These Are 10 Most Crazy Expensive & Rare Porsches Ever Sold
When it comes to breaking records for expensive cars nobody comes close to Ferrari. It takes more than $4.5 million to even break into the top 100 most expensive Ferraris ever. Ferrari still dominates the classic market but Porsche has been rising in the ranks for a few years now and things aren’t letting up. Porsche is a brand with a rich history that has lots of racing pedigree and nostalgia too.
That has helped Porsches grow from five- to six and seven digits in the last five years, with even models as late as early 2000s’ Carrera GT’s hitting near the million-dollar mark on a model that used to be worth $300,000. Hagerty data that combines public auction sales and private sales shows that the 1974-1977 Porsche 911 has increased the most in average sale price of any classic car this year, with a jump of 154 percent in value over 2014.
Porsches—especially the 911s made between 1970 and 1980 and the 356 Speedsters made in the 1960s—have growing appeal because of several factors. For one thing, they are reliable. Secondly, Porsches from this era have a wide entry point for prospective buyers. If you’re savvy, you can find an old 911 in the five-figure range. Or you can find one for more than $1 million, if that’s more in your price range. The same goes for those little 356s. The thing is that these model still don’t make our top 20 list. That list is made of the rarest and most expensive Porsches sold and that means we’re talking more than $2 million. That’s right, you needed millions (plural) to get your hands on one of the highly sought after models of Porsches.
Here it is then, the most expensive Porshes ever.
