The 962 continued living the Miller High Life after retirement from competition at the end of the 1989 season, spending the next decade and a half in the lap of luxury in a private collection. It then took a trip to the Historic Porsche Collection, joining many of its 956 and 962 brethren on adventures, such as its reunion with Bell at the 2005 Goodwood Festival of Speed. The duo also appeared at Rennsport 3 and Daytona in 2007.

Still dressed in gold today, this 962 is worth a lot of gold: it’s expected to go to a new home for $2 million to $2.5 million when it hits the block on August 25. Not a bad price to pay to live the Miller High Life.
