s hot wheel because it looks like a toy car. But don’t let the looks fool you, because this is one of the most focused Porsche models to hit the road in recent years.

The look and feel of the car stand out from the crowd in a lot of aspects. The stitching, along with the wheels and fenders, makes the car amazingly fun to drive sports car. With the high price tag, this is a bundle of fun and a bucket list car that shouldn’t be ignored.

5: 2011 Porsche 997 Speedster – $400,000

Seinfeld has begun to collect modern Porsche models as we can see by this entry. The 2011 Porsche 997 Speedster was a limited-production car that was meant to reinvigorate the brand. When Porsche creates a new car, they generally keep the production numbers low, thus creating a rarity with every model. Performance-wise the 2011 Porsche 997 Speedster is about as fast as you can get for this kind of sports car.

The beauty of the exterior is only mirrored by a functional interior, with plenty of trunk space and all the usual Porsche fair. Don’t let yourself be fooled, though, this is a serious performance car that can burn some serious rubber on the track.

4: 1964 Aston Martin DB5 Coupe – $1.2 Million

Seinfeld doesn’t drive as much as he collects, which could explain how the 1964 Aston Martin DB5 Coupe got into the mix. The car is known affectionately as the James Bond mobile, making it a unique offering. The 1964 Aston Martin DB5 Coupe is much faster than you’d expect, and the exterior styling closely resembles an early Ford Thunderbird model. Some various upgrades and refreshes were done to the DB5.

Finding an original model isn’t easy, and trying to save money on it is going to be even more difficult. These early model Aston Martins are known to hold their values, so it makes sense that this one would cost so much.

3: 1983 Porsche 959 – $327,926

This was the car to have if you wanted a Porsche that no one could touch during the ’90s. Everything about this car screams successful broker on Wall Street, but that’s not even what the 959 was designed for. This car was designed to be the quintessential Porsche that would change the way that people looked at the brand. The 959 was elegant and elongated, the car looked a lot different than what Porsche was selling at the time.

The unique look of the car made it a lot different than the standard fare, and that was fine. The rarity of the car has increased what the value is for it, and you can expect to pay a lot more than you would for the average run-of-the-mill 911.

2: 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing – $4.62 million

Here’s one of the most expensive prizes in the Seinfeld collection, the 300SL Gullwing. These cars are valuable and very few collectors in the country have one because the car is expensive. The design is quintessential Mercedes for this time period, and performance is above average. You can expect to drive like never before in one of these as it grips the road with authority.

Off the line, speed wasn’t what the car was about, and authentic collectors knew this. The 300SL Gullwing is about as unique and original as you can get. There are a lot of aspects that make the 300SL Gullwing an instrumental piece of Mercedes heritage.

BMW 507 - Bayerische Motoren Werke AG — via: GM

1: 1957 BMW 507 Series II – $1.6 Million

Another expensive offering in Seinfeld’s collection is not a Porsche either, but a BMW. Oh the travesty, but you’d be wrong to think that because the 1957 BMW 507 Series II is a serious performance car. Take one look at the sleek lines and elegant exterior and you’ll see a sports car that was way ahead of its time. BMW went to great lengths to make sure that the car was unique in every aspect, from the head-turning styling to the interior which was a lot better than you’d expect a car in this price range to be.

With the pricing of classic cars continuing to skyrocket, the 1957 BMW 507 Series II will forever be etched in history for its unique design. Head-turning performance makes the 1957 BMW 507 Series II a worthwhile addition to any collector’s fleet.
