Gooding & Company is offering no fewer than 28 Porsches at the traditional Ameila Island auction on March 11, 2016. Supplemented by four Volkswagens, the cars from Zuffenhausen and Wolfsburg thus make up more than a third of the entire offer, followed by Ferrari (12 cars) and Mercedes-Benz (7 vehicles). The remaining 23 brands are each represented by one to three vehicles.

Jerry Seinfeld collection

The reason for the opulent Porsche offer is that part of the Jerry Seinfeld collection can be sold, which shows an interesting section of Porsche's brand history from the 356 to the modern 997, in which racing cars also play an important role.

One of the only 15 original 911 Carrera 3.0 IROC RSR models from 1974 will also go under the hammer. The cars were built for Roger Penske's IROC series at the time, the car on offer was driven by Revson, Follmer, Joncock and others and, according to Gooding, has a complete history.

We will find out on March 11, 2016 whether the USD 1.2 to 1.5 million will be paid.

But there are also less racing and more rustic options, such as a 1958 Porsche Jagdwagen, which is expected to find a new owner for USD 350,000 to 425,000.

Trend towards modernity

The Gooding offer from March 11, 2016 also demonstrates once again that the auction houses cannot resist the trend towards relatively new cars. Just five pre-war cars meet 15 post-war cars up to 1959, 19 1960s vehicles and 22 1970s representatives. 20 cars are from the 1980s or the following decades, six of which are representatives of the 21st century alone, the latest being a Porsche 997 GT 3 Cup from 2012.

American exotics

Of course, the international portfolio also includes a number of original American classics, such as a Kurtis, two Cord, a Chrysler and a legan Buick Super Estate Wagon from 1940 with a wooden station wagon body, which was estimated at around USD 275,000 to 325,000.

In a completely different price region is the super classic Duesenberg Model J Disappearing Convertible Coupe from 1931 with bodywork by Murphy. The elegant and fast American was estimated at USD 2.5 to 3 million.

The Ford GT40 is certainly one of the American rarities, especially as a road-going sports car from 1966. At that time, Ford dealers were almost unable to sell the expensive and impractical sports car, which is astonishing when you look at the estimated price of USD 3.2 to 3.6 million.

The unusual from Europe

It is unlikely that a Fiat 130 Coupé has found its way into a Gooding auction all too often.

It is also fitting that these cars were not originally imported into the USA and the car is therefore even more exotic from a US perspective. The estimate is USD 40,000 to 60,000, the elegant dark blue coupé is offered without a reserve price, as are 36 others, which means that the "no reserve" part accounts for almost half of the lot list.

Another rarity is certainly the 1959 Osca Tipo S-273, which was driven by Enise McCluggage at the 12 Hours of Sebring in 1960 and ran in Briggs Cunningham's racing team. Seen in this light, the USD 650,000 to 800,000 is quite reasonable.

Almost one million USD on average

In total, the 80 vehicles were valued at around USD 76 million (EUR 68 million, CHF 75 million), which is why the average value of a car is USD 952,000 (EUR 857,000, CHF 942,000).

In general, the value expectations seem to be quite high, as the 1976 Ferrari 308 GTB with plastic bodywork for USD 275,000 to 325,000 clearly shows.

For beautiful days and hours

The most expensive car in the auction is a Ferrari 250 GT SWB Californa Spider from 1961, which made its appearance in the film "Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow" (original title "Ieri, oggi, domani") with Marcello Mastroianni and Sophia Loren.

Now the open Ferrari, which has never been shown in public since 1983, is expected to realize USD 15 to 17 million.

Hardly less rare, but virtually unknown, is the 1953 Muntz Roadster, one of only four two-seater roadsters built by Earl Muntz at the time. The dark car, which cost almost twice as much as a Cadillac when new, is now expected to find a new owner for USD 250,000 to 325,000 who is enthusiastic about the snakeskin vinyl interior.
