All looking to see what the fall out is or not on some very tastey cars and memorabilia.
The gold 993 special is up also.
Very high priced estimates on some of the cars, especially the brochures.

A good mate of mine is out there at the moment. Just gone to watch with a mutual friend that has a car in the auction. It will be interesting to see the results

Some properly mixed results! 959 Dakar sold well above estimate at $5.4mil and the Project Gold 993 Turbo S went for well over $3.1mil. The other big lot the 956 barely got to 50% of estimated price!

Looks like most lots sold just below estimate with some cars that had no reserve selling considerably cheaper, Seinfeld’s 4.0 RS which was estimated at $ $800k to $1mil sold for $510k (one off spec car) . 993 GT2 sold for $580k well below estimate.

Should be able to get from the link above.
Some strong prices,some estimates hopefull and some cars not so great.
The white 356 speedster was a good price for such a car.
Just need to reinsure my memorobilia collectionsmile
Was looking for mark and co in the audience,the 3.0ltr rsr would be a good buy if the car is good.

There’s an App called Hammer Price which is really good and is free. Shows all the info you need and has links through to the auction house website. Has high bid price if a lot doesn’t sell as well. Updates during the auction but has historical info too, the trade all use it from what I know.

Yes some good results,the speedsters done well,Clear history is key,as for fresh restoration as new, at last people dont get.
The 959 models done well,the evo 993 cup /rsr struggled a bit as its now not a cup or rsr but a rsr spec car done by pmna,who do a proper job on these cars,a great fun car but not one of the super rare 22 rsr,as a standard cup it would possibley have done as well or better,as only 70 odd were made for that year from memory so a rare beast and a goodbuy as is.
