Ladies and gentlemen, the “Pinnacle Portfolio” is the largest and most valuable single-owner collection to ever be presented at auction. No kidding!
I guess RM Sotheby’s Auctions had to come up with something bigger after selling 78 cars from the Andrews Collection for a cool $54 Million. So they did.
Ridiculously rich people like to put together large car collections. Some might go a bit over the top, ending up with ninety cars like Jay Kay. Others have no taste at all, and only buy cars to show off their wealth like Floyd Mayweather. The Pinnacle Portfolio hides only 23 cars, but all of them are pretty special.
Let’s start with those going on sale without a reserve:
- 1974 Ferrari Dino 246 GTS
- 1993 Jaguar XJ220
- 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren
- 1956 Porsche 356 A 1600 Speedster
- 2005 Saleen S7 Twin Turbo
Real peasant’s cars indeed!
As for the rest, watch your head:
- 2006 Bugatti Veyron 16.4 “001”. Yes, the first production Veyron.
- 2012 Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport “300”. Because you got to have the 300th, with 1,200 horsepower.
- 1959 Ferrari 250 GT LWB California Spider. Of course.
- 1964 Ferrari 250 LM. Ready for Goodwood all the time.
- 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4. A blue one.
- 1985 Ferrari 288 GTO. For starters.
- 1994 Ferrari F40 LM. The final LM built.
- 1995 Ferrari F50. Gotta have that.
- 2005 Ferrari Enzo. No LaFerrari :(
- 1972 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona Spider. One of only 121.
- 2005 Maserati MC12. Brand new.
- 2008 Lamborghini Reventón. You and Ramzan Kadyrov!
- 1971 Lamborghini Miura P400 SV. SuperVeloce, or nothing!
- 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing. The original stuff.
- 2008 Koenigsegg CCXR. Still faster than everything else.
- 1988 Porsche 959. Ask Jerry or Bill if it’s worth it!
- 1967 Toyota 2000GT. The first U.S.-delivery and production left-hand-drive 2000GT.
- 1998 McLaren F1 LM. Not an original LM, but it has the GT’s interior as well as the High Downforce Pack.
Holy checkbook!
You can only choose one. Go!
