Perhaps a collector passing on?

From the rumors that I’ve heard, it’s this guy:

Not a rumor, it’s actually one of the worst kept “secrets” ever.

“I don’t know what dumb stuff you and your partners were doing at the office but I’m sure as hell not selling the house, if you want to stay married get rid of that stupid white Porsche car thing you have been obsessed with.”

Looks like that collection would cover prob only cover half of the $23m if that

Interesting. I read that article but still don’t see evidence of the connection. I guess you guys have the inside scoop.

Yeah, article wasn’t meant to be evidence but that’s the guy. For a real estate developer, he has almost zero online presence and that’s about the only mention you’ll find of him online.

Pretty crazy in that's it appear to be new money. New ill gotten money, but still new money. When I saw the collection, I immediately thought old money. Having to pay all that money is one thing. Having your braggin' rights stripped from ya, well that's just the cherry on the top.

I know the guy is extremely fastidious and picky about the cars he buys and their condition. Goes to great lengths for originality such as sourcing original tires for all the cars at great expense.

There was a cobalt blue in Switchcars’ latest IG story. Not sure if it’s available or not but someone may want to reach out if interested.

Thanks Josh!
hope someone picks that one up. Very few cobalt cars and due to that they don’t come up for sale frequently.

Depending on spec, I'd be tempted to "switch" my .2, well maybe

It's a great color but it's no .2 car. I think you would miss the performance.
