Jerry Seinfeld – 1959 Porsche 718 RSK
Famed comedian and auto enthusiast Jerry Seinfeld has loved Porsches since he first purchased a 911 Carrera in the late 1980s. From there, he has gone on to amass a stunning collection of Porsches that would even give Richard Hammond of Top Gear fame reason to do a double-take. Perhaps the most interesting of all the Porsches that Jerry has collected over the years is the one that will never see the streets on a rainy day: the open cabin 718 RSK, No. 19 of the few dozen ever built. A report last fall in Business Insider says that “the Porsche RSK is not only a historically significant car, it’s now also an incredibly expensive car.” But purchasing one of these sleek little machines is little cause for concern for the 60-year-old comedian, who is reportedly worth over $800 million, even when they typically auction for an astounding $3.3 million a pop.
Price Tag: $700,000
Seinfeld, an automobile enthusiast and avid car collector, owns one of the largest Porsche collections in the world. He rented a hangar at the Santa Monica Airport, in Santa Monica, California, for an extended period of time during the 1990s, for storage of some of the vehicles in the collection. After his return to New York City he was involved in an extended dispute with several neighbors over the proposed building of a $1.4 million multi-story garage to contain the 46 cars. The centerpiece is a $700,000 Porsche 959, one of only 337 ever built. But unfortunately for him, Jerry can’t drive it! The car doesn’t pass US emissions test!
