Jerry Seinfeld is one of the world’s biggest Porsche car collectors, and one of his cars, a 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera Targa, sold at auction for $164,000.
This Porsche 911 Carrera Targa is powered by an air-cooled 3.6L M64 flat-six engine with 282 hp (210 kW) and 250 lb-ft (340 Nm) of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transaxle and an optional limited-slip differential. It is mounted on two-piece 17″ Speedline wheels wrapped in 205/50 front and 255/40 rear Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 N3 tires. At the end of last year, the car was serviced when the transmission fluids and oil, fuel filter, air filter, spark plugs, drive belts, distributor vacuum line, engine insulation, and shifter shaft seal were replaced.
The car is finished in Polar Silver, has been properly maintained and is in good condition. According to Seinfeld’s statement, he used this car to go to the filming of the last episodes of the Seinfeld series, between 1996 and 1998. It is equipped with xenon headlights with washers, fog lights, power-adjustable mirrors, a speed-activated rear spoiler, a “basket handle” fixed rear spoiler with an integrated third brake light, a rear window wiper, dual exhaust outlets, Porsche-branded calipers over cross-drilled rotors at all four corners, and Bilstein shocks with M030 springs.
Inside, power-adjustable seats are upholstered in Midnight Blue leather that also covers the door panels, dash and rear bench, with matching floor mats. In front of the driver are a leather-wrapped steering wheel and a six-digit odometer showing 26,228 miles (41,843 kilometers). Additional equipment includes cruise control, a Becker-Porsche CR-210 cassette stereo, a Hi-Fi sound system, and air conditioning.
The car has a clean Carfax report that shows no accidents or other damage. It comes with manufacturer’s literature, and a clean California title in the name of the owner’s LLC.
