Wow, just wow. Seems like it would be hard to wake up the next day without those cars but I guess its all relative. I wonder how many he has left in his collection. 10? 20? 100?

I only calculate $17M+...the buzz is these Porsches did NOT sell for the expected premium based on the Seinfeld connection.

Yeah, if that's really a numbers matching 550 original that is a bargain.

Wow, one extreme to the other. I would expect more in the range of 2 million. It's good to be Jerry.

I'd be curious to know what he paid for those same cars back when he bought them? 10M? less?

FYI the auction estimate for the 550 was $250,000, so at the figure it fetched imagine sieinfeld is fairly happy.......................................

You may be right with your numbers, where you get 'm from?

You are correct - Gooding's show 550 fetched over $5 million - making the total for Seinfeld over $22 million.

My apologies
