RM auction had more interesting Porsches than the Porsche Werks reunion
How were auction results? Strong/Weak ??
To be honest, I’m not an expert in the matter. And once you’re in the tent you keep hearing all of these numbers flying left and right and it’s hard to remember which goes where. But two that I remember are the coupe went for the higher end of the estimate and the McLaren speed tail went for a bit under the estimate. Not sure if there’s much of a conclusion to draw from that, but those are the only two that I can think of.

Mclaren SpeedTail. Pretty awesome!
Bo, thanks for sharing. Hopefully others will also add pics this weekend.
The 507 was Reserve Not Met at $2 Million top bid.
I spent most of my time talking to people at legends so, unfortunately I did not take too many pictures today but hopefully others will add. There were not many coupes this year. I believe 5 or so.

Back at the auctions in the afternoon, there was a beautiful Alpina z8.

How about a recently found low mileage Miura finished in polished metal?
Speaking of racing porsches there was the red IMSA 962 yesterday and a blue group C 956 today. So awesome!

Even the parking lots are entertaining
That McLaren looks to be wearing an iPhone case
I didn’t take too many pics at Legends either. The venue was pretty crowded and display cars like mine unfortunately had to park in a dusty dirt lot due to the last minute change in venue. It was a great collection of cars though, and I got to meet several Forum members. It was especially nice to have HBChris give my car a once over and give me some pointers. Only six E9’s by my count including a twin to my car owned by David parked thirty feet from me. It’s amazing that the venue change was pulled off so successfully. Many thanks to those that spent untold hours last week making it happen.
To me the most amazing car and story was the 1939 328 that got relegated to the dirt under a tree due to a registration mix up. The car was purchased by the pictured Corona California Indian Reservation raised Native American serviceman in Germany after WWII for $800. His two sons are almost done restoring the car and the whole family was there. They’re are a close wonderful middle class family from the St. Louis area with a very valuable treasure that they won’t part with. The owner was holding court with entertaining stories for anyone who showed interest. He’s still very bright and funny.
