Just under three years ago, Jerry Seinfeld sold off 16 cars from his collection, ranging from a trio of 356s to a 962C. This high-profile sale with Gooding & Co. attracted substantial attention at the time, including several features on this site.

With everything gained by a factory-perfect restoration something inescapable is lost. With age, the cumulative effects of regular use build up on every car. Whether they're scuffs over the scuttle from loading luggage, or pock-marks accrued from entering in Le Mans, a car's wear is part of its history. Porsche themselves still display the 1987 Le …

Before any hearts get completely shattered, as mine was upon viewing this video, the 356 appears to be a replica. Nevertheless, the story remains the same.

According to 356C owner Catherine Sutton, "the whole point of owning an old car is that it's a choice rather than a chore." Despite the work that comes with owning something antiquated, that is a truth that rings through for all old cars. What does not ring true for all is the feeling of harmony Catherine gets from her 356C. In a classic Porsche …

Jerry Seinfeld's show Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee combines two of my most closely held loves in the world; cars and comedy. Coffee is another thing I appreciate, but really only as a vessel for milk and sugar. In any case, this show has been around for a few years, and was recently drafted to a new season on Netflix. While Jerry is an avowed …
