Check out the auction here: rmsothebys.com/en/home/lots/cc23
In today's episode, I'm exploring a secret bunker filled to the max with a collection of incredible Porsches and other exotica. I love exploring hidden collections like this, and all of these cars will be offered for sale with NO RESERVE with RM Sotheby's in early July.
The Switzerland auction happens on the 7th July, and the Italy auction happens on the 12th July.

@althejazzman Regular cars are intended to be mere transport, but IMHO, superbly engineered, significant model Porsches created as a result of experience gained from motor racing, should only be used sparingly, on special occasions on dry roads, so as to keep them in as fine condition as possible, and allow them to last as “survivor cars”, not needing to be restored. A car is only original, once!

@@kirksheldon7342 I worked for Porsche for three year's. Porsche is a PLC, it has share holder's, everything it does is to generate profit. Just because you find the cars really cool shouldn't dictate how someone that owns one should use it. If you own something you decide what you do with it - I agree, but so many people say cars should be driven and not stored, that is a blanket statement which essentially is false. Cars are made to be sold and the owner should do whatever they see fit with it.

@7:23 I don't think I have ever seen a Porsche with bumper lights as big as these. Thought it was my eyes or camera angle. Or a "Murican" spec bumper from that era. They are massive. Originally the blinker lights were orange (Eeew IMO). Reminds me of nowadays Citroën C3/4 or over designed Korean car brands with 3 rows of lights on the front, where bumper lights are bigger than head "almost build in hood" lights. The ones that look like a face of a spider with six eyes lol.

I'm so hopeful that these cars reach homes where the owners will enjoy driving them. A 930 Turbo with less than 1000 miles on the clock? What a waste of that car! I still remember getting one in NFS: Porsche Unleashed and thinking it was the greatest thing ever. I hate collections like these. Lovely to see the cars in such great shape, but knowing they were rarely enjoyed as cars is so disappointing.

Got mixed feelings about cars like this that have hardly been driven over the years then get sold on as little more than museum pieces at museum piece prices. These are driver's cars being garaged in underground bunkers by crusty old billionairs as inflation busting assets... such a waste. If rich people want to hoard appreciating items they should collect Ming vases etc. Imo!

Most Brits just say well it sounds better to me so I knowingly say it wrong….ok fine but when walking around looking at them respect the brand say it correctly and say it wrong at the pub or in your brain! It would be like me or a famous driver turned media man like Nico Rosberg saying “Austin Martin” instead of Aston Martin simply because he thinks it sounds the same and I think it sounds better and how it should be. Screw the history of the company screw their legends screw the founders screw the great machines built by them and it’s thousands of workers over the years yup Austin sounds better so we are gonna knowingly do it!!
