Supposedly 25% of the money is to be donated to charity:

"The car will be auctioned off in February, and though RM Sotheby’s doesn’t give an early estimate, 25 percent of its selling price heading towards research for curing cancer in children, financed by the Gustave Roussy foundation. So if you're in the market for a stunning 911 R, you might want to head to Place Vauban in Paris next year and place your bid.

Prices of 911R surges:

http://www.motor1.com/news/65740/por...ctors-compete/

"In the Land Down Under, Porsche established a starting price of $404,700 for the 25 RHD units, and according to Motoring the value of these cars could increase to as much as 3M AUD based on the appreciation rates noticed in other regions.

The 911 R is undoubtedly on the lips of many Porsche collectors and from this we can deduct pricing for used models will only go up with time as long as the cars are going to remain in a pristine condition. Let’s hope these insane markups are not making current owners consider their prized possessions as an investment. Porsche made the 911 R to be driven, not sit in a garage and wait for its value to increase only to allow the owner flip it for a massive profit.

I think you'll find that it's only 25% of any amount that above the (not-disclosed) reserve price that 'goes to charity'. Article puts a better spin on it.

Good catch. Furthermore, that amount goes to a 'foundation', not to charity. If 10% of that goes to charity it'd be a lot. So basically nothing, as the reserve wasn't disclosed. What a great country.
