A Collector's Dream Auction!
Car enthusiasts, mark your calendars! Broad Arrow Auctions is primed to wow the Porsche community with its much-anticipated auction on April 26, 2025, at the Orange County Fairgrounds. This year's digital catalog features an impressive lineup of 55 Porsche collector cars, along with a treasure trove of Porsche memorabilia and even a half-scale Dakar Junior toy car.
Star Attractions: The 918 Spyder Weissach!
Leading the auction is the jaw-dropping 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder Weissach, painted in the iconic Martini Racing livery—one of only 15 units delivered to the U.S. This hypercar is not just a pretty face; its hybrid powertrain combines a 4.6-liter V8 with electric motors, delivering a blistering 887 horsepower. With a jaw-dropping sprint from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.5 seconds, this is a performance machine that turns heads.
Unforgettable Carrera GT Joins the Ranks!
Next to this marvel, the auction features the legendary 2005 Porsche Carrera GT—unmodified and boasting a mere 800 miles on the clock! Finished in GT Silver Metallic, this modern classic embodies the thrill of driving a naturally aspirated V10 with a manual transmission. Equipped with rare accessories and its complete factory luggage set, the Carrera GT is nothing short of a time capsule.
Expert Insights and Predictions!
Alexander Weaver, Senior Car Specialist and VP of Private Sales at Broad Arrow, expresses great enthusiasm: "The 918 is the most user-friendly of the 2013 hypercar trio. It's versatile, offers ample luggage space, and looks stunning with its top on or off. Plus, its Martini Racing livery makes this auction piece truly special." He adds that the Carrera GT is a nearly-new gem with extensive servicing history.
More Modern Open-Top Gems in the Lineup!
The auction won’t just stop at these two legendary vehicles. From 2019's Porsche 911 Speedster, estimated between $400,000 and $450,000, to the near-new 2024 Porsche 718 Spyder RS Weissach, there's a wealth of modern iconic Porsches awaiting eager bidders.
Why This Auction Matters!
Porsche values have remained strong post-COVID, and the 918 Spyder has seen particularly robust interest—truly reflecting its desirability among collectors. Broad Arrow aims to present a compelling assortment to a passionately dedicated audience.
A Look Back at Iconic Porsche Models!
Among the show's highlights includes a pristine, unrestored 1960 Porsche 356 B Super 90 Coupe with just under 50,000 miles, and a pristine 1989 Porsche 911 Speedster, alongside a rare 1974 Japanese market 911 Carrera with matching numbers.
